    No it's Grigio Ferro. All the grey's are so sensitive to light inside/outside when being photographed that it can sometimes be quite confusing as to which shade a particular car is. I opted for Ferro this time, it being slightly 'warmer' than Titanio.

    I particularly wanted a lighter interior this time and spent loads of time trying to get what I thought would be the right interior/exterior combo. In the end, after much deliberating and changing my mind several times during my Atelier visit, I opted for a Tortora interior with Daytona sports seats with coloured inserts and stitching in charcoal to complement the Ferro paintwork. Very different from my previous Rosso/Nero, Nero/Nero and Argentino/Nero combinations.

    Can't wait to see it all in the final form now!

    I saw an instagram post with this car saying it was going to get some upgrades. Is that true and if so what is it?

    Congrats. Ordered my spider in GF as well with yellow calibers. Went with beige tradizione interior. Also quite different from my previous cars. Would love to see some pics of yours when it arrives. Mine supposed to be here in June.

    Graham thank you for sharing those details about your 488 Spider. The interior sounds especially interesting. For some grigio ferro is almost a religion! Hopefully some nice weather to enjoy the 488 were you are this spring...

    Sounds a great choice too. I deliberated for ages on interior choice and beige was my other option! Will post some interior shots once I get the car and make sure you do likewise! Roll on June for you...

    Loved your post last year, and specd my 488 spider like the white one, but with stripe on seats, a bit more carbon and the upgraded wheels. Photo just received from production line.

    Pleased to advise the group that my Spider has now arrived and I must confess to being delighted after seeing it for the first time today.

    I chose a slightly different colour way for this one knowing that there was a degree of risk in my choice as I had never seen this combo together before and the interior colour was something different.

    So here she is - Grigio Ferro with Tortora interior, Charcoal sport seat stripes and stitching and a healthy smattering of carbon fibre internally and for the rear brake ducts. It's off to get paint protection filmed and finely detailed and I'm counting the days till I have my first drive!

    A few iPhone snaps to share with you - hope you guys like it as much as I do!!

    I would never have chosen that interior colour spec but seeing the pictures it looks really sweet man!

    Well done and congratulations on the new ride.

    Regards

    Terrific color combo....love seeing folks have the balls to try something new !

    Just took delivery of mine ( Grigio Titanio with red/black interior ) about a week ago and it is currently having PPF and ceramic coating applied.

    Congrats and drive safely !
