    I like it! My only complaint would be the carpets, black carpets look better IMO.

    isn't that the most desired color combination in a Ferrari?

    Red Ferrari with Tan Daytona seats & black inserts.

    This reminds me a song, here goes: " I don't see nuthin wrong ~ ~ ~ "

    Wait, maybe the blk piping, though I am not a big fan of piping (don't like most of them), this one actually looks good.

    K, I will stick with my song ;)

    dislike (mostly b/c of the piping), but don't hate it. It could be one of those things that grows on you - and I think unique is good, to a point (coming from the owner of an orange car...)

    I love it! The daytona seats wiht contrasting stripes and piping are my absolute favorites! If you don't like the light carpet, get some black floormats. Will look awesome.

    Like. A lot. I cannot imagine that interior having a negative effect on resale.

    Love it. That was what I had ordered on my 07' F430 coupe plus I had the lower and upper carbon fiber package as well.

    Black floor mats will look better and be much easier to keep clean. beige mats get soiled very easily.

    What I plan to do is use the beige mats until they get so soiled the stains won't come out and then replace with black mats.

    Not wild about the inserts. Piping is OK...my car has them. concerned about showing wear getting in and out of the car. Love the red stitching...a must have IMVHO.

    My car came with piping. My wife thinks it looks cheesy. She also thinks the red cavillinos look cheesy. I love them. She can drive her Porsche which has no piping, no contrast stitching nor contrast logos on the headrests.

    Life is good.
    Life is better driving a Ferrari.

    May the horse be with you. ;)

    Dislike. Was never a fan of piping.

    Probably no or minimal affect on resale. Seems most people like it.

    Looks pretty damn good to me. Whats not to like?

    Even if it isn't your first preference I doubt anyone wouldn't like/hate it.

    It's drop dead gorgeous
    I would have loved to have that in my prior 430 spider.
    Had a Dino with that interior ( not the piping) and it was my favorite of all
    The LED Scuderia carbon wheel is a neat add on

    Looks fine to me. I might not order it that way personally but it certainly wouldn't put me off in the slightest.

    Not sure about the panel gap on the glove box though! :D

    I guess I'm in the minority that absolutely hates it, I specifically turned down cars that had the contrast Daytona inserts. Tan with red stiching Daytonas would be superb, though. (And CF Sport seats the best!!)

    I ordered my 430--red/tan with black carpets and black piping. I'm not a big fan of inserts but lots of people are. I would not pass on a used car that had them if I liked it otherwise. Most people ordered red piping and inserts with brown carpets, so it is a bit unusual in that regard.

    If you do get one with piping, be careful getting in and out so as not to rub it. I'm sure the color loss can be easily fixed, but better to not wear it to start. My car has 22K on it now and the interior has held up extremely well.
