599 w/F-1, CCM, 20" wheels, various leather/cf options, etc
Prelim views post 500mis and 2 wks (used as a daily commuter and wkend car, alongside '07 CL600)....easily one of best overall sports/GT cars ever....many kudos to F's engineers; they have exceeded the rather lofty expectations of many cynical/jaded repeat F/P/MB buyers
Absolutely superb steering/brakes/chassis balance&damping (even vs suboptimal CA roads)/traction (even in rain...much better than 65)/600-like mid-range tq/shift quickness&smoothness/brilliantly linear throttle response/intimidating exhaust note
And about as daily-useable as my '07 CL600....excellent ground clearance for SF hills; big fuel tank/trunk; Bluetooth; iPod; superb build quality, etc etc.....if F had MB-like safety, the CL63 would be entirely irrelevant....
To be candid, found my prior 997TT Tip/PCCB's steering/brakes/traction to be rather comparable to 599's
...and 997TT's passive safety to likely be superior to 599's
....but view 997TT's wimpy exhaust note, lack of paddleshifters and turbo lag to be entirely unacceptable vs 599's strengths when analyzing sportscar attributes....and, when analyzing GT attributes, 997TT's lack of a commuter-relevant fuel tank, trunk space, Bluetooth and iPod/sat radio is shocking vs 599's rather CL-like amenities....
Will try to add more detailed obsvns after more miles....
