599 HGTE: Wowser!

We stopped by Lake Forest Sports Cars today just to see what they had. Stumbled past this 599 HGTE and it took my breath away!

Owner Rick Mancuso was gracious in allowing me to drive it! Staggered my imagination. This thing is like the perfect car! It's stunningly beautiful, fast, and comfortable yet edgy at once.

Every time you think Ferrari can't improve upon what you already consider "perfection" they do what you thought was not humanly possible -- they improve it!

What a car guys! (Sorry about the crappy cell phone pictures)

This is the brand new 2010 HGTE Package car. List was about $365K. It's a different animal than a "normal" 599.

Here's a 5th Gear video on the HGTE version of the 599:

You're right about normal 599s falling like a rock. You can buy a 2007 in 220s now.

Wow! I didn't even know there was one in the states yet. That's a good color combo as well!
