    TM is mainly for the non-automotive fabrics and special leathers

    The full electric seats are more comfy for a GT, and the heat appreciated for the Spider. That being said I would consider racing seats only after I sit in a 12C and see what the driver ergonomic space is like for my 6’2” size. If it is tight in Leg or head room the thinner racing seats may offset the tighter space. I should have done that on my 812GTS as it was way more uncomfortable with the electric seats than my SF due to lack of recline in the GTS, forcing me to move the seat forward and losing leg room so much so that I sold it.

    It's indeed azzuro la plata with blue TDF stripe. Interior color is arancio mikonos.

    Which green did you decide on - verde jewel
    I may do Sanu Silver match XX with yellow stripes.

    I’m considering rosso magma but not sure what I’d do with the interior. Safe is nero everything over red stitching but I feel the seats need a contrast material. I see a bunch of magma SP3s have a vibrant blue (elettrico?) alcantara seats which looks good.

    Any other suggestions? Cuoio Toscano?

    Rosso Magma is such a beautiful color. I also like those blue seats in the SP3's that have been posted online, they're definitely a good contrast and a bit more unique than the typical cuio or nero. Although you're correct, those two are safe colors whereas blue may not be if you're worried about resale etc.

    At the launch, I heard attendees talking about the red shade spectrum. In person, I heard of a Rosso Vinaccia and a Rosso Dino. I never thought about either of those. There has been a noticeable shift to Rosso Magma being discussed in the last 24 months. A favorite of mine, Rosso Fuoco was displaced. Some of the dark reds will look great. But it will de-emphasize the black delta wing, which I like. And I am not a light red person.

    I started with Nero Purosangue for my coupe but now she will be Argento Nurburgring over Cioccolato, painted shields and painted plastic parts in nero ds 1250 - the color of the CF parts looks weird on the outside with all the glossy black parts to my eyes…

    I am leaning towards Rosso Imola. I think it suits the car and I guess Ferrari does as well since it was one of the main launch colours.

    I decide for the same colour. See the last time many different other. But will not change. I am happy with this main launch colour and the price. And people will later look for launch colours.

    Gold wheels would be interesting as long as you avoid yellow calipers.

    I’m going to look at gold rims as well, but I don’t mind yellow calipers with them. Need to explore it more though.

    Haven’t set it yet, but this is verde jewel. If I do TM they will have some more unique options.

    I love it. Racing seats for sure. I agree on the black Daytona inserts…remove. Don’t forget painted shields. I know the renders never depict painted shields even when they are specified.

    Painted shields? I’m trying to show some fiscal responsibility here [emoji13]

    I like the car and the black Daytona inserts. Remember me for the Original Version. I prefer the GT seats with seat heating and electric adjustment.

    Interesting discussion. I am currently thinking Rosso Magma with painted shields as well, but want to see the Imola launch spec in person. I was also thinking matte gold five spoke rims like a lot of the SP3s, but my SA made an interesting point about maybe going glossy black rims to keep the continuity of the design with the front bit and delta wing.

    I have seen the car in real for 3-4 hours. In my opinion are the painted shields much to big. Better no shields or the smaller one. You will know, when you see the car. Ferrari offer me also seven pre-configured cars for a fast delivery in 2024. But not one come with painted shields.

    I agree about not opting for the painted shields.
