The 575 got slated on its release, too soft was the main theme. Looking at Top Gear magazine they don’t make any complaints (have not read it in full though)

But this car does have the Handling pack, I have driven two cars (550’s), one with the pack and one without. What I noticed was the one with the pack was stiff but nicely damped. It handled very very well differently to the one without. There was no real difference until you started pressing hard.

The 550 is too good a car though.. most cars don’t leave the factory with the same geometry setup so have Ferrari quietly modded the 575 or was the early test car not well setup ?
