    Finally managed to get some time to take a few decent pics of my new Spider. I knew I wanted this car to be grey - but struggled to decide on which one.

    I agonised for what seemed like ages before doing my Atelier visit and then finally deciding on Grigio Ferro - and I am so pleased that I did and stuck with my gut feel that it would look great on this model.

    This new Grigio Ferro has a sparkle and a warmth to it and it seems to change with different shades of light and really seems to highlight the curves on the 488.

    I matched the Grigio Ferro with a Tortora interior with contrasting Charcoal stitching and Daytona seat stripes and I think it has worked out really well.

    The car has also had full paint protection film applied by Topaz in London who did a fantastic job.

    I found searching thru all the photo's on here really helpful when I was trying to decide on my spec so hope these pics may be helpful to someone else in future speccing their next purchase!!

    Looks fantastic. Beautiful spec.
    Same color I ordered but I went with beige tradizione interior and Goldrake racing seats.
    Should be here next month. Can't wait now after seeing yours.
    Congrats and enjoy.

    Never been a fan of colored Daytona inserts but this looks very tastefully done and I love that light cream interior. Enjoy.

    What a great spec - looks fantastic. Many congrats!

    My 488 is due in the next couple of weeks - a different colour but hope it looks as good as yours.

    At the rate 488 Spiders are appearing around London we need to get them together some time and compare....

    Mine is Grigio Silverstone.

    Mine is a GTB rather than a Spider, but would be great to have a 488 get together in London over the summer.

    Very nice indeed. What did you do on the interior?

    I would def be up for a London meet sometime this summer.

    Black and light grey stitching. No carbon except the steering wheel as I am not a fan having looked at it for 15 years in my last car! Apple Play which is turning out to be actually quite useful. Full electric seats, lift, all sensors, rear camera are the things I can recall quickly. In my opinion all the options you need and none you could do without. Having had a similar setup on my GTB, it works for me. Oh and the smokers pack for probably the most expensive power connector you can buy!

    Also had full PPF installed by the same people as did my GTB - very professional job and very reasonably priced.

    Would be interested in where you had the PPF done, and what the cost was.

    At last. I was looking for a Grigio ferro Spider as I am looking to spec mine for February! Thanks. Not overly keen on carbon but see that you have included it in a few places, not sure if you did the skirt? What did you spec? Never thought of Tortola either. Looks great.
