    I agree, it is incredible. Did any of the cars have Daytona inserts?

    The yellow car seems to be metallic - a new colour introduced?

    Dark color is a must on this car. It nicely blend the designs/lines together. And the 20" wheel is a must.

    Nice pics, keep them coming.

    Yellow was indeed a metallic/pearl and looked amazing, there were no stickers on the cars under the hood or in the door jamb so no idea what the color is called.

    There were 4 cars total, Yellow, Daytona, Regular red and a pearl red (prob New Rosso Scud but difficult to tell in the lights).

    The yellow car had the luggage set, the front trunk is deeper in the middle than a 430, and is wider at the top also, but a weird shape - a little like a TR where you could put something wide but not so deep on top of your other bags.

    And what's your impression of the more 'controversial' aspects of the styling (for me it's the front that's questionable in most of the pics I've seen so far) now that you've seen it in the flesh?

    I agree. Was thinking the same. Looks to be a pearl yellow. If it is, bet it will be an
    optional cost

    Not sure yet - I think for me its just "new" right now. I think if you remove the horse on its little prong you fix the front. The only thing that isn't good enough IMHO is the plastic around the dash in the interior, I understand that they will want to sell the carbon alternative but the basic version is very plastic. (I do hope there IS a carbon version).

    What were they thinking with that stupid horse detail? In many countries there'll be a numberplate there.

    Thanks dan for an honest opinion and not a snap judgement.

    The front number plate issue still seems like it might be a problem for the styling. Interesting to note that, despite two of the cars having rear number plates, none had front plates...

    Not just rear number plates but identical FE 458 ITA number plates on both the red car and the black car. Were the plates official issue or just for display?
    Was the display in the garage where they hold the annual auction? More pictures please!

    The plates are not real, as Italian plates are two letters-three digits-two letters. So, just for display.

    Ciao,
