Ferrari 599GTB Fiorano on ebay - going for...

$400000 and climbling at this time!

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...MakeTrack=true

Its a great car and all, but $400k for a ~$230k car is outrageous.

Supposedly, the sticker on this car is closer to $330k, rather than $230k...
...and you can never under-estimate the market for those want to be the "first" to have one.

I'm finally starting to see these on the road, and have seen roughly 4-5. That dark burgandy color is still my favorite, this car is HOT in person!

I love the red, but I think I'd take mine in blue.

It's nice to be a little stealthy sometimes...

I'm not a fan of the overall styling, but l love all the little details, like the cowls in the rear, the clean engine bay, the steering wheel. They're all amazing.

Wish I had custom luggage for my TSX, heh.

I love the exterior but the interior looks cheaper than a Pontiac Vibe

Doubt youd be saying that if you actually sat in one.

When did Pontiac start using hand-stitched leather, billet aluminum, and hand-laid carbon fiber in their interiors?

Tiff prefers the 430.

The 599 is more of a big cruiser.

I bet the interior of the 599 costs more than a Vibe itself.

It's definitely more of a tourer than the 430. I have always loved the front/mid engined V12 Ferraris. The 575 was fantastic and the 599 is just that much better. As cool as the 430 is, you really can't use it for much other than a quick day trip somewhere. The 599 is quite capable of taking a decent road trip since it can store a decent set of luggage. I know if I spent that kind of money on a car, I'd want to be able to go away with it for the weekend.

I've seen 3 maybe 4 Ferraris here in Charlotte. I've been here ~6 years now. Granted I am on the wrong side of town to see 'em, but still....

Shit ton of Porsches (a couple of the new Turbos), a few new M5s and ~2 Aston Martins. That's it!!

AND

Correct me if I'm wrong. Did I see 3 pedals in that car? and Doesn't it have their F1 paddle transmission?? I thought that was an automated clutch??

I'm guessing matching luggage...

When you have a Ferrari, your luggage leather HAS to match the interior...
