    If the GPF comes off doesnt the check engine light come on? How on earth would Ferrari approve this for warranty?

    The Novitec exhaust comes with a plug in module to the OBD port that clears the codes, we’ll see if FNA approves more.

    This is why we need FNA involved in order to do the delete properly

    I find it incredulous Ferrari would allow an OBD squelch device. Doesn’t sound right (no pun intended).

    It would be shocking if they approved a OBD plug in. They have given dealers a hard time because clients changed out exhaust back boxes in the past and that did nothing to OBD.

    A Brexit busting 4 months from order to delivery !

    I will register and actually collect in Jan so its a 2021 car.

    The Triple is very hard to photograph, these pics were colour corrected so that it looks like what it looks like in the flesh.

    The rims are not finished, they will have the insides painted satin black once I collect.

    Love the all alcantara interior. Can't wait to take it into Europe and beyond !!

    Absolutely beautiful! Love the yellow and what you did with the interior.

    I’ll be going through the same gyrations with my F8 Spider spec, and it’s really useful to see colors, options and interiors.

    Congratulations to you!

    Mine was a little less than a week apart from yours. So it seems they did come in the same ship, like I had expected.

    Also love the interior!

    Please post a delivery thread when you collect it :)

    Good chance it'll be wet, but GTS will shine in any conditions.

    An absolutely stunning F8. First Berlinetta I’ve seen in this color. Will you post a photograph of the rims once they are refinished? Thanks for bringing to FerrariChat.

    Interesting that the brakes are still an issue with Ferrari's but still fast.

    Hurracan Evo was only a few 10ths slower than F8...the Performonte was a whole 2.5 sec quicker. Interesting is that same driver, same Cup2 tires..that the old 488GTB was 1 sec quicker a lap.
