    Me too, azzurro California being my favorite Ferrari color, along with grigio alloy, azzurro metallizato, etc. When I was 458 shopping though there were no blue cars other than TdF on the market. After seeing how good wraps could be by visiting www.incognitowraps.com and checking out a 488 they were working on, I decided that I could just buy a neutral color and wrap it.

    That said, if I were to order an F8 I would seriously consider the McLaren paint 'Belize Blue.'

    Can someone advise me whether my car in the previous post has silver wheels or diamond cut wheels?
    I don't have the build sheet in my possession and the car was advertised with diamond cut wheels, but I
    think that they are silver, which is fine with me. Just need to know in case I need a replacement wheel.
    Thanks.

    We took both cars for a drive on a mountain road and the 458 definitely feels wider than the 911, but it is much more fun to drive (and just as quick). Interestingly, the old Maserati (albeit underpowered in today's world) used to feel big 10 years ago but nowadays it feels really small and nimble. It is the one I prefer to throw around really narrow twisty roads because I know I will always have enough room.

    Those are plain silver, not diamond cut.

    BTW, love your clean spec, very nice.

    Thank you,, Garretto. I suspected that they were plain silver.
