It seems to have been for sale for quite a while but looks like a good spec to me...

Is it that your average 575 owner doesn't want sports seats and a manual?

Only thing I can think of is that red is not actually the preferred colour for the big V12's for some strange w@nky reason. Looks nice!

I, too, have noticed that this car has been for sale for a rather long time. Could it be that 575 buyers prefer a flappy paddle box? I think the car is stunning and am seriously tempted...

It looks lovely and has a proper box in it too.

I think it is gorgeous!

Perfect colour combo, in my opinion! And the manual box makes the whole car perfect.

Could do with the bigger optional wheels, but that can be fixed! wink

From what I can see it does have the bigger (19") optional wheels

They look standard to me! (but I prefer the standard wheels to the bigger wheels anyway smile )

I would say the price is a bit high - drop it by £5k and it might sell.

That said I wouldn't touch a red 550 or 575 - just too shouty for a GT IMO.

Manual box I would take over the F1 any day.

Given the fact the car is being sold privately and the advert above has a better spec car for £7k less I'd say it was way off the money.

Another rosso 575 here. Later car with lower miles and a warranty for the same money...
