    Not as far as I know, but I bought it several months ago and previous owner did not mention anything about car lowering. It is euro version, if there is any difference in height between countries.

    Looking good! To be honest I like the original wheels better.

    Me too, 22 inch looks oversized, especially on steel brake disks, but I got both sets with the car.

    Nice wheels, but looks like the car needs to be lowered a bit. It appears to be riding too high with those wheels.

    I like the 5-spoke design too.

    Thanks, not sure how many LHD, not seen any other ones yet but for me this is the way they were meant to be! Pictures were taken by a spotter as I was driving by Sloane street. The guy knows how to shoot cars ...

    When the picture was taken the car was only lowered at HGTE level. It has now been lowered a bit more (rear only) after fitting H&R sport springs. No spacers. The car is fitted with MPSS 315 back and 255 front (same setup as the F12).

    My favorite photo of a 599? Well, it's the one of the car sitting in my garage.

    I thought I would share this. Love this picture of the interior. I think the 612 has one of the most beautiful interiors of any car.

    This colour of red is very hard to capture with a digital camera. It always comes out too intense. In reality its much softer and classier than photos suggest with a muted pastel quality. Notice the grey and black Alcantara on the central tunnel, door bottoms and footwells. It extends to rear parcel shelf, armrest and trunk.

    from the launch of the 612 GP Edition:
    "The 612 GP programme was the result of an idea by new Swiss Ferrari boss Giulio Zauner to celebrate Ferrari's 40th anniversary in Switzerland and the anniversary of their first Swiss Grand Prix win in 1949. The dark grey car - of which 9 will be built - features, the HGTC handling package (including carbon-ceramic brakes) bi-colour paint treatment with the 612 Scaglietti's famous side "scallops" finished in a silver-grey colour and colour-coded brake calipers. Inside the opulent interior is finished in a very eye-catching red and grey trim, with the lower dashboard, seat front sections, central tunnel sides, door panels and lower half of the sports steering wheel all glistening in an eye-catching red. A special plaque, imprinted with an outline of the historic Berne track, stamps on the 612 GP its unique feel."

    Thanks! Gavin is a high school student and amazingly talented and he used a technique called "light painting". When we took the photos I thought it was way too dark but he was able to capture the ambient lighting almost like night vision googles. I had never seen anything like it before but then again I grew up at a time when cameras used film!
