    amazing indeed! don't know if its Medio or Scuro but interesting the owner opted for no Scuderia Shields.....is that not standard? it usually is on special edition F cars such as 288 GTO, F40, F50, Enzo, LaF, Challenge Stradale, 430 Scuderia and 599 GTO/Aperta

    Some wonderful Speciale screams courtesy of Marchettino:

    imho the Speciale looks far more menacing without the stripe.

    The shields are not standard but a zero-cost option on the Speciale.

    I just heard that my car went to Status 85 today and a couple of hours later to Status 90. The flight has been arranged and should be arriving in Dubai coming Tuesday.

    So if all goes well, I can provide some user feedback (although it might not be useful for many, since it's my first Ferrari) within 10 days... and trust me, I will really use it (as much as allowed during the running-in period)!

    I. Am. Excited. I feel like a 15-year old prior to his first date with the hottest girl in his class... ;-)

    Don't really know, what the statusnumbers exactly mean, but congrats :D I know you're going to have lots of fun soon...
    Mine shall be completed by Feb,11th and arrive a couple of days later. So I hope winter won't take too long here in Germany.
    Not an issue for you though ;)

    Guys! Today I finalised the spec for my Speciale in the Atelier at my dealership! Instead of uploading pictures I filmed the showreel of my car that plays on the screen while choosing options. I hope you like! I have been told to expect delivery toward the end of May - I am based in the UK... Ferrari 458 Speciale Design Grigio Silverstone - YouTube

    By the way - does anyone know if the "standard"
    wheels are light weight and forged or just the upgrade wheels? When you choose a different coloured wheel the description says they are lightweight and forged but the standard wheels doesn't have this description in the atelier? I was wondering if ther is any difference aside from colour? Weight maybe?

    Thanks

    AMAZING Spec!!!! Love the Silverstone with Giallo accents for the interior. Congrats!!! Haven't seen a Silverstone Speciale in person yet but I am sure it will be incredible.

    Hi Guys,

    I tried to add a video in my last post but it didn't work so here we go again!

    After 3 hours in the Atelier I finalised my Speciale spec yesterday! Instead of pictures i thought i would take a video of the render, hope you like!

    Has anyone heard the integrated audio system? (SND2 on the options list)? I spec'd it on my Speciale as I had to for Sat Nav - just wondered how it sounds?

    I did. Don't expect a High-End Hifi System, I guess the radio I have in my kitchen sounds better ;) But for Nav you need the audio system and it's ok to listen to the radio when going at low speeds. At higher speeds the sound comes from the back :D

    Oh dear - well I guess it's better than no sound! I was half thinking about
    fixing a Bluetooth speaker between the seats ha ha. Thanks for the feedback 😊
