    Dear all,

    As some of you requested now I have some time to post a bit of the car.
    It arrived first week of January, after 20 months of waiting.

    Is the only 70th anniversary car in my country and 1 of 4 in Latin America.
    As you may know, only funcional equipment could be added to the 70th anniversary cars. So all the configuration comes directly from Tailor Made department.
    The only aesthetic change that I was allowed as special requiriment were the signatures in the engine bay, they are very special for me since very good friends from Ferrari sign it.
    The color is called "Grigio Ingrid 3 strati", same as normal Grigio Ingrid but with a more deep pearl effect.
    Interior trim parts are also painted in that color and the leather it has an orange effect.
    More info/pics about the car you can see it in the following article:
    http://gtspirit.com/2018/02/14/meet-70th-anniversary-ferrari-chile-tribute-375-mm-pininfarina/

    Here some more pics, not the best quality but since I have had not enough time are the only ones I have for the moment.
    Wish to share with you parts/production pics but for obvious reason I can't do it.

    Hope you like it.

    Regards
    FSS

    Absolutely love that color!

    This time for the exterior color it was given a three layer finish, offering a profound iridescent effect to this historic color, renamed this time as “Grigio Ingrid Triplo Strato”.​

    ferr9000 thank you for sharing pictures of your very special 70th Anniversary 488 GTB. There are many versions for the tailor made series but this paint color and interior color combination is one of my favourites of all those builds. A superb looking result, congrats!

    Stunning combination. I love it! Very classy.

    One thought on the engine bay- it looks like the signatures are not clear coated over, over time they are going to fade/ wear out as you wash the car, it gets use. I think clear coating over the signatures now would be nearly impossible, especially due to the heat in the engine bay. Thus, a recommendation/ suggestion: remove the parts with the signatures and have them framed, perhaps with the nice drawing, and then replace with standard parts.

    Thank you all for your kind comments.

    I really appreciate your suggestion Caeruleus11. I have a video of the whole signatures process and they are indeed clear coated.

    Excellent news! Otherwise I speak from experience, I have the same thing on my F12, but either I did not clearly state clear coat or they forgot, it was not important really, except I realized I better remove this piece otherwise the signatures will fade, So I now have it framed hanging in my garage with pics of the car from the factory around it, a little bit like a personal trophy. I'm very glad they did the clear coat for you. Its really important.

    I'm confused. Why are there Ghibli and Infiniti logos on the truck and why is this car US spec (side markers)? What country is this?

    Nothing to be confuse.
    Same group owns Ferrari, Maserati, Infiniti and other brands and the truck is used for all brands as normal.
    In my country Chile we use US specs.
