  • Aewsome New 200mph Ferrari 575M 2 Mar 2002 (News)
    Instead it indicates 'Modified' as huge changes have been made between the 550 and the new car. The most important is the gearchange. Wonderful machine that it was, the gated change of the old 550 was at best clunky and at worst far to slow for a beast of such awesome performance. It was all too easy to miss a gear and, changing from 5th to 6th at 150mph, that's the last thing you need.
