I love 575 and 550 Ferrari models, I've always been tempted by the 575 SA but now they're way outside my budget, as for the 550B not so sure, with the roof on it looks kinda like the Porsche Boxter Spider AKA a "tramps hat". I'd rather just have the SA but for much less money I know there are better cars such as an NSX-T

Just seen a nice 550 maranello with a DK Engineering plate on it being filmed near my sisters house. What was really interesting is what looked like a 250 gto tucked away behind it and the 458 in the yard.

I'll take my V12 drop-top in a more British fashion, thanks, and pocket the £275k for 488 biggrin

Then again, DBS Volantes are common as muck with a whopping 852 produced wink
You make a good point!

Wasn't sure re the looks of the 550 when it was launched...but seem to like it more now somehow? Anyone else think the same or just me!

Just googled the engine and it was described as 180 degree V.... So you might be right after all! Whatever a 180 degree V is!

Hopefully someone cleverer than me can explain...or we can just look at more pics of the 550...
