    Ferrari Magic - Awestruck by the level of detail and replication of the model to my car - bianco avus, black interior, yellow calipers, dark alloy wheels, shields, even the special stitching and white stripes on the Goldrake racing seats. The lithograph is simply amazing in its artful design. And both items show the last six digits of the VIN. I couldn't be happier to be a part of this magical experience called Ferrari.

    Yes. The CF Box arrived about two months ago. I never thought I would actually get a replica model of my car. I figured that the chrome model that came with the CF box was being supplied instead of a replica. What a pleasant surprise!

    It came directly from Ferrari and was supplied in conjunction with the purchase of a new car.

    I don't know how long they have been doing it, but others on his forum have said the model given as a gift used to be 1/18, but now 1/43. Regardless, it's a nice touch and very detailed.

    Viperjoe,

    Killer spec. To die for. Congratulations!

    Love the fact that the lithograph has chassis no. engraved in it. 458s didn't come with that. I have the 458 lithograph but no chassis no., so very cool indeed.

    If you are anything like me, you care about these little "treats", because it's part of the charm of buying your brand new Ferrari. Very nice!

    Kind regards and congrats,

    Nuno.

    Thank you; I appreciate your positive comments. I am extremely pleased with the spec; even more so now that the rockers, front wing and air splitters have been wrapped. It's an amazing car in so many ways!

    Is the model you received with the CF box chrome? That was what I received with the CF box and I thought, well that's about as close to a replica as I'm going to get. But then, just last week I received the actual replica, which was accompanied by the lithograph. So if the answer to my question is yes, I expect that you too should receive a 1/43 replica model. As far as the lithograph is concerned, one can only hope!
