    Doesnt really seem to have any more drama or noise than a launch in my 812 GTS. I was hoping for a bit more interior sound honestly.

    The show car that was on display was painted. However, someone confirmed to me that you can get the painted "grey area" in full exposed carbon according to the PDF from Ferrari. I am getting the PDF from my dealer tomorrow and hopefully can share whether it is just painted or exposed carbon. I really hope it's exposed!

    Aside from the gear shift, sounds like a GTB during launch control. Which is certainly no bad thing.

    Depends on the recording equipment and compression that the file goes through....I've heard some clips that sound maybe 20-25% more dramatic, but only so much they can do. Even the challenge cars don't sound too loud.

    I am told it is over $1million a year to race in the series without including the cost of accidents (which will happen).

    Did my design today through Atelier, very fun experience, the only negative was the time was way too short, guess that’s how they get you to go back…and back and back again ;)

    Saw the launch spec and thought it was amazing, but now after today, I can say with certain I like mine even more!

    anyone who has experience with speccing the car, can I change the bottom part of the side mirror to match the color of the body paint? I forgot to ask for that during the session with them today….

    That is very similar to something I had in mind!

    very unique stripe design! the lighter color looks fantastic. can't decide whether to go dark or light, they both look great.

    Nothing feels like spending an hour trying to figure out the right white

    I saw some very interesting color today, such as this one white with green hue to it under reflection. But in the end thought it’d be hard to pair on this car, so didn’t go with it.

    Very cool, looks like Onda Marina with green instead of blue.

    wait which white did you choose? Italia? Fuji? Edit ah glossy balloon - what is the look of that one?

    A pearlescent white with a bit of warm tone to it, and very fine grains of flake in there, not sure if that’s common in pearlescent paints

    Very nice. Seems to be a popular stripe configuration with the Atelier/TM configurations.
