    I'm sure most people did. They apparently had some delays on delivering them though.

    Never understood what this was for. Once in place, if you want to take it off there is nowhere to put it...and are you seriously going to drive at high speed in the wet?
    As you might guess, I didn't take the option!!!!

    i completely disagree. I'm a BIG fan of black wheels. Two reasons :

    1. I never understood the trend of 'highlighting' the wheels. Always felt kinda ghetto, to me, to 'show off your rims' :(

    2. I especially hate 'highlighting' the wheels, if the wheels themselves introduce a new color into the car's palette.

    Let the wheels disappear, i say, especially if black is represented somewhere else, low on the car.

    Just a matter of opinion, i suppose :)

    Also like that they hide brake dust - though carbon brakes don't tend to produce too much ...

    From the Blue TDF collection owner, it has to be a full repaint rather than a wrap :)
    Also, it seems the carbon fiber also got a blue tinted treatment.

    Still can't believe Ferrari imposed such a limited colour choice on a $2m+ car and left owners with a full respray as the only option.

    Yes the carbon got the treatment. Also redid the interior...!!

    What's a wrap? A type of sandwich, I believe!! No this is REAL paint

    I think this one is really unique!!

    Actually, Mr Marchionne has decided that the badge needs to be on both sides and there is a recall to retrofit on those delivered. I have refused to add the passenger side as I find that on one side only is like a signature...sometimes less is more...

    Please note my attentions to detail: the bianco fuji lines on the side indents and the enamel Italian flag....and the FXXK wheels redone in grigio corsa...

    I have immediatly noticed all of this.

    So the LafA is a now duplicate of your Laf...

    About the interior... How did it come from the factory ? Black alcantara ?

    Did you request to the interior done using the same material used by the factory ?

    I really admire your courage to turn such a rare and expensive car into your exact personnal wish.

    This is a true f'n enthusiast... you drive the hell out of your cars, you repsray them if needed... no garage queen or greedy flippers there .

    Thumb up Peter !
