    Joe,
    Was the assembly line for 288s exclusively for 288s? Or could there have been other models between? Im asking cause I wonder if that last pic ^^^you posted (56779) might have been a 288 right in front of mine (56783) of if there was another 288 sandwiched between?
    Bottom line is: is 56781 a 288 or not?

    There were some Mondials & Testarossas in-between.

    Yes, 56781 was GTO, 56781 - ZFFPA16B000056781, AC, PW, Italy, Japan, and it was indeed the car between 56779 and yours.

    Back to Spool: 2016 Ferrari 488 GTB & 1985 Ferrari 288 GTO

    Road and Track did a fantastic comparison piece between the 488 and the 288. Of course we all know which one we'd prefer, and of course we all know a 30 year gap makes any fair comparison sort of moot, but the pictures and the writing is pretty great. Worth the read. Pieces like this show R&T continue to get better and better, which is nice to see.

    @roma1280 Totally off topic so forgive me for asking but I was curious if you are going to get a Huayra Roadster? I'm assuming that current owners will have first crack at getting a build slot. I hope you are. I would love to see a roadster version of your Gemini Uno in the same spec. That would look amazing! Or a bare carbon fiber with the "signature rojo red" interior that is in the original 2012 Geneva show press car. Thanks in advance if you take the time to reply.

    Each to their own. I find the current crop of cars the most exciting cars they've made since the 1990s.

    I'd agree with that. My comments were in the context of a comparo of the 488 & Speciale with a truly legendary Supercar like the 288 GTO, which is a bit unfair.
