    Good question. Unfortunately, the online configurator is trash and unlike with the 812, Ferrari has not released the normal 70+ page order guide that provides the necessary details. My Atelier appointment is December 6th so I hope to get more clarity then.

    Steep pricing but the right color makes such a difference. Maybe the dealer will negotiate a bit given how things are trending. J/K., no chance.

    I have a red 308. All my f cars have been grey or black w the exception of my Roma. My wife had Rosso maranello, mugello and portofino on her ff, portofino and portofino m. She has the portofino m now and had a Roma blu PS coming in the next few months but both of us having matching may be a bit much. It will be used heavily so the green or white will be more under the radar.

    Any thoughts on tires? I prefer Michelin over Pirelli, but did not specify on this car because I know nothing about the Goodyear tire.

    curious to hear opinions.

    Good question. I always forget to spec this to Michelin. What are the options

    I specified the Michelin - I want to try PS5s because this is one of the launch cars for the tire. The new Goodyears didn't sound that inspiring from the little that the tire options were talked about in the first drive impressions.

    Same here.
    Are the Goodyears run flat tires?

    I'd like to spec a more durable and reliable battery than the FIAMM "little box of
    garbage".

    I am considering having the battery replaced before it goes for correction and PPF! :)

    Excellent spec, you could think about taking out some Black-Yellow Contrast at the wheels.
    Silver wheels or dark center caps / black brake calipers might work well imho.

    I'd get rid of all the yellow in the interior + calipers. It's like mustard on a wagyu tenderloin. Also bronze/silver/grey wheels over black.

    yes most of them, I didn't like it on the mirror.
    And i don't have it on the flaps (not sure if this was even possible)

    But the black panel at the front is carbon.
