    I honestly think that the 458 Spider will be the most on-demand Ferrari since the introduction of the 360 Modena. My guess is that sticker for an average equipped car will be around 300K. None the less, everyone and their brother will want one. And, I would guess that once production starts, US dealers will ask for a minimum of 50K over sticker.
    And, most likely, they will get it.

    Ah, I hope they (the dealers) don't start that again. I personally know of numerous people, myself included, that were put off by 50-75k over sticker for the 430. One of the reasons I got a 458 was that i could get one at MSRP with a 12-18 month wait.

    Maybe. I can't wait to see it. Ferrari says it has a hard top, not fabric.

    or Not. Mine is coming in at MSRP, not a dime more and I get the launch car. Your dealer is bad if they are putting a premium on it.

    Doh! I didn't view it at first because I thought it was a different video, one where they teased at top opening but didn't show it. Thanks.

    Very cool. Any chance you'll be around the first couple weeks in October? I'll be driving through and it would be cool to check it out.

    Looks like the rear deck is split..the front part opens to store the roof...the back part with the vents would be over the engine...they might actually be functional.
