    Have seen it in real life (this car) last year in august iirc. The color is actually a stunner if you don't mix it with light interior.



    How are you Tarek? :)

    That is a nice car, but not the colour I would choose personally. :):)

    But, kudos to the owner for being different. :D:D

    I would personally take one, although its not my favorite. My main 2 choices would be Black or Silver though. I would save Giallo Modena for an F430 :)

    Awesome spot, Tarek...! Did you get the serial number...? There aren't too many spotters in the Middle East. :)

    Tarek- I love that color on the 599. Just like my Fly Yellow 1970 Daytona from 30 years ago. Had two yellow Z06 Corvettes, too.

    Falken- I remember an ad in Autoweek for a yellow 275 GTB/4 with air conditioning (who knows?) for $7000 in about 1975. But I wanted a Dino 246 GT. Got the Dino, but fouled up royally, as it turns out, on my selection. Unbelievably, in those days, I did not find the 275 GTBs attractive. Same year, Kirk F White had a 250 LM for sale for $9800. So I paid $10,600 for a Dino 246 GT. Hindsight is sometimes not a good thing. Should have called Ed Niles for advice.

    Yellow is my favorite color........and it works on the 599 very nicely IMHO.

    Pap- Right you are. I will have to see if I can dig up any of the tax-free export prices from back then. Unbelievably low. No waiting lists then, either.

    Didn't get the serial number Carbon............I promise I'll get it for you next time I'm in Doha. The car was almost parked on a daily basis outside the hotel, so I will definitely see it again.
