    There is something about them I don't like... I just can't pinpoint it?

    why i would never go with same body color caliper or a black roof. First black roof will preclude adding full length stripes in case u want to give it a go. Red on red caliper gives me color fatigue, its harder to emphasize the caliper shape and form( which is the point for painted calipers anyway). Black is better than red red.But to each to his/her own.

    can some one share why they chose a black roof on the F8 coupe. What is the aesthetic point for their decision? (sorry.. "it looks cool" reason not descriptive enough).

    I like the “Fighter Jet” look of the black roof. Too much red without it.

    You want a logical objective reason? There isn't one. I just happen to like it. Just like some people like a Pista over an F8. I like an F8 with two tones. I don't have a two tone color car (except the C300 I bought my son, but that is his). It is different and I just like it. All personal emotion and liking. Otherwise, why would anybody pay 12k for the option?

    Don't touch the wheels, they look great.

    Add Hula Girl to dashboard.

    Then just drive really fast and smile.

    I may be wrong, but I think he is advertising or recommending them, not selling them. Love the tricolore stripe underlining F8 Tributo The rest not for me.

    They are being sold due to the fact that my F8 has been sold.

    Was waiting for my confirmed allocation of the 765LT. Once I received it, I sold the F8. Miss it and on the way to Ferrari to return the F8, I was sad to see it go.

    I will admit that the knocking sound that I experienced when coming to a stop and then subsequently accelerating, did get on my nerves.

    Got back exactly what I paid to the penny.

    Currently, F8s are going over asking.

    Production build for the 765 is Feb/March with delivery slated for end of April. Do not have any other Ferraris.

    If we all liked the same thing, it would be a boring world. Nice to see different specs....

    That is quite a surprise to me... You had an F8? I thought you were a Pista guy.
