my local dealer in Austin has a Pista and a Speciale Aperta, and the Pista is $20k cheaper at $579,995. I accepted a few years ago that I just...
I have a 2016 Audi RS7, and I love it. One of my favorite cars I’ve owned ever. Put an APR tune on it two months after I bought it and didn’t look...
No doubt that it’s hard to beat the sound of a V12 at RPM! I loved my F12 for this reason, but once I bought my 458 spider I rarely wanted to get...
A lot of the price drop over the last 18 months is from the Pista and Pista spider getting delivered. I’ve been watching the Speciale Aperta for...
I think there are a few factors affecting the value of the 458's, one being sound. I drove the 458 and 488 back-to-back before I bought my 458...
So, as to not hijack the OP’s post, how ‘bout that $399k Pista? :) https://www.dupontregistry.com/autos/listing/2020/ferrari/488--pista/2214211
I agree that if you’re doing a compression test you also want to do a leak down. It will show how well the rings are dealing. Was the engine hot...
What setup do you have? I’ve been looking at getting one as well.
How many guys with any of these cars truly track them like they’re meant to be driven? I have a GT2 RS, but I have a ‘19 Corvette Grand Sport that...
Congrats! You did incredibly well on the trade of your 488 spider, and tax savings are definitely a plus, too. Certainly easier to justify when...
I’d pass on that car in a heartbeat. My buddy that owns a dealership in Austin was just offered an 812 with 430 miles on it for $100k back of...
Makes me want to take my F12 to Scottsdale in January! That’s insanity. I know my 458 spider is solid in its value, but that’s just nuts.
Here’s a few of my NART blue F12. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Not sure life gets much better than this! [ATTACH]
No way do I think the 458 will tank. I added a spider to my collection last July and couldn’t be happier. It’s always a blast to drive! I think...
I bought my F12 a year ago, and it was my first Ferrari. I then added a 458 Spider to the stable this past summer. To say they’re different is an...
Thanks for the kind words. I’m not a tech writer, but I’ve had to put similar presentations together before. Very interesting on the plastic...
The last step is to remove the third brake light. It’s held in by four nuts/bolts and a plastic push pin on each end. Remove the four nuts first....
Next step is to remove the center trim piece. Each side of the center piece is held in with two Allen head bolts. Remove a total of four bolts,...
For the inner side panels, there’s a screw and a plastic insert towards the back on each side. Remove the screw and insert, and it will expose the...
