I love this spec. Its the best that I have ever seen. Enjoy!!
Didn´t really care for coloured interiors in Ferraris before I saw this.. This is one of the best looking interiors (and car) I have EVER seen.
I'm a die-hard fan of all things black - but I love the idea of gold wheels on one side and black wheels on the other side! Do you think, if you ordered it, Ferrari would've let you do a carbon fiber shield on one fender, and a traditional shield on the other fender?
I remember someone saying the carbon fiber shields were never delivered from the factory, but an option that was installed at the dealership level. If you buy a set of cf shields, I dont see any reason why a dealership would refuse to install only one. A yellow / carbon fiber shield combo, from the factory tho, would not be possible. Love the dual gold / black wheels too.
Interesting idea! I haven't thought of that one hehe, but it should be no prob to do because the carbon shields and mirrors are done at the dealer level as they are "point of sale" items. Yes, I would assume that it is not possible from factory. Only at dealer level. No sir, not a single penny left... Out the door from factory/dealer was 477k already. Then dealer performed lowering, exhaust bypass, carbon mirrors with custom paint design, carbon shields, full set of black and gold wheels, additional TPS set with winter tires, plus an extensive clear bra wrap job. And we've breached 500k.
Keep both wheel colors. This is the best original aesthetic spec that I have ever seen on any Ferrari. Very, very cool.
I was once told by a wise man not to have more than 3 different colours on your car, I of course completely ignored that and if you ever came round to our house we have at least 10 different colours inside, LIVE IT !!
Thanks again for all the kind comments everyone! Wow, your home must be superbly unique! Sounds fantastic. The gold wheels look rosy due to the lighting, I think. The Sun was coming in from the other side and the wheels were in the shade. They do come from the factory in this color when you order the gold Speciale wheels, so, I don't think I would have the color code. I could be wrong about that. Will check the invoices and see if it is listed and get back to you if they are.
Epic! Black wheels all the way! Finally, a Ferrari with a sporty blue interior.I 'm suprised there hasn't been a yellow leather interior yet. I've always liked the very few Ferraris I've seen with a black dash, contrast stitching, complemented by a lively color that surrounds the cabin accentuated by contrast stitching. (Ex. Black dash, red stitching, red leather seats, black stitching) What white is this car? Is there some blue tint on the wheels? I've never understood how or why there's a sudden trend in having the entire sideskirts exposed in carbon. However, if the car is boldly spec'd, the carbon sides do add a very sporty and aggressive look. You took a chance with these specs and it turned out epic. I'm not gonna lie, there are alot of ugly specs out there. Image Unavailable, Please Login
Thank you ShineKen, The white of the car is the traditional Bianco Avus, but it does look slightly more stark white when compared to other Bianco Avus cars for some reason - especially before I wrapped it in satin clear bra. Perhaps over time the paint might yellow a little? I'm not sure 100% sure on that. Good eye! I've been told that the wheels have a blue tint to them, and I do see it too when they are freshly cleaned and out in an overcast day. But I cannot take credit as I specced black from the factory. Haha! I am sure that with this spec I'm already getting many shaking heads. I'm guessing it is probably quite polarizing. You either love it or you don't. I was initially debating the blue calipers, but I was told that it won't match the exact color of the Nart and I didn't want to add yet another color to the mix because I had always planned for 2 sets of wheels - the black or gold. And blue calipers might work very well with the black wheels, but IMO not so well with the gold and the overall color scheme. Eventually, I settled on the perfect balance and went with Grigio Silverstone for the calipers. Not too dark and not bright, yet goes with everything! Thanks again!
I have a white Exige, which comes 1/3 covered in 3m clear bra from the factory. I bought the car with 8,000 mi. The clear bra was indeed yellow/brownish. Looked dirty. Impossible to clean. It was an eyesore and I removed all of it. I don't know if it turned yellow overtime or if it came yellow right out of the box. Perhaps clear bra technology has improved. Your car looked great without it. I didn't think you needed it imho. . As far as painting the calipers grigio silverstone, i don't recall ever seeing anyone do that yet! One of my cars is grigio silverstone and I can see why you chose that color. It's a very versatile metallic color and gives a subtle hi tech look. Great choice . I do find it interesting they can paint your calipers GS, but they can't paint them NART blue? Are your rear diffuser flaps NART blue ? Maybe it's not too late to get a set of wheels in NART blue !! As far as value of the car goes, I am a firm believer that your car will carry a premium over the more "traditional" colors simply because it is rare and actually looks good. Regardless of miles, i don't think you'll have to worry about fetching above market prices. Only ugly spec'd non traditional colors see below market. Not yours. The white F430 I posted with it's unique red interior is fetching $150-165k (one of highest priced F430 coupes on the market.. Ask CNC) while other Rosso Corsa, Nero F430's are 110-125k. Rarity + beauty > abundant + traditional imho. I believe this will be the trend for modern day Ferraris.
