    Here's a piece I did about one of our sponsor's, Boardwalk Ferrari. They said yes the first known 599 6-speed conversion project...

    I'd be interested in a California conversion.

    The reality is F1 and DCT are great for the track and 90% of street drivers. But, there are a few of us who really enjoy shifting. It may be slower, but who cares? One of the main joys of my 550 Maranello was doing a power shift from second to third without the hood dipping. Takes practice, but when you nail it, the feeling is really cool.

    Yeah, I know, I know, I'm a dinosaur, but I'm not dead yet.

    Wow! US-based 599 owners are a fortunate bunch once these guys have got the process buttoned down!

    I would buy a 599 now just to have the conversion done!
