    The story I like (not sure if it’s myth or fact) is that it comes from the initial racers needing material for a seat cover and they used the blue material from the team overalls. I’d love it to be true!

    Been away/offline for a bit enjoying life, but checking in @ 17.5k miles..... mileage has slowed down but my love for this Bella macchina has not!

    As a teen I had a poster of the 360 CS on my walls, and after the 355 I thought it was the freakin coolest thing ever to be able to see the engine in its full glory like that with the mid-engined V8s. This thing belongs in the Louvre!

    So much fun! I will admit that life has been crazy since I got her so she is not been driven a ton. Just makes any time behind the wheel that much more of an experience.

    Did take her to a car show and someone took this photo which I thought turned out nice.

    Hope you are doing well and enjoying your drive time.

    Great to hear! I’ve been fortunate to have been driving mine a bit: went from 470 miles in Dec to 1600 miles currently. I’m sure I’ve depreciated the hell out of it (relative to if it were still 470 miles), but I’ve enjoyed every minute of it! These are amazing machines. I hope you continue to enjoy yours in good health!

    Here’s a pic taken by a local photographer (IG: @sky_londa_mc) while I was enjoying one of those miles up in the Santa Cruz Mountains :)

    That’s not depreciation, that’s memories for a lifetime! These cars are milage sensitive and I will be the first to admit that I am sensitive to that but we are all lucky to be so blessed!

    I hate to quote myself but the dealer got back to me.

    then CEO of Ferrari Financial Services AG (Dr. Ahrabian) had his own color mixed for this color. After 5 years, this color can now be ordered from dealers. "Blu Ahrabian". Dark in the shade but with a slight glitter effect in the sun.


    I love this color.

    “Groceries “

    When I first got my 430 manual in 2010 I would tell my wife I was going to the ATM to deposit a check. In the next state.

    I know the feeling.
