I just purchased a 97 550 in California. I have been told the 99, 00, 01, & 02 550s were detuned a little to met the smpg requirements. Is this true?

I doubt it, but I'm not too familar with modern Ferrari specs, as I'm in the stone ages with my carbureted car (contributing mighty generously to the greenhouse gases... )

Bart, That is interesting, Where did you get the info. you heard? I don't know of any engine changes or detuning.

Here in Europe I don't think they changed anything, but that might have been the case in the US, so I don't know.
