    Good morning,

    This PISTA is currently for sale through Ferrari Austin TX. It's in the spec I like most (Argento/Blu America stripes).

    Price seems reasonable at $475k ask w/8k miles. Sticker is 403k. Next lowest priced PISTA at US Ferrari dealers is $499k.

    However, not sure I like the seat fabric look. What do you think about the blue inserts across the bottom of the seats? I know it's what I need to like, but would still like to hear some feedback. Could that be changed if I decided to?

    Anything else that stands out to you about this specific car one way or the other?

    thank you very much in advance for your time.

    Best,
    Brian

    I think it looks great and wouldn’t change them. It’s rare to see interesting combinations like that in a Ferrari. Good thing I’ve started my taxes for this year or I’d be tempted to go buy it :)

    absolutely love this spec. White with blue stripes and blue accents on the interior is perfection for me.

    that car looks awesome. I actually like the seat inserts in this case. I can't speak to the comfort of it though. If you like it, go for it, not too many white pistas.

    I like it. Keep in mind that if you see a well optioned, well priced car pop up, it may not be long until there is a deal pending on the car. Posting the listing on FChat makes the situation worse.

    meaning 403k is a low final original sticker price?

    what is more typical?

    I have only bought two Fcars, but when making many inquires I have always been told someone else is interested. If it’s meant to be she will be yours! Good luck!

    Actually have not seen that color combo interior in a Pista. I like it. It should wear well. I would stay away from white inserts. The ones I have seen showed wear early in their life.

    I think it looks great.
    I really like white and silver colours for Pistas as they show the lines really well.
    I have a bianco italia one, and I absolutely love it!!
    Also think the interior on this one works well.

    Looks like one of previous owners added very expensive carbon fiber wheels and engine bay covers which are not on the option list. Not sure if they are OEM or aftermarket.

    I think it's phenomenal- Most Pistas (by spec/design) are brash and "in your face" - this one is still a badass Pista but classy and channels a bit of a reto feel- Interior is perfect the way it is and makes the car IMHO.

    Hope the deal works out for you- Cheers :cool:

    As many others have mentioned, it looks like a very clean and classy spec.

    It's only missing a bunch of carbon on the exterior which is available as dealer installed accessories in the modern Ferrari world, so unless the 8k miles bothers you, the car seems like a great find.
