    Nice!!
    How long did it take from the delivery of your car?
    Did the Dealer give it to you or was it sent directly from the factory?
    Thx.

    Really nice! I am assuming you still have the model of your prior 458 in giallo triplo strato?

    The red is certainly very marketable but it is hard to beat the special look of that tri-strato yellow...

    Trust me - John's 458 Spider in giallo triplo strato was a stunning car to see in person. I have never been a big fan of yellow, but seeing that car changed my mind.

    Great model. Would you say they got the details down pretty good compared to the real car?

    My model arrived with my car; the only variance in the options on my Spider vs. the model are that the special order Alcantara seat inserts were not included in the model. Great quality!
