I got both cars, 16M is way fun than the 599

 

I think you should trade in your 599 for the 16M. You can't beat the exhaust sound of the 16M

 

Maybe I am getting old, dang how many times am I posting this today, but Ferrari's V12 GTs have always been on the top of my list of most desirable cars. I am sure the M16 is more exclusive and maybe for the right person more fun to drive, not for me, I cannot imagine enjoying anything more than driving a Ferrari V12. I am sure you can built whatever P-car to match the driving experience of the M16 (maybe sacriledge to the Ferarrista). Sorry but a 599 is such a classic GT car and you will take a big hit for just 2,700 miles.

 

Exactly my sentiments, just expressed differently. The 599 is a seminal car and will be regarded highly like the 250/275 GTs and the Daytona.

 

I would go with the 16M. But be prepared to take a beating on your wallet!

 

The trade in value of a 599 will be a huge hit to take. In the long run, 16M's will hold value much better than a 599.

Slightly more than a 100 16M's made it to the USA...they "should" hold their value better than most comparable Ferraris over the next few years.

Now, drive a 16M and that whole argument becomes a moot point...its one of those cars you buy and keep (and forget about what its worth)

 

Probably, yes

 

Keep the 599.

I'm thinking of doing the opposite...trading in my scud for the 599.

 

Why?

 

As much as i love the 16M and i really do love it i would keep the 599. In regard to trading the GT2 for the 16M i think is a much wiser decision
