    If you don't want to open the bonnet everytime when you plug in your Ctek.
    Get a 2,5 meter wire from Ctek, cut the the male connetctor, fix 2x 6mm O connectors and fix it at the battery.
    Put the wire inside the engine bay to the front grille and fix the female connector there.

    Wow!! Sounds amazing. Must be a thrill to drive the most powerful, fastest stick shift car ferrari has ever made. Not many will be able to experience that!

    Whilst I didn’t mind the F1 transmission.

    This is on another planet.

    I think you will find that people start to mop up the 599’s to convert them!

    I just wish Ferrari would come to the part like Aston Martin has in the Vanquish.

    Not to mention that Ferrari used to rebody and re-engine cars in the 50’s and 60’s.

    They still rebody them for a few $M. Reengine, nope, emissions testing too expensive.

    Thanks! I think the yellow accents, calipers, caps, and shields are perfect against the black. The shields were on the car when I bought it. They are not recessed into the fenders so I think they were added after leaving the factory.

    Marrone was a pretty popular color for Dinos and Daytonas but have never seen a Maranello in that color. May be one out there, just have not seen photos of one.

    You are speaking @p1turbo s language for sure.

    I don't know if he has posted up in awhile regarding his 993 but he has a gargantuan miles on it #HeroStatus

    Earlier this year I set out to buy a silver 993 4S and a lot of people told me to only get the 2S.

    They were so hard to find and over priced for what they actually are, so I ended up buying a silver SLS.

    You guys are going to give me a complex..... ;-)
    Why don't I have a 993 in my current stable! Harumph!

    this photo from a lifetime ago was a great day…SF to Legget where the drive thru redwood tree is and then Highway 1 all the way back. LONG day but a LOT of curves.

    I really should recreate this photo with my 550.

    I think that round trip was something like 515 miles that day….i live 60 miles further south now so that really would be a long day….

    I LOVE my kids but wow there was SO much free time back then! (Before kids)
