Love the scud in rosso scuderia!
I guarantee it's your battery and I also guarantee your battery maintainer is not working properly. There are countless (I can't start my car)...
Picked the Scud over the 458 over a year ago. My preference over the 458 has only grown deeper. Will only add to, not replace the Scud.
Nice car. Only flaw that I could see was moderate "spiderwebbing" on the headlamp lenses.
It was a $$$ option on US 2008 scuds and standard on 2009 scuds. The cf LED steering wheel was standard on all scuds although a few have popped up...

Just measured my new battery with a voltmeter - measuring 11.9V with the engine off. In other words, the battery is fine. I also noticed no change...
I read somewhere that the OEM rebadged CTEK 3300 has a hard time charging Optima AGM batteries - this is unusual considering my '08 scud came with...
I recently replaced the battery in my scud with a new Optima 34R. When I hook up my factory battery tender to it, the "half battery" or "full...
Finitele is a troll that continually bumps up countless old Scud threads for no reason. I can't believe you guys are actually debating this.
