I was actually surprise on the Extra Colors on the paintjob. It has Orange and Skyblue. What the? but I still like it.
You mean Rosso Dino? Actually looks like this: http://www.carfront.com/wp-content/gallery/rosso-dino/f4301.jpg The skyblue is a variant of a shade of blue was especially prominent on Alfas and italian cars in the 50's and 60's.
Yes. It's my first time to know the name of the orange color. The skyblue I think it is Azzurro Dino. I saw one in ferrari-collection.net when I was searching on Ferrari Colors.
I am sure this will produce a torrent of disagreement, but I find the Ferrari configuartors pretty simplistic and misleading, most particularly on the paint colors. Even the Maserati configurator does a better job and there used to be a truly brilliant and accurate configurator on the UK owners site which was taken down, I believe at the behest of Ferrari. All I can say is my car, a California, looked identical to the configuartors when it arrived and was perfect. I am just speccing my 458 Spyder and have been waiting for this configurator but if it were to look anything like the configurator suggests in Grigio Titanio, I would want my money back! Also, why none of the really non standard colours, the three coat paints? In short I think they should spend some more time and money on this service as otherwise you are better off going to your dealer and looking at all the cars and alternatives. No hardship!
You're 100% correct. I feel like the nero colors are realistic but not much more. IMHO, it's more about interior, CF options, seats and rims that you can play with on the site. It's always better to see the colors and combos in person and on an actual car IMO. Still a great way to spend some time.
Can't agree more.... The Grigio Titanio on the configurator looks terrible and in no way is representative of the actual color.... Tony..........
Very nice !! Racing carbon package wonderful Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
I like the new CF options, particularly the triangle on the lower body and the ones that feed the air intakes above the humps. Also, there's a new CF "sport package" that seems to put most of the CF dash, steering wheel, and console together in one group. This is also a good idea. I like the CF rear grill too. What's with the new "front and rear lift" option? Is that for backing out? Now if I can just get a freakin' allocation!
I'm playing around with it now. They need to put an option for a colored center stripe on the racing seats. -G.B.

Nice. Only thing I would change is the upper dashboard to black (to reduce glare) and a black steering wheel. Then it's perfect! Nice spec! -G.B.
