lol, when I saw the thread title, I was wondering what the heck is an F550? I thought maybe he put an extra '5' in there and it was supposed to be an F50!...damn!

Of course, the tubi exhaust sounds so insane on this car. Def a high point during my Thanksgiving weekend!

Very nice car,

Did your family friend change the wheels?

I believe those are stock 575m wheels

josephr25 · 12-02-2009, 10:47 PM

That was way cooler in its debut than the 599.

Mahhvinn · 12-02-2009, 10:50 PM

It's the same thing, no?

I've actually driven one of these before back in 2001 when I was in college and had my riced out honda accord. Needless to say I was absolutely blown away, talk about a fast revving, responsive engine.

No, but lots of people stick an F on the front of every Ferrari model number (F360, for example); it's a common mistake, especially since there seems to be no real rhyme or reason to it. (F355, 360 modena, F430, 458 Italia, etc.)

Exactly. I'm still surprised by how many people say "F430 Scuderia" when the badge clearly says "430 Scuderia"

fantastic pics. thanks for posting!

escobar929 · 12-03-2009, 12:03 PM

It's interesting that he has the 575 modular rims on it.

Scorpion · 12-03-2009, 02:45 PM

Pretty sick.

The 550 still doesn't really look outdated even 13 years later. Beautiful car.

dillon733 · 12-04-2009, 03:39 PM

the 550 is timeless one of my all time favorite Ferrari's especially back in its day.
