    Does Ferrari offer hardcopy (bound paper) workshop manuals for the 488 GTS/GTB?

    My understanding and actual experience talking with service manager over at a Ferrari dealer is the workshop manual(s) are only online and they pay a hefty annual premium to subscribe and receive updates (authorized shops can also pay even a bigger annual premium and have access as well).

    Physical manuals have been touted for sale (via a link or a CD or the like, you can find it on ebay), but they are excessively incomplete as the actual online manual access provides hyperlinks for the vast majority of the work so what your getting via the link or CD or the like is the very basics with no access or info from the hyperlinks and that's the real problem. What you find being sold when printed is somewhere in the range of 750 pages of info but once you go through the info all the in depth "real" info you would need is hyperlinked and therefore your not seeing any of that.

    What you will get is torque specs, very basic info but the real info will be in the hyperlinks which you will not have access to.

    Hope this helps clarify for you.
