Thanks. Hope to have the Daytona back next week. Then if the clouds ever part and the rain stops, we can begin the comparsions.
Thanks. Hope to have the Daytona back next week. Then if the clouds ever part and the rain stops, we can begin the comparsions.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.
Thank you but I love my 575. Just getting her back after some winter TLC.CGT, your 575 is a beauty too. I absolutely love the colour combo. The offer is still open to swap it with my 308 :crowngrin:
I'm sure we'll catch up at a SR meet or on one of Boxer's Sunday morning drives next year :thumbsup:Thank you but I love my 575. Just getting her back after some winter TLC.
And your lovely 308 is what started me on a road that may reach it's conclusion in the next few days :thumbsup: Hope to see you soon, if all goes to plan we should have a 308 meet :thumbsup::thumbsup:
Your 575 must be the track version with the short shift and mine the pure GT:thumbsup:An interesting thing to note, when I drove Boxer's car (built just a few months after mine, otherwise almost identical spec) I noticed the gearlever felt longer. I thought I may have been wrong but looking at these photos it does appear to be the case.. anyone cast any light on this? Should we all compare the length of our shifters?? :yikes:
I think that on the day they built my car Luigi had a big lunch and couldnt muster the strength to carry the longer piece of metal so opted for the short one :thumbsup:Your 575 must be the track version with the short shift and mine the pure GT:thumbsup:
Probably a Friday, they needed to finish three cars but only had a long enough piece for two regular sticks so they decided on making a special run of three short shift sport 575s.I think that on the day they built my car Luigi had a big lunch and couldnt muster the strength to carry the longer piece of metal so opted for the short one :thumbsup:
