    That 458 Spider looks phenomenal with the full chocolate leather interior. I bet it's rarer than rare, too, in Grigio Ingrid.

    Grigio Ingrid has always proven to be an elegant color, no matter the model on which it's liveried. To swathe such an animalistic, precision instrument in a classy color is a timeless contrast. It's a color that will never go away, it's too beautiful.

    I love the color. Especially in combo with Brown interior. But I dont think I would order it myself. :D

    I have a 360 coupe that I ordered in Grigio Ingrid. It is a late 04 model, I think I might very well be the last 360 made in the color, as I haven't heard or seen of any after my serial number.

    I ordered it with Sabbia interior with black piping and Daytona seat straps. Black carpet.

    I love the look of it. After having several red Ferrari's, it is nice to have something low key.

    With the smoothness of the 360 body design, I think it looks awesome, however, with the more creased lines of the 430 and then the 458, I don't know how it would look. If you have never seen Ingrid in person, you can't understand it. I have yet to find ANY picture that represents real life.

    if your stealing it, buy it! Don't listen to the hype they put with some of these colors and rarity, cause rarity will be the buyers lining up to buy the car when you decide to sell!

    I saw this car at WWOC about a month ago before it was posted for sale. It caught my eye because it was a 6 speed manual and not F1. IMHO I am not a fan of the exterior color at all, and I would hope that WWOC purchased the car at a discount because of the color and will be able to pass the discount along to someone who likes the color. FWIW, I bought my F430 from them and they were great - very professional and the buying experience pleasant.

    I've communicated via email and phone a few times with a sales guy there, and its been 2 days since my last email and still no response. I could easily go drive down there and write a check for the car, but it seems like the sales guy has more important clients to tend to. The guy claimed he will sell it to me "certified" too, although I am not sure how they plan to sell me a 13 year old certified Ferrari.... I imagine what they are actually going to do is give me some aftermarket warranty with it, which is pretty dishonest. They also are not offering the car to me for much less than their asking price, granted this is one of their cheapest cars, but so far I am very underwhelmed with them.

    Anyways, this thread is really about the color, and not my experience with WWOC.

    I honestly really love the exterior color scheme. But the interior... meh... could be better.

    Who are you working with over there? I worked with Gary on my purchase and he was great.

    I personally choice to negotiate the price down in lieu of the certified warranty. The certified warranty IIRC is only only for 1 year / unlimited mileage - not worth the premium IMHO.

    Im in the 'nice colour but only on GTs' fraction. Looks very out of place on a 360. LOVE it on the 612.

    Very sharp looking. Yours?

    Have any pics of the 488S to share? It seems to me - hard to tell from pics - that GI has become more "golden" in the latest F-cars. Having owned 2 separated by I am guessing about 15 years, would that be your estimation? Or, is it same now as it was back when you owned the 360?

    Maybe I'm getting soft now that I hit 40, but I personally love the classiness of Grigio Ingrid. My love affair with strong, bold colors have seemed to wane over the past few years.

    I agree. There's a GI Porto @ F of Denver and the interior pics do not do it justice IMO.
    Out in the sun, where the light catches the metal flakes, it just sparkles...T
