    Great, great, car mdavid18. The interior is tan, if I'm not mistaken?

    Enjoy her in the best of health!

    My little V8 Mondial has been a perfect daily driver for the past two years, but if I had my choice of any Ferrari - yours is exactly the car I would have. Perfect to enjoy on the road, and a monster on the track.

    Enjoy in good health!

    F1, also has the fiorano control and handling ECU (so the dealer says that they installed for the first owner.. I am the 2nd) but not the entire fhp.

    my car has a carpeted rear shelf. was thinking about doing a quilted lether shelf. does that look cheesy and will it add or subtract from the car's value if I ever choose to sell it?

    According to his profile he's 13, so no driving. :)

    I join the others in congratulating you on the car. Hope to join you in a year or so. Until then I'll just carry on lurking in this forum.

    lol.. I was barely able to figure out how to get a picture on this site. The car sounds great but I guess you'll have to take my word for it..

    anyone recommend the custom/hidden radar installation or better off with just plain old suction cup on windshield?

    Personally, I really like the look of the quilted (aka 250-style) parcel shelf. Here is a photo of one. Granted its in a '01 550, but it should look no different in your 575.

    As long as you don't go crazy and quilt everything as some owners have done, I think the upgrade will really round out the car. The rest of it looks spectacular.
