    Amazing!

    In the side by side shots the 458 looks like it's the badass GTOs girlfriend!

    Good eye. The rear view mirror has the monitor built in.

    Love the Valentine 1 integration into the mirror. Who did that work? wanted to do that when my 458 shows up so that I dont have an awkward power cable lying around, etc.

    Does anyone know how or who does that with Valentine Ones into Ferrari rear view mirrors?

    Thanks,
    George

    WOW! Nicest GTO look I've seen. Interior looks really nice too since I don't like the alcantara look for the most part but the carbon and darker colors make it blend nicely. Black is just so nice and elegant looking almost. More of a sleeper look than the other GTO's, it's ready to just shock a passenger or nearby driver.

    Great dealer. Hopefully the lamborghini sells soon :)). They sold my California and did a great job.

    As if the GTO wasn't special enough as it is. You've gone and Top Trumped right there. Stunning.

    Is the matte finish on the interior carbon fiber standard or an option?

    I believe forum sponsor Bradan does this.

    It makes it look like cheapo plastic. Maybe it looks decent in person.

    Personally I think it looks silly if half the body panels are bare carbon and the rest is painted. Should be all of one imo

    I'm curious to learn why you decided to pair the 458 and 599, instead of keeping the Cali. Seems your two current cars are very similar whereas the Cali would offer more of a different experience.

    The Cali is a great car but the 458 is more of
    My daily driver now and the GTO is too special to take all around town. Just what works for my "needs" :). Good question.
    Cheers
