What gets me is that everything that led to him selling it was well-intentioned. He moved his family closer to his work so he could have more time at home with them. Then he realized that the move wasn’t going to make his family happy, so they moved back. He deserves that car, and I’m with you, I hope his wife let him buy it.

Think about it he’s on here if he rings up any company’s says can I review this car they’re going to do it. Now he buys the cars he loves, the ones that he’s always wanted not just all the cars in the world.

I think each of us watching this video from start to finish enjoyed it - and also was pained by it remembering all of the previous cars we’ve bought and later regretted we’ve sold. I think what pains us most is that by the time we realize what we have done, someone doesn’t take care of the car like we would have or enjoys it and the car appreciates to a value much higher than we sold it for. This 550 is a beautiful car and hearing Harry and Hammond reminisce about their love for this car just made all other 550’s around the world a little more expensive. Great video. Thank you !!!

It was and still is the most beautiful car I have ever set eyes on. The guy who owned it was a nice old bloke, and I think he loved seeing a kid so excited about a car and was happy to let me sit in the driver's seat. One of the happiest moments of my young life. One day I will own one of these. One day.

Literally within the last couple of days was thinking "why aren't 550s more popular still?' Id honestly much rather have one of these over the modern front engine V12 Ferraris. Same with the 355, I'd rock either of these all day every day with a huge smile. The 550 was the understated beauty of Ferrari, the Ferrari that almost didn't look like a Ferrari but was still beautiful and had all the presence needed. Love it.

Still remember all the nights I've spent with my buddies just talking about our old beasts. I really hope Hammond ended up getting that one back, and made that call. OH OH OH!! Please make this a series, that would be great between the three of you. One guy, one car per show, maybe once a quarter? :))

What a joy to listen to that pair reminiscing. What I particularly appreciate is that it happens to be a 550 Maranello or it could be a Capri 2.8i, or an Alfasud, or a Skoda 136 Rapid, or a Mini 1275GT. At the end of the day it's just cars and why we love them.

I remember when this was new, people felt that, the design of the 550 wouldn’t age well compared to say an Aston Vanquish. Now when we look at it, after so many years, it’s still very very likeable.

I've only ever seen one 550 Maranello on the road, and that was in Belgium in 1999. I also caught a very quick glimpse of a Bugatti EB110. Belgium, the place to go if you want to see supercars on the road.

Because through the period when they were offering the 360, 430, 575, 599 and 612 with manual gearbox options, most buyers were total idiots who specced flappy paddle boxes instead. People shunning one of the greatest features of a Ferrari, for a gearbox which is jerky and will probably break, to go 0.3 seconds a lap faster on a track that it'll never be driven on, because it'll spend most of its time under a dust sheet in a garage. Meanwhile a manual 599 is probably worth the thick end of a million now.

I passed on buying one of these at $59k once. Bought a 355 instead. It was probably not the wisest decision financially but I had to buy the car I loved. The 550 with its front engine is just too American muscle car for me. It reminded me of a Corvette. For me you just can’t beat a mid engine car.
