Cars are made to drive - and drive hard - ain't no reason to let 'em sit.

Just bugs me when I try to share that passion and someone flames for no reason.

Cheers

I agree 100%, and good for you......
But curious -
the 599/612 is obviously very different from the 360/430 series, so I can understand the potential need for one of each, however having a Scuderia Coupe and Scuderia 16M Spyder seems a bit repetitive (to me) - no disrespect just wondering the reasoning for such a similar purchase ?
What colors are they ?

Thanks

Thanks. My number one car is the Scuderia. Hands down. Period. Road and Track supreme. The 16m is a bada$$ 'vert and I always like an open top car. It is also a limited edition and a bit special in that regard, But it is open top so I don't track it. The 599 is a front engined 12 cylinder monster (remember it has the Enzo engine). The suspension is the electromagnetic one (yeah, the same as the Corvette's) and it is a MONSTER - it is great to drive around town and into and out of New York City without getting too much attention - a true GT - really more subtle than the Scuderia in shape and approach - but when you drop the hammer - watch out! All are BLACK (as are all of my cars) - the Scuderia and 16m with dark silver stripes (custom from Ferrari not the stock silver)

Each a different car really - I am fortunate to have the ability to own and drive them. The SLS will be very interesting. Indeed, I am considering shipping my Scuderia to Laguna to back-to-back with the SLS in November - won't ever sell the Scuderia as I picked it up at the factory in Italy, so.....

Now, I am getting the jonze for a vintage 300SL Gullwing, so........

I only buy black as well...
Yes the 599 is a hell of a car, & congrats on the Italy trip/delivery - I'm sure that was amazing

You are correct, SLS should definitely be interesting. I'm not so much into older cars - even a pristine beauty like the Gullwing.
Take care

I think the new Ferrari 599xx would be a better comparision. It's suppose to weigh less and 700hp, not sure about the torque. Considering that the regular 599 can trap 129, the 599xx should be a beast.

Whoops! Sometimes, people forget how small the internet world really is. Let's see how this plays out.

I feel like I'm trolling - cause I hardly participate anymore - BUT...
looks like the internet world just got a little smaller!

Can u guys guess who not only is one of Jeff Roberts customers 10+ cars deep but one of his best friends also? Why yes that would be me!
Wait it gets better - CAn u also guess who lives in Greenwich?
RIGHT AGAIN! Deeroff supposed stomping ground.

So I'll fire up the Black and we can meet on Greenwich Ave for a Starbucks ok Deeroff? bring the Ferrari please.

BTW you might be the real deal but 3 yrs ago you were called out for the same thing and ridiculously embarrassed and banned on that Ferrari board. Coincidence?
Lets see.

And I just moved from Westchester so Im familiar w anyplace there too so we can meet somewhere in Westchester or Greenwich. Oh and BTW guys trust me there is no racing around Greenwich the cops are SWARMING here - within 3 weeks I had 2 motorcycle cops in my driveway who followed me home just from seeing my cars all the time and wanted to see who I was.

Deeroff is full of and what a braggartthat's always the first clue "look at me look at me"

Also even if true, giving a 612bhp Ferrari to your "daughter's friend" is sure to please her dad....what a lying tool

Gotta love how these dingbats don't think to change their screen name. Clive from F-chat is worthy of our CSI....

599 hands down but the SL65 BS is a very very close second.
