    Just got word that Horseless dropped off the F12 at the dealer. Will get there tomorrow and try to get some pictures. Needs to get windows tinted and clear bra put on and might get it Saturday - worse case next week. After 16 months hard to believe it's actually. Late for Xmas but I'll take it! More to come, probably next week.

    Congrats on your new arrival...
    it must be F12 end of the year delivery time..... my initial file folder date was 2014... Horseless Carriage rolled in Jan 1st... got to see mine this morning.... a long wait but well worth it... lot's of small extra's....with lot's of big numbers... hard to believe looking at it that it was really mine.... the triple Grigio Titanio paint is stunning in the sun-light...
    when I figure out how to post a pic I will put them up....

    picked up yesterday... It's hard to tell the difference between bianco italia and bianco fuji without them being next to each other. No paint issues. Put a wrap on the front end.

    It's a modern version of my '73 Daytona....obviously much quicker but you can sense its V12 heritage. It is extremely comfortable and should be good for a long trip. Room for two suitcases.

    Ergonomics are good but still quirky. Radio was a little bit of an issue - went to program it and there is no info in the manual....dealer said that the radio is new and the same as the new 488...after some playing around was able to program it. Like the fact that streaming is now part of the system. VDA is similar to the 458, though the programs took time to figure out. I like the fact there is a compass. Pleased with the Racing seats which are more comfortable than I thought they would be.

    All of the colored (brown) carbon fibre and special things we did came out great were worth the wait. Need to start driving it!

    Congratulations!!! I can feel your excitement. Really happy for you especially the wait time you had to go thru!

    Start a new thread with pics and I'll post mine as well as soon as I get a chance and we will have Mark post his when his horse arrives.

    😄😄

    Nothing. That's ok. Like yours, thinking mine will take awhile. Just knowing I'll eventually get it is satisfaction at this point. Please post interior photos when you can.
