    I am beginning to have more confidence that the rear could really make the car, as I had been hoping.

    Fingers crossed

    The joys of living near Maranello, yes? While the rest of the world waits around for pictures, you see the real deal!

    Any comments on the sound?

    Oh. I think Arhimede nailed the vents beside the tail lights. I think the air will still go in those scoops and out the back. We'll see pretty soon now.

    If you aren't interested in the thread discussions, maybe don't contribute rubbish that messes it up for those that are.

    Which proves that a 40 yr old 308 can keep up with it's big brother 488 VS in normal driving!

    Although 488 is a lil bit faster around Fiorano.o_O

    I was driving my 208 GTS turbo, a 1983 car. The fun thing is that I was driving the first turbocharged Ferrari street car ever and I was following the prototype of the last one

    My 208 turbo is quite noisy so I couldn't appreciate every detail of the car sound, but looked a bit more metallic than the 488 standard. My feeling was the biggest sound difference was that the engine looks faster in gaining revs. Unfortunately the prototype took the Pedemontana highway in east direction while I had to go west towards Sassuolo, so I followed the car just for very few seconds, but I was very close. I'm sorry but I was late so I turned left instead of following the car as I would have liked to do

    See above

    Ciao
