    In Black in particular it looks (from the front) angry and mean,like it's trying to scream at the car in front of it :get the f**k out of my way as***e!
    Absolutely love it in Nero,had planned to order a Bianco Avus as usual but I think Black shows this car better, since it hides all these aerodynamic gaps much more succesfully.

    I agree, I think this car looks best in black. The one design flaw (IMO) on the car is the little triangle vents at the leading edge of the front lid next to the headlights; they disappear on a black car. and yes, it looks very aggressive in that color! :)

    any pics of Nero Daytona (metallic black)?

    Different cars look better or worse in various colors, but it is nonetheless an indictment of a design to state that black helps certain of its features to "disappear." I agree with the quoted poster, by the way. Fred

    That's one of the interesting things about the design.

    The black on tan 458 has a different color interior trim than what was shown on the press cars. The latest pictures show dark gray metal trim for the steering wheel and the long horizontal metal trim piece on the dash. On the press cars the trim was a lighter silver color. Is the color an available choice or a production change for what will be standard now?

    Ah, interesting. I just assumed that was different lighting in different shots. Good news if it is a darker metal as that caught my eye too.

    Has anyone got a picture of a 458 in Grigio Titanio?

    I have seen a photoshopped version in Titanio and i reckon the real thing will look great.

    this car has grown on me so much.....it's beautiful!!

    still not 100% sold on the air ducts near the headlights...

    but this car has some amazing shapes, very aggressive while still remaining organic and sleek

    getting rid of the horse on the front does wonders as well.
