    Wheel alignment?

    A semi track alignment will at least save your tyres a bit.

    The rally will be held at the new track so doing Mallala won't help .... not that it would have anyway :p

    You'll be facing the wrong way on the track as usual so I don't see that helping you either :D

    Looks like a lovely car! Love the colour combo. Blue Ferraris have slowly been growing on me for a while now, the light and dark blue look great on all Ferrari models IMO.

    With those km's, condition and being Aussie delivered, the asking price is not too bad. Oh, and the unique colour combo, wouldn't be too many F1 GTSs in Aus with that colour combo.

    I don't have time to do anything to the car, unfortunately.
    This came up a bit out of the blue and I'm working every day between now and the track day.

    My tyres are shot anyway, so this'll be a kind of last hurrah for them.

    It is a fair price. Imagine what it would be worth if it was red and not Aussie delivered!


    I agree. When I order my 488 Spider I'll probably go for the lovely blue that was on the launch car.

    Definitely a fair asking price which means it will make for a nice sold price to someone when it sells. :)

    Red 355 GTS F1 not Aussie delivered..................hmmmpf, $50K like the rest of them. ;)

    Are you going to rob a bank to place an order for a 488 Spider? :p

    I forget the name of the blue colour on the launch car, but it was mentioned many times on for forum when those pics came out.

    It is definitely a very nice colour, but I prefer Azzuro California or TDF myself. :)

    WOW!!! What a stunning machine man!! :)

    Some people say it would be a dream to own or drive a Ferrari.

    Forget that, I think the dream really is being able to order a brand new Ferrari so you can order it exactly how you want it! :)

    Please be sure to post more pics when it arrives.

    Ordered in Perth and specced at the factory but may take delivery in Bangkok depending on tax pain!! It's a fun process that was delayed by ordering blue carbon fibre which, at the Atelier, looked very dark and subtle. I'm interested to see the reality as it will either look great or a bit over the top!!

    Never knew they offered blue CF! Definitely interesting in seeing how that looks on the car. :)

    It doesn't matter if it's a little bit over the top, look at the rest of the car. :eek:

    I love the 458 but the Speciales seem to lose a little of the purity of design, the stripes , etc look dramatic but I often wonder if it wouldn't better be served with something like a Speciale script badge ?

    Nice colour scheme

    Note that this one is an "A" so very Speciale indeed.

    Having said that I agree re stripes, although I feel a little uncomfortable saying it as anyone who can spec one of these cars from new can do what they damn well like*.

    If I had been lucky enough to be in that position I would not have ordered stripes, kept it as "plain" as possible, and probably ordered that awesome red that someone recently posted, or one of the blues.

    * Strangely I don't feel remotely uncomfortable telling you that your car REALLY needs shields...

    Yep. That really is lovely (but I'd still prefer it without the stripes :))

    I can even forgive the black wheels.

    Spectacular car.

    That is the beauty about life, everyone is different and everyone has different tastes.
