    I was thinking about Grigio Scuro as well but my wife made the argument that we had grey Fcars in the past but somehow never had a red one ... so I went for Rosso Imola :)

    I saw this same car at the dealer and thought it was the best spec I had seen so far, on a physical car. The interior was exactly what I have spec’ed too.

    Agree - looked great! Interior is also the same as mine but I went for the silver / black wheels and not the totally black ones so its pretty much as I had ticked the boxes

    Dear Of 2 Worlds
    Perhaps you’ve seen this video about the story and restoration of a 250, 1962.

    It had several owners and eventually was abandoned. It was restored with an mis matched body but then was bought by a true lover.

    Working with Ferrari the original body was retrieved and used. and A complete restoration was performed with Scaglietti and Ferrari.

    The car was repainted in its factory color a deep dark blue black.

    Any idea on the color? It appears darker than Pozzi blue named after the European dealership owner and race team principal.



    Interesting to learn that the factory preferred to use leather and cloth interiors due to the weight savings!

    So the design teams move to use Alcantara and leather is actually a historic reference remembering its racing tradition and struggles to win.

    I’m going with the designs teams use of Alcantara in the lower dash and lower cabin zone.

    A non metallic 2 layer paint without metal flake is also lighter and more historic choice.

    This car is my final Ferrari. Yes I ve over -thought all of these choices. So once I have taken delivery of the car, all of these deliberations, will be lost. “Like tears in Rain.”

    I prefer the upper dash in black as color will reflect on the windscreen

    It's Blu Scuro.

    Indoors, depending on the lighting, Blu Scozia can look quite similar to Blu Scuro, as in the photo day355 posted above.
    However, in sunlight, Blu Scozia lightens, while Blu Scuro maintains a much darker hue. Both are excellent choices.

    More silver is the perfect antidote for the 'black holes' syndrome on this Viola Hong Kong painted example. Lots of shift in the paint color >

    Artico? Has slight blues and grays? Cooler color than other whites.

    Hawking’s wheels or black holes.
    I’d have chosen a silver or gray rim-cast or forged

    To the owner's credit they chose exterior carbon and not the shiny painted black plastic option...

    The exterior color looks to be a dark green.
    The interior color is hard to tell but the forward dash is not black.

    The design team has created an interior and exterior design which offers an endless number of choices.

    The owners car will be one of a kind

    I’m not sure that is preferable to a design team narrowing these choices down with a better and more cohesive and more mature final design.

    The UK weather certainly encouraged a great variety of cars including this 12 Cilindri coupe. The license plate might sum up this owner's interest in his Ferrari V12 here. The paint color looks like Blu Tour de France >

    The blue 12 Cilindri above is a demo car that belongs to Meridien Modena, the main dealer in Lyndhurst, Hampshire.
