Certainly unusual.

I'm probably going to be a minority but it looks stunning, especially compared to the rosso cars that IMHO look too bulky.

That's nice, and it's got the good wheels too! The star wheels are crap looking in my opinion.

Carries the white well but black roof looks wrong, moreso at the front than rear

I think that looks fantastic, though i'd prefer non-chromed wheels.

They're the perfect wheels, but i'd have them in black with polished silver rim to continue the look... lick

Bit like this:



(obviously these are BBS CH wheels, not CK's but they're the onyl ones i could find in black with a polished rim...)

Does look good in the metal, seen one in this scheme a couple of times, pearlecent creamy white colour
got a video on my youtube channel, Munch997 will be one of the older videos so a high page number if you want to see the paint colour

Is it just me or does DK Enginnering's pricing seem a lot more competetive recently? Their cars always seemed to be up for more than the market rate, but most of them now seem like they are at the lower end of the price range for compareable cars. The Blue 550 Maranello is stunning, and at that price is giving me sleepless nights. I can just about afford to buy it, but can I afford to run it? Its those boarderline car buying dilemas that tax me at night! Of course I will do the sensible thing and not buy it - school fees, holidays and home upgrades are always higher priorities. I still think its an unusually good price to be advertised for.

I'm positive this is the car which Tbops said was his brothers.

Saw it here & on Ferrari chat.

I may well be wrong but it is fairly distinctive..

Anyone else remember it?

It is indeed a beautiful car.
But I'm a peasant, and what spoils it for me is the badge.
Ferraris should be red, else what's the point?
Is that what the 'uberrich' do then, order a Ferrari in anything other than red, just because they can?
I mean, they must have so much money they don't even care about taking a hit on depreciation!
I hope Ferrari charge them accordingly, and it goes towards the company's future, so that we may all
continue to aspire to a RED motoring icon and indeed get to own one without needing more money than sense.
smile


as you were

Well done Tony!

I see that it mentions 2 similar 599's on page 2 so perhaps my memory is still with us.. redface)

I'm on the iPhone with no wifi at the mo so can't really search, perhaps it was icemanbops who posted it?

Hope you still loving the CS!

sorry but how can anyone say that £161k for a two year old 6,000 mile 599 is a competitive price?
