Let's spec the Pista

I see your points about the stripe. I just can’t see myself doing it. I like a clean look. I’m sure nothing about the aggressive swoops and curves of this fabulous car will get lost without the stripes. I’m just grateful they didn’t launch the F50 or Enzo (or many others) with stripes.

 

Just seen a couple of images on another thread where Pista looks really good without stripe !
Thought I had decided but not so sure now.

 

Can you share the link to the site?

 

In the region here, the shields were a 'free' option. I ordered the radio / speakers delete in my Speciale and love it like that.

 

Ferrari has a long history of using stripes on it's cars. This 1962 250 GTO was introduced with stripes featuring the tri-color look. Interestingly the shape of the front of the stripe followed the outline for the middle vent on the nose of the GTO. This front vent also set the width for the stripe on the car to. ->

No doubt. There really isn’t a right or wrong answer. It’s just personal taste.

 

I ended up with something quite similar when I was using the configurator at Geneva - except with black edges around the red

 

This looks really great! And with a few red highlights on the interior trim by way of stitching etc then interior and exterior will be perfectly complemented. Is the grey silverstone?

I never thought i would consider another Rosso car and have been consumed by greys, silvers and blacks for all my recent cars...however the Rosso launch car with stripes just looks so right to me....

Plenty of time to ponder on spec and of course see all the other combinations that will be shared on here in the coming months....UK cars not likely until mid/late 2019 and into 2020 is what we are being told so a long time to wait!!

received the official lists already two weeks ago. Maybe your dealer is working kind of slow.

 

That's true. Regarding the LF, I don't think I've seen one with a factory stripe, but I have seen them with factory "dream lines" which are these little pin stripes that follow the contours of the hood, they are a little bit like stripes. Everyone has their preferences. If the factory wanted all cars to have stripes, they'd enforce it. They allow you the choice for no stripes so that is fine. I think its purely your call. For me, it will be stripe all the way. Interestingly enough on the V12 LE cars, I would go no stripe if given the opportunity.

 

Looks beautiful- blue corsa is a lovely vibrant colour ... I specced my 812 electricco blue and I love it also ,has a different purplish tinge that pops in the sun.
I agree , photos do not do either colour justice ....

 

The next time I come across a pic I will send you the link. They are on f-chat. Blu Corsa is very pretty. I love blues. My favorite is Blu Elettrico, but, it is a very bold color. It would look absolutely fantastic on the Pista. However, I just love Rosso Corsa so much on the special edition cars.

 

I have never had that experience with Alcantara. However, I don't have all the experience in the world. But I do have some and so far no problems. That's quite a bit different from the "mouse hair" material they used to use on cars like the 550 Barchetta- THAT does become quite pale with exposure to sunlight.

 

I was thinking about doing something completely out of the box.....

-TDF Blue Exterior
-Silver Stripe
-Silver Calipers
-Silver Wheels
-Cioccolato (Chocolate) Full Alcantara Interior (including dash)
-Yellow Stitching
-Yellow Stripe on Seat in Leather
-Yellow Seatbelts
-Yellow Tach
-Yellow Calipers

Thoughts?! I know its different but i think the complete dark chocolate interior with the TDF Exterior....

I had a Scuderia with black alcantara interior and never had any issues with unusual wear and tear or color change. Looked and felt quite special and I wouldn't hesitate to get it again.

 

Going on four years in my 2014 Speciale with black alcantara and no issues also. Wearability just fine.

I haven’t. It seems rather resilient. It isn’t its durability that concerns me. I just don’t think it looks good. I don’t understand the appeal, particularly with cars at this level.
