    And apparently, the dealer had it at 100MPH with only 40 miles...

    The engines are run in by the factory, so that's not a problem.

    Anyone who has ever visited the factory will tell you that the cars generally reach 100mph within 200ft of the gates on their test drives

    and that's what makes things a bit confusing for many owners:) "i can't hustle my car..shouldn't exceed this rpm, that speed... until i 'break it in' "

    Is that color available? I don't see it in the configurator. I guess if you pay enough, anything is possible. Any idea what this beautiful pearl white costs? My Bentley's "Ghost White Pearlescent" MSRPs for $7K.

    White seems to be emerging as the new hot Ferrari color, IMO. Black has become very popular in recent years and represents about 25% of F430 sales, if I recall correctly, but white is pretty rare, yet growing in popularity. I wonder if it will retain value like red and black and gray. Any idea, anyone?

    Even if an owner honors the 'break in' period of 1000kms (or 600 miles) and doesn't exceed 5000 rpms (as suggested), its easy to get a 458 up to 100 mph. It's a rocket and in 7th gear pulls well even below 5000rpms.

    Someone's photoshopped the calipers on the Monaco car. It has red calipers in the original pic. :)

    All that effort to "black" out the car and no black lug nuts?

    Bianco Fuji is stunning. I looked at when I specced my Cali, was told that it was indeed a $20K option. It's a nice color, but not that nice...

    If so it would be 'Blu 3 Strati'..can someone confirm?

    Looking through the aterlier book I saw various 3 layer paints:

    Rosso Fuoco
    Rosso Monza
    Rosso Formula 1 2007
    Bianco Fuji
    Giallo 3 Strati
    Grigio Freddo (only saw in the booklet though)

    The above I have seen, but the following I have never come across even in pictures:

    Giallo Sole
    Blu 3 Strati

    I think those were the ones off the top of my head although I may have missed one.
