    Are you running some sort of winter tires?

    Beautiful car, by the way!

    I like! Is the interior chicolatto? What is the exterior color? Looks great, enjoy! :)

    Great to see so many FF owners really enjoying their cars exactly as intended by Ferrari. Is your spec Silverstone over Iroko? It's beautiful, I like the dark wheels with it as well

    As I get more and more cynical each and every day....... why didn't you just write 'chocolate' rather than attempt to spell Cioccolato.

    Probably for two reasons: one the colour (or color?) is called cioccolato and not chocolate and two, to see who is going to be a*ally retentive enough to pick such an argument.

    If you like his choice of colours and want to tell him, do so. Otherwise, keep your nasty little comments to yourself.

    I was not being remotely nasty...I was being massively cynical.
    Why attempt to identify a car's factory paint name or interior colour if you do not use the correct factory names?

    You might as well just refer to this FF as grey with brown interior, which I think looks very nice.

    Because, there are several greys and probably 4 or 5 browns not including customs. It is also hard to tell sometimes by pictures. You chose an opportunity to be snarky. This is a car nut forum, not dumb it down forum.

    I call mine metalic grey to the uninitiated after calling it silver for a long time then discovering silver is a lot lighter.

    I was underneath one of them yesterday at my dealer with the lower panels removed. This car is a wonder! The front gearbox is really cool. It drives power from the front of the crankshaft while the rear wheels get power from the rear. The mechanic says this car just scoots out of corners like nothing else.

    Cynical or just angry at the world?

    You really need to drive one ... and in the wet or the snow too, it is way more fun than should be legal ... even in Las Vegas:D Let me know if you are ever in NW Ohio.

    Wet, snow, or dry it pulls you through turns ... pulls really hard as well, very easy to feel. Big difference from the California.

    No, that would be me......and boy am I struggling for a guy with so much to be thankful for. For those over 47, does it pass?

    So as not to derail the thread, does anybody else find the seats and driving position a bit uncomfortable? Maybe I've got to work on it a bit more. I've got the full electric Daytona's.

    Ahhh, you want to debate the difference between cynicism and nastiness on a forum like this?

    If you have a Ferrari, suggest you sell it ASAP and invest the proceeds in a much-needed psychiatrist as you fall into the category of those who suffer from a psychological problem - they are a**h*les.

    It took me a while to find a good driving position (I am used to the low seats of a 911) - my suggestion: try different ones and store them as 1, 2, 3 in the seat memory so you can play around. Soon you will find a great position!

    The interior is Testa di Moro, which is a bit different than Cioccolato, the exterior is Grigio FF.
