    After a long wait I finally took delivery of my 296 GTB. This was a bit of a dilemma as I've been watching used car prices and can see how owning this car from new is going to mean a six figure depreciation loss, but it is what it is.

    I went with Nero Daytona and a red and black interior; similar spec to my F8, but more Alcantara on the interior. For the carbon fiber, I went matte on the interior, and no exterior carbon: I plan on going aftermarket for that (still trying to decide on a supplier, probably Ricambi).

    Thrilled with how it turned out, and after putting 1000 miles on it my first weekend of ownership, I can definitely see what the reviews are talking about: what a machine. It truly is one of the best cars on sale today.

    Congrats - nero Daytona is difficult to keep clean, but when it is, it's really nice and classy.
