    Just finishing details on my 2000 456 MGT for the upcoming Cavalinno at Palm Beach.
    I'm now coming into 5 years with this Ferrari and it is almost ready. The car took Platinum the year before I bought it and I am going to try again this year.

    A few updates have been made, valve guides and seals along with full replacement of anything that could be fixed or replaced while the engine was apart. Interior and body have been worked on by me for the last few years. No real problems, just getting the leather back and paint back to good condition. I am lucky that the dash has not shrunk. Only the back deck needed a fix for that problem.

    The best fix was taking out the middle muffler and running straight pipes to the stock rear mufflers. The car woke up, and really drives and runs very well.
    I will keep you posted!

    Beautiful 456M! My rear shelf has pulled back a little, maybe quarter inch hall around. Still looks OK, a few waves in the leather though. Dash leather shrinking some, mostly above airbag to center. Your dash looks perfect!

    Looks like blu Pozzi!

    very nice car. i like the dark blue carpets much more than the beige ones.
    My TdF blue/beige 456 MGT has the blue carpets too.
