    When did Ferrari stop putting these interior plaques on?, I rather liked it, but note my new spider is without, and indeed never had an opportunity to spec one, and looking at other pics it seems they don't do this anymore.
    I have searched the forums for ID plaque/Dedication Plaque etc but to no avail......does getting a model of your car through the post at a later date the replacement for these plaques?

    I liked the dedication plate and thought it was standard as I had seen it in a california. I, too, would have specced it had I known it had to be specced. There is an option called "dedication plate in silver" on the price list (approx. $600), but I thought this is if you want silver finish.

    Ahhh that's where it gets a little confusing, they seem to use the name 'dedication plate' for the plaque on the spider that sits on the back shelf between the seats, you can put a little motto or whatever on it, think there is a few on here that have done that.
    Not quite sure what the plate I am referring too is actually officially called, maybe that is also called a dedication plate,...bit confused.
    Yes my 2010 & 11 italias and every F car I have owned previously has had the plate , spider is my first f car without.
    Really thought this would of come up on this board before, but can find no reference to it

    Odd, when I specced my 2013 coupe (in early 2012) it was an option I think. I decided against it.

    The dedication plate is an extra-cost option, mounts on the rear bulkhead between the seats with wording you can specify. It's really a "this car custom built for xxxx". I've seen them, they are nice

    The plate shown above I am unsure what the official name is but our cars have them....have not noticed if Spiders do not....

    That plate is called the World Champion Placard in English or CAMPIONI DEL MONDO 2004 MARK in the parts catalog for the one for 2004 in my 575M.

    Mines a 2012 and never noticed to be honest, think it may not have it. Our old 430 did.

    Maybe they stopped putting these World Championship Placards on since the recent years' F1 performance does not long warrant it?

    My 2014 Italia does not have this plate. I was wondering why, not that I really care.

    The plate had the car serial no on and to my mind was a classy addition to the interior. Ok not won a world championship for a while, but just saying ferrari maranello and the serial no and build date would be a great thing to have on a plaque

    I think they stopped mid 2013. My 2013 spider doesn't have it but I've seen other 2013's with it. All my previous cars had it. It was not an option and it had the last 6 digits of the VIN on it.
