    Is the floor anodized black or is that just a reflection? If so, that's a pretty cool improvement.

    Ferrari must have a bin full of those gray steering wheels they are trying to get rid of. I guess the fuzzy red dash goes with the rest of it.

    Ferrari should realize that installing a wrong color steering wheel would actually depreciate the car before it arrives to his first owner. Moreover, the car will be sitting for a long time in a dealer showroom. Not a good strategy is what I think.

    this looks like something that should be in the red light district in Amsterdam!!! Or any other red light district.

    I have a red dash and red rear deck in my porsche, and though mine is not alacantra I bet this car will have the same problem of the red reflection in the windshield when you are driving against certain light angles. I've since gotten used to it, but have had a few of my friends comment how it distracts them when they are in my car. I still love the red dash, would look even better if the car color was titanium.

    No matter what we all think - and I agree its a little much - someone thought enough of the car and bought the thing....

    Totally not my taste, BUT I guess if you are really rich and just have all sorts of cars, you can afford to experiment with some of them at no loss.

    I saw the car in person and I didn't notice the gray steering wheel. I don't know how I didn't! The rest didn't look very bad. I kind of liked it.

    actually, the car can be bought - the buyer backed out.

    I didn't notice it either.

    If you see it in person it looks better than in pics.

    Here is a couple more pics of the same car.

    steering wheel should have been done in black alcantara to go with the interior. If you spend all of the $$$ to do the whole interior in alcantara, why not the wheel? It also feels better than the leather.
