    Grigio Silverstone with charcoal interior, star wheels etc. It's sitting in my garage and it is spectacular.

    What an amazing family car! Have ordered the snow tyres for the winter...meantime off for a few thousand kms tomorrow!

    Congratulations !! First on FerrariChat !!
    Great Combo, US deliveries still on hold. I changed to Grigio FF and Testa Di Moro after Monza. All I know is the body was fabricated by Zanussi over a month ago. How long does it take to transport it from Modena to Maranello ???????. Earliest I judge is very late November.
    Post pics please !!!!!

    Gratz Peter ! I have grown to appreciate the FF and was more excited to jump into the rear seat during the unveiling then the drivers seat. LOL To my surprise not only did the rear fit my 6'2 frame, I didnt even have to remove my hat!

    Thanks for sharing, Enjoy it in good health.

    Sorry, but I have not had time for taking pictures! Already done 1000 kms in the first day and it is truly astonishing.

    As smooth and comfortable at high speed (saw 288km/h) as it is dwadaling alog at 160 km/h.

    Even the Bluetooth really works!

    Great chassis and it feels much smaller than it is when you throw it around. Amazing grip.

    Steering lacks a bit of feel in my opinion and the 7th rail is a bit too long as acceleration is not all that great when you put your foot down at around 160/170. But if you drop into 6th, then it really takes off.

    Seats are wonderful. No backache after so many kilometres. No wind noise. Just wonderful composure in all circumstances.

    Where have all the FF haters (ie. the people that have never seen or driven the FF) gone? They're usually so outspoken...

    That looks fantastic...I'd have mine in a dark colour as well if I was in the position to buy one!

    I really want to see a blu scozia/beige one though :)

    And what brand & size are the winter tires? I hope to order an FF late this year and since I drive my California all year (with SotoZero tires for winter) I have been looking but didn't see the right tire size at Tire Rack.

    Rick

    PS, I will bet it is STUNNING!

    Apparently. However, I never exceed the speed limits in CH....but then again I am only 110 kms from the Italian border.....

    300 km/h in the bag
