    FWIW, I think it's a good move. I'd go for it. Best of luck with your decision.

    The Scaglietti is nice but how often do you use the the rear seats? A Superamerica can be used as an aggresive sports car but also an easy going (convertable) grand tourer for cruising around. There is also the added bonus of it being a limited production Ferrari, 1 of only 559 made. Also that color combo would look great on the SA!

    I say go for it!

    You will love the superamerica, but I think over time you might miss the 612.
    I have been fortunate enough to drive some hard miles in the 612 and it is an Incredibly capable vehicle for a big car and such and improvement over the 456, I worry you may find yourself missing some of the newer features.
    By the way, just looked at you profile, looks like we share the same interest!
    Find a place and I'm buying!!

    I have had the 612 for over a year now , i will miss it but its time to move on
    i am looking forward to the superamerica ,i told myself the next f car i got would be a f 1 (612 is also a 6 speed) but the superamerica is also a 6 speed but i fell in love with the color combo . i guess no drinking coffee or talking on the cell when driving

    Get it. You will never regret it.

    I use mine every day. Besides being an exotic of the highest order it is an utterly competent car. I cannot give higher praise.
    It is simply the best car I own, and I own many from ho hum Benzes to gullwings, from genuine supercars to a lowly 308. The Superamerica is the car Ferrari got exactly right.
