OT: what kind of ferrari was in badboys 2?

"A Ferrari 575 Maranello, driven by Will Smith in Bad Boys II, will set you back more than $200,000."

It was a 550 Maranello. The 575 didn't come out untill about a year later. You can tell because the 550 hoodscoop is smaller and the 550 has fog light incorperated into the front grill, where as the fog lights in a 575 are in seperate holes. That article was wrong... or possibly the wrong information was given to the writer of that article by Ferrari to ensure the model advertised reflected the model actually available at the time of release... the 575.

Just looked more closely. It appears that BOTH a 550 and a 575 were used. I guess they didn't figure a car nerd like me would notice the subtle differences.

Left is a 550. Notice the Foglamps. Right is the 575.

Two different scenes. Left again is the 550 with fog lamps, right is a 575.

The badge is an option on ANY current model Ferrari, but you do have to pay for it.
