    Announcement!!! Yesterday I collected the 550 fresh from servicing and fitted with a new custom-made centre-pipe exhaust replacement. The centre pipes are now parallel and UNSILENCED. The part was made by Ferrarifixer and fitted very easily. The sound is AWESOME!!!!!!!!! While still civilised at idle, wait until 3000-3500 rpm.... accelerating in tunnels it is now much louder than a 360, and thanks to the reduced backpressure (plus BMC air filters on the intake side) the engine is also more lively - it feels like it has gained 30HP or so. Guys, be ready (especially Cinquevalvole with his Fuchs F355 :) )... my car will no longer be a shrinking violet in the sound department!!!! :D :D :D :D

    Andrea,
    I really want to hear it! On your way to Tuscany you will have plenty of chances to test the new sound device in tunnels...
    See you soon.

    Let's discuss that over a bottle of vino rosso on our fattoria veranda!
    But talk is still silence in comparison to engine sounds. :D

    That sounds like a solid plan. The best thing is that we contact Wolfgang as soon as we know what time Veerle and I will meet the UK gang (around Aachen). Then he can decide if he wants to wait for us or already drives ahead to steal the best room.

    PS - Does any of you have a portable GPS system? It would be very useful, finding your way around Lake Constance is not always straightforward...

    I recently installed the new Becker Indianapolis Pro 9752. Great inconspicious combination of radio/cd/mp3/bluetooth telephone and navigation.
