    How come so many people are hating on his decision of Pearl White, lol. I personally think the car looks stunning and considering this is prob the only pearl white f430 I dont think resale will be that hard of a problem. I myself, would pickup that color in a second

    Standard white, yes. Pearl White, NO. I've seen a few pearl white cars in the Gulf. They really look gay. A standard white car is cool.

    But again, it all boils down to personal taste.

    I guess we'll see. Make mine red/tan please with badges and I'll use the difference to buy a pearl white 911TT as a daily driver.

    Paul,

    No need to be a *****head and make a jerk of yourself. Let me give you some advice: never attack another guy's wife in any way or form, it's just one of those things we don't do on the forum. Then again, by your choice of color it's appallingly obvious that you wouldn't have a clue about what's right or wrong.

    If you're so happy with it, you wouldn't care what people say. Sounds like someone woke-up and realized they'd screwed-up when they played "spin the color wheel". Good luck unloading that thing......

    I think Paul's retort to you was quite appropriate given how disrespectful your original post was about his car. You dragged your wife and her criticism of it into this thread, so don't be surprised if someone responds to her criticism.


    and... What's up with all the "gay" comments on this thread ? I hate "political correctness", but come on, there's hardly a need for such homophobia. I think the pearl white is a stunning, unique choice and I applaud the owner for choosing something that different. I love it, and this is with an unblemished track record of hetrosexuality. I don't think I'd be bold enough to order it for myself though, but that does not detract from the color at all....

    Steve, Your not very bright or you would of realized I was calling you out as an insecure self appointed ferrari facist who was so threatened by a strangers color selections you slung some **** and then ducked behind mama's apron. That's the only part that's disturbing. I mean no disrespect to your wife. She must be a saint to be with a man with who uses a car to validate his life. Please do us both justice and don't attempt to give me any more advice, hook me up, or worry about the residual value of my car. Just wish me luck on my new car and be happy that I am thoroughly pleased with it.

    The color is Maserati's Bianco Fuji. It was used on the Maser supercar and Ferrari charged $17,479 for it. I know big number but it's because it was a three stage paint process. The pearl effect is much more apparent in person, Ill try posting better pictures in the future. Thanks

    Couldn't agree more. Steve, you opened yourself up to Paul's comments about your wife when you brought her and her opinions of his car into the discussion. He didn't disrespect her with his posts.

    Also, your criticism of Paul's car was unnecessarily harsh with terms like "fugly", "worthless", "disjustice", etc... Then you continue on that he'll have a problem unloading it when it comes time to sell it, as if he cares about losing a few extra grand because there are less buyers for it than a red/tan car. The guy just dropped an extra $17,500 for a color he really wanted. He obviously doesn't care about what will happen when he goes to sell it. I suspect he won't have as much of a problem as you think he will.

    I love pearl white on the F430, I prefer it with red interior though.

    If it were a Porsche though, my dream Porsche is a GT3 White on Blue Suede... :cool:

    I, as well, had an early Porsche Turbo in pearl white that I special ordered and imported. I never tired of the color, with dark burgundy interior, and the second owner still has it to enjoy. After so many black, red, and silver cars, it was a great, unique change.
