To be honest, I'm much more into fast GT cars, than I am flat out sports cars.  I like a few older Ferraris, (Daytona, and the 400/412i), but it was the 550 that really convinced me that Ferrari got its act together with build quality, and they wrapped it all up in what to my eye is a really great looking car, from all angles.  I'm still not sure what happened with the 599.  Maybe they designed it really fast in Aug. when most at Ferrari were off on holiday.

And honestly a 575?  the 575 and 550 are the weakest styling attempts by
Ferrari since the 456...  Truly not worthy, they should have stuck a
trident on those instead of allowing for the original 3200GT.
