    I believe you. The stripe is not hard to perfectly replicate.
    Unfortunately the dealer took advantage of you . Sounds like they have the same ethics in your part of the world as they have here.

    True; but our income tax rates are way higher than yours.

    Stripes are $19k here FWIW. Strong incentive to get them done after market for a few $K

    wonder how it will compare with the corvette system with its nicely integrated camera and tons of data.

    Seems even more sophisticated: looking at the video, it seems to give feedback to the driver in real time...

    ^ Is it just the angle, or does that picture of the interior have some of the worst stitching ever?

    Yah that yellow stitching below the light switch looks like the little nonna doing the work may have sipped too much grappa at lunch. ;)

    I thought the same. The problem is I am a Ferrari fanatic and a perfectionist. And this two things doesn't fit well together as we see. I would be a bad Ferrari costumer :)

    Well you could buy a production Ferrari and fix all the imperfections yourself, is just material and labor.

    Those are wonderful high resolution photos. Thanks!

    The wheels appear to be larger than stock and perhaps the car has been lowered a bit too. Very aggressive looking. The yellow stripes around the wheel rims are a fantastic touch with the shields and yellow clippers. Is that Silverstone?

    Cheers,

    I like that color and wheel spec but I still cannot get over how lambo kit car the front looks.

    The Speciale looks so much better without either of the hideous stripe options offered by Ferrari. I'm relatively conservative when it comes to modifications but I must admit that I really, really like those wheels. Purposeful and aggressive, they suit the lines of the Speciale surprisingly well.

    As an aside, Grigio Silverstone is the color for this car (IMO).

    Solid stripes look great on the white Speciale

    I like it. Good thing the stripes are left out. Like the Grigio Silverstone. Rims are awesome but yellow band a bit over the top.
