    Only your dealer can access the stage/status of your car in modis. The ferrari owners portal will have nothing at all about where in the production cycle your car is sitting. As others have mentioned, the production photos are never real time. usually they show up right before or after the car shows up at the port or dealer.

    True. I saw your post and checked my email
    And there it was. My dealer told me I’m at Status 60 which means car is complete so pictures are obviously delayed. It should go into testing Monday and on the boat soon after if it is t already there. You will obviously get yours much faster as shipping won’t take long. Glad to be on this journey with you! Congrats!!

    Likewise !
    So you know now when this one boat leaves that they use once a year. :)
    Mine, as far as my Dealer told me should get here in about 4 weeks. He says they have one truck they use once in a while to get some cars to Germany :) . Dont know if I can wait that long. But we are going into the winter season which means no drivin on salty roads anyways.

    Driving season here is year round. 4 weeks for you probably means 8 weeks for me! Looking forward to it.

    Autobahn is epic! I go to Germany regularly- Heidelberg area and have had a chance to drive on it. It’s amazing!

    Finally..

    Notice the difference (2nd red picture) in the front fender area for mine than in previous pictures.... hand painted shields vs. normal that have indented fenders for the metal ones. I still think the gray picture is a "stock" one they send to everyone lol.

    Yes I have had the undercoat pictures with shield recesses when I have ordered painted shields - such negative PR !

    I do believe the pics are all the same, the car behind it appears to be the same as well which is a giveaway.

    Just got this in this morning. White speed lines on wheel. Correct stripe colors and interior white stripe, hand painted shields. Looks like they got the spec correct! Now just another 2 months....

    edit: stupid forum keeps saying “security error” and won’t let me upload the final factory shot.

    Thank you! After seeing all these beautiful Pistas over the past months I was second guessing myself but am really pleased with the final product.
