    I'd like to see some more pics of modified 456s, especially after seening the blue one in the 456 colors thread. The nero one got me wanting to see some more interior shots, and maybe some modified interiors? Anyone ever put sportier seats or anything in these? Not saying I don't absolutely LOVE the interior on the nero, just wondering if its been done?

    all you gotta do to make a 456 stand out is change the suspension and throw some wheels on it. those look great! thanks! Still have a question--

    Why don't more 456s have a scuderia badge?

    The bottom black picture Steve posted reminds me of the rear of a daytona...dunno why.

    those pics on his site are some really crappy PS jobs.

    You could just say you don't like it. But to insult like that is rather offensive.

    Yes, they are just photoshops - I mentioned in the other thread I started on it that they are only the first draft illustrations of these products. In the one day that those been posted, response to it has been very positive.

    And as for any "risk" sending a "clown" like me money, well, rest assured that I'm very serious about what I do.

    Welcome to Ferrarichat, Mike. Please fill out your profile.

    The scuderia shield is associated more with the race team. A 456 is more of a super GT, than a sports car. Save the shields for the speed racer entry level V8 cars...

    Unlike what many people say, the 456 really is the modern Daytona. From the back angle, to the hood vents, everything screams Daytona.

    I have had dealings with Ryan recently (its my car that is used for the first photo with the rear end modifications) and found him to be nothing but courteous and totally professional throughout.
    On what basis are you making these accusations? Is there a personal or professional reason for this? Please post it on this site so we are all aware of your "gripe".
    Basically I'm saying: Put up or Shut up!
    BTW please fill in your profile before posting remarks that are going to be construed as offensive or contentious. That way at least we will know if your remarks are based from an owners commitment or just another dreamer :(

    I apologize for sounding critical, but in all honesty, if i had a Ferrari and was going to order modifications, i would at least want real pictures available of the mods, to see how the carbon actually looks as the back part of the lights since with reflections and such it will certainly look different than in the photohsopped pics. the current pictures just seemed a bit unprofessional to me.
    Even so, i'm not the type who would like the modifications you have done, they seem a bit tacky IMO.
    my opinion won't matter to 99% of you though since i don't yet own a Ferrari and am just a "dreamer".
    Good luck in your business.

    Thank you for a more civil response. Well, here's the deal: there are no real pictures yet, because these parts haven't been made! There is no finished product to take a picture of yet. But I've made some large capital investments and things are rolling along. The taillight covers will be the first done and available in a few short weeks, and rest assured there will be real photos of them ASAP.

    Those photoshops were just done by myself to show people what's coming, and to sell the very first order before I plunk down money to build it. The beauty about being a Ferrarichat sponsor is that I can plan this way by actually asking the final customer what they want and then give them a preview.

    Good luck in your chem program, I'm sure you can get a Ferrari someday.

    Ryan has built himself a reputation on this board, where his word means enough to any potential buyer.

    IMO one of Ferrari's big "lost opportunities" of the early 90's was not making that 456 cabrio. Of course, 1995-on the 355's were selling like hotcakes so they maybe felt like they didn't need to do it... but that car is so good looking!

    Just finished replacing the very quiet rear mufflers with a "tube only" style exhaust. From the Cats, I go through a x-pipe into straight pipes. My 456 now sounds like a Daytona.

    BTW, this is a home made system so don't ask me where I bought it. Cost is about $300.00 and three weekends spending a little time here and there. Hardest part was getting/making the bends on the pipes right. Now that I have a template, if I ever think of doing it again, should be much easier.
