    Tim you are indeed correct; Grigio Ferro confirmed as the paint color of the #1 488 GTB delivered by Miller Motorcars in Greenwich, CT. The car was flown to the USA for an earlier arrival...

    The 488 is improved immeasurably over the 459 in the three quarter area. The 458 is rather slab sided here but the introduction of the side vents breaks the area up nicely on the 488.

    The 488 has more design details to catch your eye but some people prefer the simplicity of the 458 design. Between the two editions; each design is interesting in it's own way.

    488 gains some advantage by simply being different from the familiar older 458 design that is now six years old...

    Indeed that is the 1965 version of Nassau Blue. For 1967 they changed to the similar looking Le Mans Blue.

    thought I was going easy there jm2, those are just the giallo modena cars. The serious yellow (giallo triplo strato) is only worn lately by the tdF.
    Have not seen that color yet for a 488....

    I will say Pat's 488 came out looking excellent with the standard wheels in silver and yellow for the fender vent divider!
