Right on Gary! You wrote <<I like the

Exactly! The 275 is one of the more beautiful designs â IMHO, the 550
looks like the natural progression of the design of the 365 Daytona...

Subject: Re: [Ferrari] 512TR vs 550 I bought a 550 in 2008, the same year that I sold
my 512BBi.
Some issues are the plenum water hoses, weak motor
mounts (replace w/575s) and shock actuators (same
as 355s). All of these are easily fixed and most of ones on the market have
already been
corrected.
The positives for me: 485HP, 199MPH, 0-60 in 4.2
sec, good brakes and a major service is a lot less $ than pulling out a mid engine. My 550 has been very reliable over
the last two years/11K miles that I've driven it.
I like the styling, it reminds me of a modern 275 GTB.
Like cLyDe says, "the maintance is easy and IT
HAULS ASS."
