I was offered a "significant" discount on a factory order but didn't pursue just exactly how large this was as I'm not looking for a 599. I just cancelled my California slot and got my deposit refunded as I've decided to keep my F430 spider instead and run it alongside my Scuderia until the F142 is launched next year. From what I can gather on some UK forums a large number of California orders have been pulled so it'll be interesting to see how this model performs. Late model, low miles used 599's are now around similar money to a reasonably optioned California. Whilst it may not have a folding hardtop it has 4 extra cylinders giving it much better performance than it's smaller sibling. There is a general worry here that the California is substantially over priced and will suffer steep depreciation especially in the current economic climate. Having said that all current models are seeing significant depreciation here just now
LOL 400miles...
Some people just amaze me in their stupidity and reasoning in buying... NO, financing these cars!
WOW way to loose a cool chunk of cash... It would be better if went to Casino and tried his luck there!

Mike S:
I'm just curious, how is the 599 market in everybodies own countries respectively. Has the hype slown down, or is there still an endless waiting list to acquire one?

Well, I think you can't really compare a Zonda to the "average" Ferrari. To an Enzo maybe, but not to an 599 for instance.ed_moree:
