    Here is my new toy, pick it up next week, the colour I think is lovely, and is from the Ferrari days of past and was a special order, not seen many around so no idea how many are in that shade of grey.
    Will probably not get around to sorting out fitting the FHP and a tyre change from Bridgestone to the New Pirelli P Zeros this winter, that will be job 1 next spring, as I will be using it until end October then it is going into hibernation. UK weather in winter is not what you want your 575 to suffer.

    I am down in Cheltenham, though probably on a move to somewhere in Somerset in the next 6 months.

    That is a great color which makes your car special. It will take on a brownish cast in certain light to. How did you locate it? Was it someone that you knew who was selling? It's a great find!

    Paul- Very pretty and I really like that color and interior. I did not think they salted the roads in most of the UK, but it has been a while since I left (1991). It does get pretty messy, though with that sleet/freezing rain/wet snow and black ice mix. No since taking a chance.

    The newest P Zeros are not available for our 18" wheels, unfortunately, but are available for the optional 19" wheels. The P Zero Rossos work fine, but do wear a bit quickly. Very sticky, though.

    When you get your Assembly Number, we will add you to the database. Have two more to add today.

    I guess he got one of the water soluble ones! :D ;)

    The CDF/crema interior is a great combo. Contrasting inserts and/or piping and it's perfect.

    Bienvenu, Paul ;)

    The car is wonderful. The 575 is the one front engine I would think about (I actual prefer berlinettas).
    Congratulations.

    Both interiors are striking, the RHD perhaps more so due to the RHD. Struck me, anyway.

    I have now purchased this car, the previous owner has looked after this magnificently. Such elegance, raw power, and very lively with the sport button pushed in.
    Delightful colour, and subdued enough for the slab-like hood/bonnet not to look too massive. Big cars and bright colours do not mix.This one will be a keeper.
    Ferrari UK do not do tough up paint, but the company that they use does, and they sent me some,next day, gratis. A nice touch,'scuse the pun.

    Jim- Bright colors work quite well with 575Ms, especially in places where the sun shines regularly. Dark cars just absorb too much sunlight here.

    Very pretty car. Enjoy her. Maranellos are only large cars in Europe. Here they are quite normal size compared to our SUVs and ~the same size as a new Corvette or 911. Mine looks like a puppy next to my wife's GL 550.

    ...as a bad color when you are gated with a clutch.

    Gotta second this and I know its all personal taste, but CDF shows so very nicely on this body style

    Scott- Have to disagree with both of you. Purely a matter of taste. Not fond of dark cars at all myself. Probably comes from living in the US SW a good portion of my life.
