    No problem! :) I've been putting in videos of what I think are "relevant"... I.E. not 17 launch event videos but just ones that show something news (new colors, wheels, option combos, reviews, etc.). I don't think anyone wants to see the red cloth pulled off the Rosso California with Nero top press car 17 times... :)

    Perfect, i am ordering Nero Daytona over Cuio, and want the chromed edges to bring out the dark of the black. I am hoping to have the Car play, and was not going to order the cameras, as i have never had them in any of my cars, so i am not accustomed to them. Perhaps without the camera, my car will move up the food chain, as i am sure the early slots are the ones who will get their cars first as they are known Ferrari purchasers.

    I think someone posted in this thread or another that CP will be available from either Oct or Dec delivered cars (US). "herenow" has his car coming in Dec and his dealer confirmed he's getting CP.

    Your spec sounds great, any thoughts on caliper color?

    Sounds great. Although I would be somewhat apprehensive with regards to ordering a lighter colored contrast stitching if your dash is part of the nero area of the interior. A lighter colored stitch (cuoio & rosso etc.) has a nasty tendency to reflect in the windshield. Just something to think about if you haven't already :)

    Btw, you do know the sport exhaust is merely an esthetic difference?

    I can't wait to see pictures of your car when it arrives! Sounds like something I would spec if I had the opportunity. :D

    Thanks MM, yes i thought about the light stitch on the dash, but the sportiness of it over came any aprehension.I do know about the sport exhaust, but its one of the cheaper options and i did not want any regrets :)

    The T looks even more 599ish than the original Cali IMVHO.

    Well, that made me do some comparing. How interesting.

    I think I can see that with the profile in particular. The shape of the back is more trim and follows the 599 more. And the cut or "shelf" in the rear quarter panel is reminiscent of the 599.

    The front bumper/grill seems to be more similar to the FF than the 599 or F12, to me.

    The hood reminds me of the 599's with those twin reverse scoops. Strangely enough, and this comes from my love of the 308 cars, the side cove reminds me of a 308/288GTO/328 albeit in reverse! Used to have a 308, and that was my favorite feature!

    A local car, Germany's certainly gotten their cars quick. I really like this now-familiar 2-tone combo but the wheels need to be a bit more interesting, a bit more special in appearance. Otherwise, it looks too pedestrian.
