    Congrats on a very high spec FF! The diamond quilted seats are an elegant touch. Good luck taking delivery next week.

    It was by far my favorite car! And if not for an incoming GTC4Lusso, I would have never let it go! Enjoy!

    Sweet. I'll see you in my TDF blue FF around town!

    Looks like Ron is also a Grand Canyon State fellow. :)

    Is it from FoScottsdale? I didn't see one like that at all. You probably get access to the "special pre-sale.":) The last 3 FF's there were: a Neiman Marcus version, a grigio with toscana interior, and recently another grigio with cuoio interior.

    I was offered it when it first came in, but it took some time to get the deal done, and it was on the website for a week or so. I told them what I was looking for so they contacted me when it came in. They are great guys at Scottsdale Ferrari.

    Definitely looking good!

    What's the %VLT for those side and rear windows? Any heat cutting clear windshield tint? Ron will probably need to help with answering. Gotta ask folks from the southwestern region.

    Plain old window tint. Car was delivered new to Scottsdale Ferrari to me in August. Window tint is the only aftermarket change to the car.

    O...Huper Optik ceramic. Installed it on my 911. Love it. Would have put it on my Cali, but it came with the thermal insulating windshield. Since you live in Tejas, I'd do it and max legal tint elsewhere when you find your F-car. Better yet, if you can find an F-car with the insulating glass, it's worth it in my opinion.

    What's the reason you cannot have it on the thermal insulating windshield?

    Beautiful car and the FF was my favourite of all time. Can't wait to get back into a V12 2+2. Enjoy.

    It'd be redundant. I use it for heat rejection. I guess you could also coat insisted windshield if you wanted to cut down on UV. Gotta do some research!

    I see. IIRC, recent years Ferrari already have dual layered side glass and maybe for the rear as well. However, there is nothing between the 2 layers and thus UVA still penetrates and thus the need for plastic sheet tinting.

    On the other hand, the front windshield on any passenger vehicle in the US already blocks nearly 99-100% UVA and UVB due to USDOT requirement for it to be laminated. Thus it has EVA or PVB between the glass layers. Thus the only thing left is the heat coming thru the glass.
