    Finally picked up the new Spider and the GTB is gone. I cannot thank all of those on the forum who helped with the color choice as I was very torn between a few special paints. All I can say is that Bianco Fuji in the Sunlight is the most amazing paint color I've ever seen. Its actually impossible to look at without sunglasses its so bright yet it brings out all the lines of car amazingly well. I'll have some pro photos done soon but here is a taste from my iPhone which unfortunately get rendered at a lower resolution here.

    Congrats on the car and color! I couldn't get myself to pay the Fuji price for white! But man it looks amazing!!! Are you thinking of keeping? Also what color was the GTB?

    Amazingly beautiful
    Congrats
    I'm a big BF fan
    Any plans to wrap or coat it? I've been wondering if the brilliance of the paint would be dulled by it.

    Can you post a good picture of the wheel and calliper together. Im assuming that the calliper is std silver and not matched to the rim ? How close is it ?

    Thank you ! That just looks awesome, IMHO it looks the best. Actually I believe that Ferrari for once made the standard wheel much better that the upgrade

    So correct me if im wrong the Calliper is standard aluminium and the Wheel is it just Standard or the next option, chrome painted standard ?

    Thanks much. I'm really happy as well. The caliper is the aluminum or silver color. It's the same cost option as the reds and yellow. I think the no cost color
    Is black. The wheel is the standard wheel in "dark painted chrome".

    The only thing that I would add on the rims is that there is more to the rims than justbtbe difference in look.

    The option rim is a forged rim and the standard rim is a cast rim. What you are paying for on the option rim is not just the look, it is you are upgrading from a cast rim to a forged rim, and there is quite a bit of difference in strength and weight.

    Regards

    Michael

    The prior user was stating the standard rim "looks" better... which I see many other 488 vehicles have the standard rim style well beyond the 458 standard rim, which looked horrible.
