Tomorrow is the day!

Regarding the upgraded sound system, I found the same thing in my new 488 Spider. The audio system takes a lot of hits in the forum, and to some extent it's justified (I was a 2-channel freak at one point, spending almost the cost of the 488 on audio gear), but I've been surprised at the improvement differences between my upgraded system, and the standard system of a friends 488. He agrees, and now wishes he had included it in his spec.

Nice car. Too bad about that house.

 

Congratulations! Beautiful!!!

 

Not to step on Daves thread but it's nice to hear Ryan you are back in a Ferrari again
Last I remember you had a 430 then a 458 for just a bit?

 

I had a 430 then a 458 Italia for about 18 months. Sold the Ferrari to buy a new home at the time. I then drove a 991 GT3 for a little while (actually had 2 of them, one white then sold that one for a black GT3) but missed the special feel of the Ferraris. I considered another 458 Italia and almost pulled the trigger on a nice example in Illinois but ended up grabbing a allocation on a 2018 488GTB with a short 5 month wait so I went for it. I wanted to try something new being I already experienced the 458 Italia. I Cant wait!!

 

Sure it's a red 488 but the house is very cool to. Congrats on the arrival of your Continental Ferrari!

 

The 991 GT3 is a amazing car for the money. Now, to be fair the price point of a GT3 is about $100,000 to $125,000 less if not more than a nicely optioned 488GTB. The GT3 does soo many things well but it certainly does not provide the same ownership experience as a Ferrari... especially a 488GTB. Once I experienced a Ferrari the Porsche after awhile became a little boring. A GT3RS, Performante,
720S now those are comparable cars to the 488GTB. Their is a thread on the forum (Poll) that has exhausted the thoughts on the comparisons between those models. I cant wait to be back in a Ferrari they truly are amazing machines in soo many ways.

 

I agree before getting into my 458 spider I previously owned a 430 gated car then I moved up to a Scuderia then I decided to give the AMG SLS gullwing a try.... Great car incredible naturally aspirated engine which is a big thing for me and the look of the car as a whole is beautiful not to mention the doors are just the High Point for me. However after a while I truly missed Ferrari ownership there is truly something special about owning one of these cars and being part of the Ferrari family. I cannot imagine ever not owning a Ferrari again.

 

Of course we all agree on that !

 

Sweet ride man

Congratulations

Keep us updated on your adventures with her

Congrats! Beautiful car!

I got my car at Continental, too. I couldn’t find the car I wanted anywhere else. They were great to deal with, but I had it shipped on an enclosed transport.
