Thought it would be a good idea to make a list of 550/575 owners on Ferrarilife Please post up a picture of your 550/575 and some info about it. It's up to you what info you want to provide but an example would be: Example: Model: 550 Year: 1998 Country: Belgium Steering: LHD Chassis number: 104952 Ferrari colour: Rosso Corsa Interior colour: Blanco In order to keep the thread on topic, please only post once in this thread with all the info you would like to provide on your 550/575. Thanks. Last edited by Boxer; 11-27-2008 at 09:38 PM. |

Congrats, Boxer! Back to Maranellos, I see. Fantastic looking example, I must say, and a rare manual to boot (but then I would not have expected you to get an F1). Enjoy! Onno |

Congrats on your new, exquisite acquisition, Boxer. Excellent choices. Now you can enjoy the opulence and "leisurely" drive (relative to others, of course). Without a doubt, an elegant stance. w/ smiles Jimmy

Phewww, that's one sharp looking machine... Absolutely stunning colour combination, both the grey exterior and the off-white interior. Congratulations are in order, Sir!

Wow Boxer, looking good. You should now be able to provide a serious report on the 550 vs 575FHP handling comparison (there should not be any doubts about the engine performance differences). I hope you enjoy it in good health. ... racing, it's life. Anything that happens before or after is just waiting... (Steve McQueen / Le Mans) |

Heres mine:- Model: 550 Maranello Year: 01 Jan 1998 Country: UK. Originally delivered to Graypaul, Loughborough ( before they moved to Nottingham). Spent its life in Cornwall until I rescued it back to the Midlands. Steering: RHD Chassis number: 110696 Ferrari colour: Rosso Corsa Interior colour: Creama w Red stitching, Burgundy carpets Mileage: 30,064 miles - 29 Nov 2009 Options: CarbonF seats Some pics after detailing in preparation for winter hibernation. FL member Dream-Clean does the 430 professionally. I do the 550 ( and my other non Fcars) as an enthusiastic, well tutored, amateur. Boxers Maranello - another great addition to an already superb stable. |

| Lovely pair! (no pun intended). As to the detailing: Looks to me like you're ready to move from the amateur status to pro ranks...

| Congratulations on tracking down a magnificent 575M manual, Boxer. I look forward to driving and ownership comparisons with your previous 550 as well as back to back driving impressions with your Daytona. Something very special about the front-engined V12 Ferrari's.
