did your dealer tell you when you should expect your car to deliver? Also did they get you the allocation?

 

Great purchase. Also interested in how long it takes for it to be delivered.

 

Feb 2014 or so

 

Awesome.

Can't wait to see it. Bet you are even MORE anxious.

 

Niiiiice! What, no CS stripey?

 

Nice spec. Do you have any pics of the bi-colore roof on the F12? Haven't seen it anywhere yet.

 

There's a bi-colore roof F12 in the F12 picture thread. 2nd or 3rd from last page.

 

Nice spec...Rosso Scuderia is my favourite color.

Can you lower the car without damaging the Front Suspension Lift in the long run?

 

Ok, it's time! Got a call from dealer. Allocation in. I'm ordering Tuesday night. Build Jan. delivery March 14. I'm good w my original spec. Only thing I'm debating is front lift. I don't use it ever on 458.

 

You don't need the front lift.

 

I had to wait 6 months.
You will a nice car, the stereo by JBL is a ggod choice...
Yours,
Oliver

 

Maranello has come back with rendition of what my bi-colore roof will be like. Unfortunately they made a mistake and instead of matte it's gloss. Car is almost complete so if I want matte, I have to wait for another allocation. I am liking the gloss and I will go for it. By the way, the renditions are just to show the roof and the rest of my specs are different form these photos. No yellow caliper for me. Too Porsche! My specs are in my original post. Thoughts?

Well, you asked....not my taste at all. Neither Scuderia (much too loud and much too orangey) nor bicolor roof look good on a F21 and neither do the rims. Hope you enjoy, thats All that matters.

 

I'm a big fan of the bi-color roof on the 599. Seriously considered it for my HGTE but passed because of the extra cost (= € 15k back then and went for Grigio Ferro Met from the 50-60 color line) but selected it immediately for my GTO.

On the F12 on the other hand ... wouldn't be my personal choice as I feel it doesn't work as well on the F12. But that is personal. All that matters is that you like it and enjoy it. Nothing else matters.

Will be a stunning car nonetheless. Congratulations and enjoy lots of miles in it

 

Nice spec S! Going to look stunning in person.

 

Stick with the glossy roof you can always wrap it in matte if you dislike it after a while.

 

Glossy looks okay with me, but if you wanted it matt, then I would hold out for matt. Matt will look good as well. I don't think that one will look drastically better than the other. When the beauty competition is down to the final two or three girls, they all look equally good, but obviously have differences.
