    Gentlemen

    You know what they say all good things come in threes, well I am 2/3 the way there. This week got delivery of 2 Brand New 599's to replace the old ones which have found new homes.

    The second one is a special and the first one even more special. Played around with the specs on both and had Ferrari do a custom paint job on one (paid through the nose). Had a few performance modifications as well on one of them just to see how it would differ against the other. I will post pics of both in depth in a bit but here is a glimpse.

    No 1

    Black/Silver, chose to go without shields (makes the car look longer and more elegant) and trusted cuccio leather (good old world combination). Full carbon, full leather, full luggage, etc, etc.........

    No 2

    Black/Black, non metallic, full carbon, full leather, alacantra roof with red stitching, red seat belts, red cross stitching to rear luggage panel plus lots more.

    Will post new pics when I get some time. Hope you enjoy.

    Mike

    the two-tone is an interesting look, and yes it elongates the car esp w/o the awful shields.

    i like that the interioer has black carpets. tan carpets have never looked good on the cars.

    Firstly, the Black/black version is pure style. But I admire both the cars, and you the owner. Good going with that order; and enjoy....

    Not a fan of two tone but it does look like you carried it off rather nicely. Especially without the shields and subtle silver calipers blend well. Another way it might have been done was the cuoio interior on the solid black car and silver interior for the two tone silver/black car. The silver interior is unique compared to what many other customers have chosen, great choices there! Thanks for sharing.

    Very nice x 2! I particularly like the two tone version - it's great - very distinctive. And well done for leaving off the shields - makes the car look so much longer and better in my view. Enjoy!

    Not sure about the two-tone exterior but the interior combination looks stunning especially with the black carpets. If I had chosen black paint, I would have gone for that combination without a doubt.

    Would like to see more of the black with red stitching interior as that was my choice with rosso corsa paint.

    Mike gets two of each car he buys. I think it's because he lives in two different cities. Last time I think one of the 599s was for his brother to drive.

    Congrats Mike! Beautiful cars!

    Congrats Mike! Your cars are truly beautiful, you are a gentleman with excellent sense of style!

    I especially love the two tone 599, I think it's extremely unique and original.

    Btw, is the black 599 completed? Your rims seem to be missing the caps in the centre.

    The two tone is jaw dropping! Very, very nice. The black one on the other hand ... is so good looking as well. Stunning pair.

    Enjoy,
