The 599GTB Fiorano is a fantastic car. You can drive it every single day. It's comfortable and easy to drive, even in heavy traffic. Originally Posted by PV996TT

Peter,
The car has been utterly flawless. Ferrari quality keeps getting better and better. The 599 is a crowning achievement.
If you were going to find any negatives it might be, for some, that the gas mileage is horrible. It's probably about 8 MPG tops, if not lower.
I sometimes wish that Ferrari offered a 2+2 version like the 612 so I could fit my kids (at least two of them) in the back.

Not an owner but my uncle has one, my one question:
Why on earth would you get it in red?!?!?
Just my opinion but it's the worst, most tasteless colour for a Ferrari.
But hey, the majority of Ferrari owners would disagree with me.

You're right on the money. The nicest car I've seen in awhile is the matte black 599 in Germany that was posted.Originally Posted by English Chap

Red is the most "tasteless colour for a Ferrari" and yellow is "horrific" too: according to "English Chap". Originally Posted by English Chap

If you finally do own one some day, you can choose any color you like. In the mean time, you can ride around with your uncle.

Ferrari of Silicon Valley in Redwood City, CA has a Pozzi with cuoio interior.
Boy does that look good. It belongs to the dealership's owner.
Dark colors look best on it.
I saw a Grigio Silverstone that SVAS had at the San Jose car show 2 weeks ago. It looked nice but I think it's better with darker colors.
