    Even more rare is the 'Paint to Sample' pale green chosen for this 458 Italia Spider model >

    * Note the front grill area has been painted the body color rather than the standard black finish commonly seen on the Italia.

    Damn that green one is ugly :D :D

    As for Rosso Dino - it is not so good in person and it doesn't suit the 458 well. It's not exactly orange, it's not exactly red either and it doesn't have any "deepness" in it. It looks a little bit like faded Rosso Scuderia.

    Colors can look very different on pics. For example - here is how bright a friend's Rosso Corsa 458 looks when sitting next to my car.

    Interesting color comparison, thanks! The Rosso Dino is a Ferrari Historic paint color and non-metallic so typically it has a different look.
    The light green is the sort of color you might see in Florida USA.

    Yes, I know, but I have seen a 458 in Rosso Dino in person and didn't like it... For me the perfect red for the 458 will always be Rosso Scuderia. It makes it look almost surreal :)

    of2worlds, I don't know man, I don't think that color suits the car. Maybe it's because of the ugly single-color front bumper. Ferrari made these parts black for a reason. now it looks like someone has repainted this bumper and didn't know exactly how to do it properly.

    I agree the missing black paint on the front bumper makes the result look rather awkward on that Spider. Color is always a personal preference; that is what the customer chose so only he knows the reason for it. :)

    No definitely a coupe and not a spider. Not sure about the fitting there...

    I think that is a latch for a child car seat. I believe I read that in the manual or specifications at one point, but I can't find the reference now.
