Ferrari 550/575 dash

The dashboards are different in the two cars. I wonder if Fujimi used the 550 dash for the 575, since they used the 575 door panels and seats in the 550.

The dash in the 550 kit represents the 550 quite well, so only the door panels are fro mthe 575.

When HLJ posted pics from the hobby show, you could see that the two kits have different dashboards. So I assume the 575 dash will be correct.

The Fujimi interior is a bit crude, the sharp edges on the tunnel and the weak seat/door panel engraving don't even compare w/some diecast models.

Besides the wheels, the entire tree D is exclusive to 550, while tree E is for 575M (i.e no tree E in the 550 kit, and no D in the 575M kit), so yes, they've got the dashboard right.

The kit of the 575M has indeed another dash. It's also true that the seats looks a bit flat but there are like that in real !
In fact Ferrari made 2 major production of the 575, one range with leather bucket seats and another with exactly the same seats and door panels as in the kit. I must admit that fujimi could have done an effort on that but at least we have the kit !

Personaly, I took the seats from the 550 Bburago for the fujimi 550 and I have taken replacement resin bucket seats for the 575 and it looks perfect !
