    Anyone know if there’s such a thing as a purple 488? Or, was Viola Hong Kong introduced with the Pista?

    Love the 488. Love Viola Hong Kong. Would be a dream to find a purple 488 someday.

    And yeah, I’ve seen the purple F8 for sale. Drool worthy.

    I went to see and drive that 2022 Viola F8 spider that is currently for sale as it's always been my dream color for a Ferrari--- BUT once I got there and saw it in person, I realized I could not buy it as it is just WAY too bling!!! Especially with all the yellow interior accents etc... Just was too loud and look at me type thing. But at least I got it out of my system. Plus it is the absolute most expensive F8 spider in the world being tailor made... soon realized it wasn't for me.

    Heh, yeah, I can see that. Not a fan of those painted shields either. Most expensive? Perhaps, but I have to imagine this one is even more.

    Viola HK was introduced with the Pista as far as I know.

    Pretty much why I love my F8 Tributo, it's a Pista with out the price basically... same engine, same transmission, same brake, same chassis, same suspension...although I wonder in my mind if the coilers are tuned the same or changed on the F8. I know my F8 corners flatter than my 488GTB did until I swapped over to Novitec springs on the 488.

    Anyway yeah the F8 is a heck of a good buy these days

    Not looking to replace it with another car. Just getting older, bored with a lot of things anymore.
