TB, welcome and congrats on the car!!
The 599 epitomizes everything that's great about a supercar: noise, power, handling and...driveability!

I do love a black Murci though....

Congrats again and welcome to FL!

TB, congratulations on the purchase of the 599 HGTE. My absolute favorite GT car. Drive in good health always. I put a post on the 599 owners thread that probably should have gone under this thread. Should you get a chance please post a response when the opportunity arises as I am considering trading in my 575 for the 599.

Welcome to Ferrari Life.

TB- Very pretty and an interesting shade of gray, similar to, but looks different from, Grigio Silverstone.

Make sure she is pointed in a straight line when you floor it until you get used to her.

Is that a non-metalic grey?

Welcome.
I think you will require two surgeons for grin removal.
One for you and the other for Nathan.
