UPDATE: Car looks pretty good, checked VIN against recalls - everything performed.

Car will be at WWoC for a PPI on Thursday. I will make the decision based ont he report, but my guess is everything will be a-ok.

Also, the 550 is now out of commission. It is mechanically sound, but the repairs will take a few months and cost $50k +/-.

No. I haven't taken pictures yet. Not really in the mood to. It's also not that much damage. Parts for two new front fenders, hood and bumper is 25k. Front subframe is some cash. Then painting everything...

Well, again, considering I had to pay around 2000 USD to fix a fucking Ibiza I hit time ago with my car (there was just a panel to fix/change), 25 for a 550 seems almost "correct".. but still :shock: sad

From looking at the pics I didnt think it would cost so much.

If they are going to take so long to fix it hope they give you a rental car instead.

LOL Not exactly. I was hoping you can finagle a 360/550 loaner from your Ferrari dealership

The dealership has no interest in giving me a loaner. Why would they? My car got crashed, insurance would give me a loaner. They aren't going to shell out for a ferrari loaner car...
