Correct Tony, as is the Speciale.
Evo incorrectly said that the CS & Scud were not production cars in a youtube video.

Also CS & Scuderia were adapted from road going version whereas Speciale is first special edition since 348 Competizione to be built ground up as a track focussed car.

The educated have bought Speciale, the un educated are still speculating biggrin

How did this thread turn into another GRB thread ??

Ok - now we are getting in to serious beer chat territory...

Actually - whereas the CS and Scud were designed as single time zone cars the Speciale was the first car Ferrari produced to be dual time zone (with their hybrid flux capacitor). What that means is that you can enter a race with the thing and win before the race has actually begun...

Amazing stuff!!!!!!!

And lol - because of this Speciale dual time zone feature buyers have already seen what prices / values will do in the long term... That why there are so many LHD cars for sale in Europe already - people are selling up and going back to the Scud as in the future people realise it's a better car.

and because of this the Scud values will soar in to the millions...

Amazing stuff really... biggrin

FNE don't like it being referred to as a 458 Italia with some mods, it has very little 458 Italia DNA.
Car is epic, not bothered about value I am and will be having a blast smile

That is what they say about every one of their special cars though. GTO is not really a 599, CS not really a 360 and so on. As far as I am aware still the same chassis and same engine with some modifications (might be wrong on both though).

Exactly what Jethro says https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ry_Ywh8I9-4 I guess it's all down to marketing at the end of the day. If they said it was developed along with the Ariane space programme some people will lap it up!

Funny what some people are prepared to believe when fed the official factory line.

I think it's fair to say that the Speciale is totally based on the 458 - no question. It is very different to drive - like a 458 but turned upto 11 - spinal tap sytlie!

I'm so loving mine - have booked several track days in the next two months!

Prefer a good morecambe and wise sketch myself, but each to his own.

Interesting reply...?

It is news to me that ownership infers expertise (although this is a treasured from your lips...er fingers, but none-the-less misguided).

Shall we address this head on? Here is the list of Rosso Corsa ET Performantes:

LP570-4 Edizione Tecnica ? delivered.
Variant Registration Colour Transmission Other
Performante Y8 JPO Red Auto
Performante SN13 BZV Red Auto
Performante 11 JPN Red Auto
Performante SN13 BZS Red Crashed
Performante BV63 YZY Red Auto
Performante OO13 ADE Red Auto
Performante recieved Red Auto S11 GRB


Please take a moment to point out which cars on this list are problematic to your concept of 6/7 Rosso Mars ET Performantes.

I can't help but notice that the last car was on the plate, censored, which contains your intials. This would hint that it might have been yours? I know the car well as it is now owned by an acquaintance, someone on the same block as me. This makes me wonder whether or not you still own your ET Performante (which would, ergo, diminish your level of expertise).

Regarding your final, bizarre, sentence: please refer me to the place that I stated there were more Edizione Tecnicas than CS/Scuderia/Speciale?

Blimey someone is brave to leave their Lambo near Nelson Mandella Towers, Peckham.
I would suggest that list is either out of date or inacurate by at least 2 private plate transfers that I know of rolleyes

ETA

Reg No. removed at the request of the owner.

Correct, 11 JPN (seen today) and OO14 ADE have been transferred recently.

At this point in time plates do not worry me much as I have 6 out of 7 VINs.

Wouldn't it be great if you spent less time wking over the values of cars you no longer own and instead enjoyed the ones you do own and contributed constructively? wavey

Out of curiosity why do you collect VIN/REG numbers?

I would suspect illegal reasons hence why I do not want any of my info disclosed to individuals on this forum thanks very much.
Looks like I will have to transfer this reg number off this car now but a bit worrying that there are stalkers out there ?
