Beautiful Ferrari 575 Superamerica at Silverstone today

[autofocus]

Hi there,

Took a couple of pics of a Ferrari 575 Superamerica that was at Silverstone today. I was just leaving when it showed up. Luckily I had not put my camera away.




Its almost as nice as the one I saw at Graypaul earlier in the week.



Regards

Tim

Far East ?

They are Italian plates. The AA123AA style on a white background is definitely the Italian way.

Nice car ...

As an aside why exactly do the FOC insist on putting ropes around the cars? I mean I've been to American Ferrari do's where there are far rarer examples of the Prancing Horse on show as well as Concorso Italiano, Pebble Beach etc and theres no ropes around any of the cars. Is it simply a British thing?

Italian plates beginning EE... are Italian export plates. You will see these on quite a lot of Ferraris. It does not mean the cars are based in Italy or Italian owned.
