    I never would have guessed an all red interior would look so beautiful. It's amazing.

    It looks so futuristic!

    Very unique car. I kinda dig the all red interior.

    I think it looks good at first sight like love at first sight but it may bore you soon. It is too loud, IMO.

    I'm loving that colour, I've been trying to find more pictures of Celeste for a while, but it is so rare that very few examples surface. Thank you MM355 for the pictures! I particularly like it because it's nearly exact to my BMW Atlanticblau colour. By what I've seen in pictures, it's the same very rich under sunlight, very metallic light blue with a hint of green. Paired with the all-red interior, so typical from middle east, makes also a great combo. In a more standard Euro fashion, I would have probably specced a black dash.

    Red is very much indemand in middle east, I like it but its overdone. If I am getting a 458 I would order Choclate interior with Grey or White exterior.

    Do like the exterior but a little bit too much red on the inside for me.

    That exterior color does look really good on the 458. The all red interior is definately too much though. Might be tolerable with black carpets, but nero, ciocolatto or cuoio are certainly better choices.

    The owner is a flamboyant person, young and he wears a gold watch etc. hence the flashy combo

    Love the colour, hate the callipers, takes the eye away from the beautiful lines that this colour shows off so well. Definitely would have had a black dash- brave choice not for me but enjoy!

    I'll give points for the brave interior...not for me, but it looks way better than I would possibly imagine. But that exterior color/caliper color/wheel color combo is just all wrong to my eye.

    I'm sure the owner knows that the interior is flamboyant and that is how he likes it.

    To me it is interesting that this scheme is the reverse of some 50s-60s vintage cars, which were often seen in a red exterior with blue seats.

    Celeste Blue is an old Ferrari color. As can be seen in the image it to is combined with a red interior.
    Would have gone with red calipers on the 458 instead of yellow but the red interior is perfect. It has none of the busy contrasting colors that some other owners have chosen when for example they mix red and black together.

    sorry not a fan of exterior color at all and the red doesnt match it all IMO. I do like the all red interior though.
