Your post hit the nail on the head.
I guess that's what being in this line of work will do to you... Hate having to tell your cust it's not worth what they think...

i understand that the 16M is more exclusive and a great car. but truthfully, when i look at both cars side by side, the 599 is still more appealing and sexier in my opinion. i don't think i will be any less happy driving either car, but something about the lines of the 599 truly make it a piece of art. so i guess my dilemma is do i spend the extra dough for a car that is more exclusive, but wont necessarily make my grin any bigger when i drive or look at it. i know, tough choice, but someone has to make them.
Here's the other thing. The top up driving environment in the 430 spider body is not great. It's cramped and noisy and feels 'cheap' imho. Fun with the top down, but the older I get, I'm far less likely to put the top down.
Your 599 can be driven anytime in any weather in luxury and quiet refinement whereas the 16M is far more limited.

i see the 599 as something you can go to dinner in... im not sure about the 16M anyway. verts arent for me.

BTW just so we get you on the right path in the future. If Megan Fox comes up to tells you she want's to F you all night say..."SURE". Regarding the 16M over the 599 I think it's obvious.

What happens when Ferrari wins their 17th F1 Championship? 16M what? I'm telling you, the 599 is classy, timeless, etc. The 16M is WAAAAAY too flash for my tastes. I'm sure it sounds/drives/handles great, but what about the 458 Italia? There is always something better. The 599 is going to be one of the better modern Ferraris (just like the Scuderia).

Exactly, it's like 7 Minute Abs workout video. I invented that and was rolling in dough until the unthinkable happened.... 6 minute abs!!! I'm still bitter.
