Ferrari Mailing List: Re: 456 issues

[Britt2Asa (britt2asa]

Beautiful car, loads and loads of issues which are design flaws and cannot be 
fixed. The windows is a major problem, there is no fix, they will break 
continuously. There is a big gap where the seal to the car, not at the top but 
the rear vertical edge. They continually fail and the only solution is a new 
part over and over. I have a picture taken at the Foc meet a few years ago with 
15 456's in a row and at least 10 had gaps big enough for me to slide my hand 
through.

Transmissions also very very problematic and very expensive to fix.

I like the looks and the shape but it has major flaws. Avoid.
