    Re: 599 GTB

    The only thing that i am afraid is that on this fotos ,if you look at the rear window , there are something very wrong in that area..., so i wonder how it will look for real.
    I have read that the 599 has a 11 month waiting list already...

    It has been discused many times....
    It has "flying buttresses"....
    The C-pillars and the rear window are not attached....

    Re: 599 GTB

    For all those, who don't like the looks of the new 599 GTB, I have some "improvements"...

    Improvement No.1, 599 GTB without that many air vents (although I think they are necessary):

    Re: 599 GTB

    Improvement No.2, 599 GTB with traditional twin rear lights:

    Re: 599 GTB

    Improvement No.3, 599 GTB with new style vertical twin rear lights:

    Re: 599 GTB

    Improvement No.4, 599 GTB with M6 rims:

    Re: 599 GTB

    Improvement No.5, 599 GTB with F430 rims:

    Re: 599 GTB

    Improvement No.6 (last), 599 GTB with F430 rims and twin vertical rear lights:

    Re: 599 GTB

    Well, all it needed was to be lowered a little on the factory wheels.

    I for one LIKE the single tail lamps and scoops and vents.

    But nice Pchop work.

    Re: 599 GTB

    The single taillights is the way to go. The two side-by-side lights look too crowded. Same with vertically stacked ones.

    Also, the air vents give the car a more aggressive stance. Congratulations to Frank Stephenson (design chief for the F430 and 599 GTB). I think he nailed this one.

    Thanks for the pics, Rossi.

    How's about one with challenge wheels?

    Re: 599 GTB

    Rossi,
    I'm ordering mine in black any way to switch colors on the photo? And I'm thinking about the Hamann BBS stly rims with black centers.

    Very good points and yes, congratulations to Frank Stephenson. He really showed his visionary talent with F430, going with the very distinctive front end which may have looked odd in some pictures, but which looks fantastic when viewing it in the flesh.

    The 599 (if you look past the retouched photos), I think, is less fussy than even a M-B SL (not the SLR, which is just plain childish), is clean and sharply tailored and yet looks so purposeful. The last thing it needs are some tacky tuner wheels and skirts - leave those to the M-B's.

    About the challenge wheels, here you go (but only at the front):

    Woohoo! I'll take one in Silverstone. Thanks.

    Re: 599 GTB

    I think the car is OK! I am already get used to it and I like it a lot. I cant wait to see it in "flesh". It will look even better, like all the others (Enzo 612 430). BUT !!! I do NOT like the single rear lights. I believe that a FERRARI should +MUST have 2 PAIRS of round taillights as well as 2 PAIRS of round exhausts. Its classic for Ferrari now. Its the way a Ferrari's rear end should look like. So someone tell them to change them! Or give me their number to call them right now!!! Do you think there is a possibillity to change them now? I think its not a "defeat" for Ferrari to put back 4rear lights in 599. Rossi could you please put 2+2 rear lights which will be the same size and like the other models? Thanks

    Well, perhaps not exactly the colour, but at least close...

    Re: 599 GTB

    amazing photoshop work, per usual.

    Re: 599 GTB

    black with the f430 wheels looks beautiful!

    Re: 599 GTB

    I like the black version with the F430 wheels too....Cool!
    Looks like a car I would drive daily too
