    Another vote for the thin 5 spoke wheels. Thanks for sharing your 458 sighting. Nice neighborhood!

    I apologise for the quality of the photos....taken with my phone! The thin wheels are much better suited to the car than the standard wheels IMHO. I've seen several cars now, and I think it no contest as to which wheel gives the car a better appearance. The neighbourhood is nice.....but $10 for a diet coke wears a bit thin after a while...!!

    ...saved the best angle for last! In the view of many those rubber flaps and the headlight arrangement have compromised the front appearance. It seems the chrome horse can't
    'save' the front view either.

    Love it. I still say those front tires are just a hair too skinny. It looks off.

    Did anyone for a moment think there was a hint of blue to the color? I must be seeing things.

    Yet another (unsucessful) attempt to find a decent home for the front plate.

    I'm curious, is it possible to have the front spoiler "fins" painted? I think red fins in contrast to the black would be interesting.

    Absolutely amazing. The California scared me a little bit, but they totally redeemed themselves.
