Very nice pictures, there. I loved watching them. You thought the F355 was sexier than the 360 "Even in grey"?! It is one of my favourite colours for the F355. Silver of course, not titanium or any other darker grey. On a silver F355 the rear lights stick out so beautifully!

The 612 Scaglietti is good in the flesh, isn't it? It took me by surprise the first time I saw it. I can only imagine it looks even less big in black.

The F40 does have three exhausts. Indeed, the one in this pic seems to have a modified exhaust, since in the stock one the middle pipe is not round.
As standard, the F40 has three exhausts. And, yes, the F40 photographed by TT has a modified exhaust, but not because the middle one is round. The middle one is supposed to be round with the stock exhaust. It's just that the left and right pipe are wide and flat with the stock one. I took a picture of an F40 a while ago and this is what an F40 exhaust is supposed to look like.

Yes I agree. The first Scaglietti I saw were that silverish/grey tone and it already suprised me, but in black it is for sure a nice car!

Local state-side Ferrari dealerships may be a little skittish about visitors after that twit blew his brains out in the 360 the other day...

So be prepared for the thrid degree.

I don't think they would mind you taking pics. When I went in the other day I just asked the salesman if he wouldn't mind me taking a few pics and he was all for it, saying that he enjoys seeing people with a passion for Ferrari's.

As I said a couple of times, I know one of their mechanics and he said it's not a problem. Beside that, it was the second time ah, and it's just a 3 or 4 km drive, so even if they would have said not... not a big deal but they are quite friendly I just hope to find similar people today at the Lambo one (and Pagani )
