    Hello all,
    I just picked up my new to me, 2012 458 in Nero/Nero. Got it with 10,000 miles with a beautiful interior configuration. It's got cross stitched seats and headliner, CF driver zone, white rev counter, matching grey piping/seatbelts, yellow CCB's. Still in disbelief and awe when I stare at this car.

    Previous car was a Porsche 997 that I loved dearly and modified heavily, but looking forward to adding some personal touches to this car and enjoying it. Planning to eventually add Novitec springs, spacers and the Forza exhaust valve controller but before I do all I'm going to get the car ceramic coated and have the front end clear bra'd.

    Thank you gentleman! First accessories came in today. Car didnt come with factory charger so i ordered an upgraded CTEK unit with compatible ferrari plug for a fraction of the price of the basic ferrari model. Also ordered the Bovee 1000 to plug into the factory ipod connection so I can have bluetooth streaming audio

    Very beautiful!! I’m looking at 2010 with 10k mikes. Red /black interior. 1 year warranty from Ferrari. 180k. Sound fair to you guys ? Thanks. Good luck and congratulations. Your car is beautiful!!

    My guess is the price is a little high, seems like its a dealer and that's what happens, so its fair. Red/black is classic. 2010 is the first year of the 458 and theres nothing wrong with 10k miles, but just be aware the market place will view cars with over 10k miles as less desirable when you go to sell. I think its silly, but that's the reality of the market place. If you decide the price is fair I say just drive it as much as you want, and you're going to want to drive it. A LOT! :)

    Agreed. The mileage issue is a bit comical but it is what it is. 175k with out the 1 year warranty 180k with. I’m holding out for 170k. I Think that would be a good deal. Thanks again !

    Thank you Kirk! My 997 was also black, any tips on maintaining your Nero finish?

    Just tried it tonight and I am very impressed. What a great little gadget for less than 100 bucks!

    Yes, I had my 458 spider color corrected and completely wrapped with clear bra. I just did the same with my Nero Daytona 488 spider. This way you will never get paint swirls and it’s so easy to wipe down. Best , Kirk.
