    Thank you
    apologies as I am not sure but this area seems ragged

    BTW, Dealers have been taking books and tools for decades as they know the value

    I think this car is absolutely gorgeous! However,…
    I can’t get past the fact, they did a complete color change and didn’t pull the glass or interior, leaving it red. You’re 90% there, why not spend an extra 40 hours (probably closer to 20) and complete the job. We owned a body shop for 30 years so I know what’s involved. Whoever painted it red did it correctly. As much as I love this vehicle and color combo I would never be able to get past this issue. Personal preference ,which probably wouldn’t bother me in any other car, but Ferrari exemplifies excellence, or at least it should. 2cts


    I’d have to finish it

    Thanks Sergio, It is true that this part looks broken, and in fact, the left and right sides are different, which could be perfectly normal. However, perhaps an expert can clarify or confirm whether this is indeed normal. In any case, this requires verification by a specialist in the PPI.

    100% agreed. I want to go see the car again and lift the window rubber joint to check if I find red or black paint. I’d like to think that at some point later on, the glass was removed and the car was properly repainted, but this can be verified.

    But the car and the potential buyer here is in Europe and US car are VERY hard to sell in Europe. "Big" mirror, turn signal and cat ... And as said a friend of mine : The nice US car still remain in US. Americans keep them for themselves ;)
