yeah much rather the maserati. I wonder if the 695 Tributo will ever come down in price.

 

[dem maser]

It will........

 

[GransportFan1]

it should do, if i remember correctly there is 157 coming to the uk, most will be red.

 

[dem maser]

Will only buy red if its ferrari special......

 

[GransportFan1]

You can have it in Red, Yellow, Blue Abu Dhabi or Grigio. Obviously i would buy yellow.

 

[GransportFan1]

Looks nice in Blue

I have to buy it red, with ferrari badges it will be the most wanted colour.....

I love it Adam..WHen I say one on Paris I kept going back for a look...But, its a rip off......Far to much money...

 

[GransportFan1]

It will be the most wanted yes but when Yellow is an option, i dont chose another colour over yellow very often.

It is a massive rip off but you cant deny that fact to yourself you want one, i know i cant.

 

[Andyk]

Will it be a wanted car....Not sure...If it was 19/20k new then I would say yes but they are very limited and I bet they aren't selling...

 

[GransportFan1]

No they are not selling, about 6 for sale on Pistonheads from 35-40k.

 

[Andyk]

The price is eye watering.....Think of the cars you could buy for 35/40k.....GS, QP, 911's, Aston V8 Vantage, Lotus Exige to name a few.......

 

[GransportFan1]

yeah it is crazy. This car is for Ferrari owners to drive around in and use the Ferrari at the weekends or it is for the hardcore mental Abarth fans that wear the matching basball cap and t shirt when driving it.

 

[Andyk]

Yep, it would look lovely parked next to the 599 in their garages....

 

[Andyk]

Adam, if you must spend lots of pennies on a 500 this has to be the one....This IS fun...

[GransportFan1]

That is awesome, would be tricky to handle though, short wheel base and rear drive, be like a Yorkshire Terrier in the corners.

 

[Parisien]

Crazy money.....absolutely..................not sure about the enjoyment factor....certainly exclusivity factor!!


P

 

[Andyk]

Adam watch out for the buying guide in EVO...Not sure if its the next issue or not...Its the 500 Abarth SS......

A few of my pics from saturday

This is just perfection

The noise this thing made was mental. Makes my attempt at a loud car look pretty amatuerish
