I'll be seeing it real life very soon, looking forward! So far from pictures, I'm also not a fan of the front. Will see how it goes after I see the real car!
I know of one sold already. Think only one available this year, heard IA also trying to get another unit.
Any more pixs of the exterior? Me in the desert now, back 17th , after car has left sgp. Asked the F car dealer at Wynn's here if they had a 458 in the showroom and they said ," Sir, that is the newest and latest Ferrari, and No, we dont have one in the showroom and do not know when we will have one".
So Leang, is there any F chat discount since so many here are keen to do? Will call EM once I'm back.
You like what you see in flesh? I think the side profile brings back the word "sexy" to the V8 line once again, something that was slowly lost since the 308/328.
I've used one before, they're pretty useful and saved me the trouble of getting my car towed just cause it had a flat tyre.
The car is very good looking. The key for me is the engine and the transmission. Like Michael I wasn't too excited about the car when I saw it maybe coz we have seen many pictures of it before.
Yup, I cannot wait to hear one at 9k rpm! And it will be interesting just how much more can the 458 do as compared to your Scud for that kind of $$$. Await your report in a few months time.
Do any of you guys mess with the camber and toe values of your cars, especially before you take them to a track?
The Scuderia is already set at -2.5 front and -3.0 rears... so its more or less set up for track. Anything more dramatic will create severe tire wear. Don't forget we drive 350km to the track.
Bro, they ain't giving free lunch. Anyone who buys that white Murcie (S$100K loss a year if u look @ the selling price) or any cars for that matter will still stand to lose money. And we're valuing the body @ current mkt, we'll have to minus a 2 digit % off the body per year as it ages.
Yup... i was even thinking of going -3 and -3.5... then realized that I may not have any tires by the time I reach the track
Used it several times for nail type puncture. The bloody liquid is quite a mess & please get em to dismount & wash when patching. However, my Murice suffered once on the rear & regular inflators don't work, only the factory issued can works which they said has higher PSI. I never had a chance to replace it & borrow from ES when I'm on long trips. It's S$1K+ from them a can!!! I buy those tyre repair kit in Malaysia for every car in case u need a self fix by the road.
Actually, if u guys are that particular, I'll be glad to bring u to the alignment shop in Subang jaya then drive abt 30mins to Sepang & back to set up.
