    I think the 458 looks great in GS, showing off its curves without taking away from the whole. (If I win tomorrow night I'm getting a GS Speciale without shields -- not holding my breathe . . .)

    You know I have to say I am completely amazed by this thread. If somebody had asked me how I thought this would've gone in advance I would've thought for sure red, red, red. My 360 is Grigio Titano and I love it for all of the well stated reasons above. I'm glad to know there's so many other drivers out there that feel the same. Cheers🍾

    Nice combination. Do you have a pic of both cars together in the sun?

    Maybe the best two colours together with Rosso Fuoco for the 458 body.

    Metallics and pearls are best to show shapes and curves.

    Argento is holding me up. This car has 6k less miles and is $10k less expensive. Granted, it lacks race seats and driver zone carbon.

    Which color? It's hard to tell under the sun from the photo. Both are stunning in the 458/Speciale body.

    RC and Giallo Modena does not show the lines well as it flattens them, like Mayor said. Mugello is very dark and not metallic. This is not about whether or not they are nice colours etc. it's about what makes the lines stand out, not the silhouette of the car - there's a difference.
