    I love the color combo with the stripe! I'm considering the same colors but in the reverse ie Argento Nurburging exterior with a blue stripe (same stripe configuration as yours) for my GTS.

    Would you mind sharing the name of the blue and silver you chose? They work great together!

    BTW, here's my spec with the stripe for my GTB expected to arrive in June

    Hopefully someone can shed some light on if the following is normal: My GTS was on the dealer’s order call mid February. April 2nd I was told it went to “no changes” status “00” but I thought no changes was 10R? I also don’t have a VIN yet. Is it normal to not have a VIN yet over 2 months past the order call date? The only thing I can think of is the car is Atelier with special 3/4 layer paint, non standard interior color, and painted shields that could delaying it. Thoughts?

    From the dealer.
    It’s a mini I-pad with a video rendering of my incoming car. Also some Ferrari video on it as well.

    MyFerrari shows an older build that I submitted prior to changing it with my dealer. My dealer says they submitted the new build. My status is still waitlist with no VIN. Should I be worried about the wrong build getting pushed through?

    The app is not reliable. Your dealer should be able to print out a Car Sales Order sheet which comes from the factory and lists the submitted build spec.

    Correct - Azzuro Santorini is the 296 GTS interior.

    Ferrari has so many new interior extracampionario leathers and alcantara colors but you really don’t know what’s available if you don’t inquire or go Atilier/Tailormade.

    I did Mandarin Antigua on our Portofino M

    And also have a Grigio Scuro alcantara with matte blue carbon fiber on my Pista.

    Looks like a Hermes interior on the Portofino M - very cool!

    The Grigio Scurro Alcantara is sublime. Really like the look of Azzurro Santorini. Almost chose it for the Roma Spider, but decided to go with a brighter color (Rosso Giudecca) similar to your Portofino M choice, which looks fantastic. Agree with @Dino_Argento, it could easily have a Hermes badge on there!

    Yes, it looks just like Hermes orange in person.

    Note there are some subtle differences I believe in some of the choices that look the same. For example Mandarin Antigua is pebbled in texture. They make you sign as an extracampionario selection. Whereas I believe the “orange” leather you can also order is smooth despite from a color perspective of them looking the same.

    The new building at Fiorano shows a lot of the leather choices:

    Received the first two pictures of my 296 GTS on the app the past two weeks. Today, my dealer said that the car has finished production and is being loaded on a ship. About two months away... Can't wait.

    What is the exterior color of your Pista? Looking for an accent color to go with my Blue TDF GTS. Interior is Beige Tradizione and originally had Santorini but after seeing your pics, I'm not sure it's the right color.

    To clairfiy, wondering about the seat backs and door panel leather color in those pics.

    The exterior color of my Pista is Blu Elettrico. The seat back and door panel are matte blue carbon fiber. It appears from the distance of the photo at a quick glance that it may be a blue leather but it is not.

    Blue TDF is darker and less vibrant than Blu Elettrico. Blu Corsa is lighter blue than Elettrico but would not match TDF. I believe I have seen a link online with a lot of the Ferrari exterior colors.

    However, your question seems to be around interior colors - if you are trying to match a Blu TDF exterior car, with an interior accent, I would stay away from Blu Santorini and any thing even lighter like Baby Blu - unless you are going for that non matching multiple shades of blue look. Your best bet is probably the navy blue interior option that has historically been available when inquiring about a blue interior.

    I saw a Roma with Blu Sterling this weekend. I need to lay it out next to the TDF chip, but that might be a good accent color. TBD. I'm headed into the dealership soon to have a look at samples again.

    My car just went 10R+VIN today. Anyone have rough estimates on how long to delivery from experience. Dealer said "release date" is 9/5/24 or whatever that means... also says "lower range: wk 28/2024" and "upper range: wk 41/2024" thoughts?
