    Having had a rossa corsa california and currently having rossa scuderia 458 spider, I am getting a little bit bored of Red. But dont know what other colors would suit a 488. Dont wana get something that noone will ever buy again from me, but resale isnt my biggest concern. I just want a really nice car.

    I have a metalic yellow 650s so yellow isnt an option either..

    Any ideas? Any nice color photos of a 458 that could give some ideas...

    The 488 looks amazing in silver. How about one of those shades?

    How about a white like bianca italia? It is a layered white paint and looks amazing on the 458. You could add some carbon fiber accents with dark wheels and the contrast would look really nice. That with some red interior.

    Bianco Italia, Rubino Micalizzato or Rosso Fiorano will look stunning by themselves, and it will look amazing parked next to your yellow 650S as well. I know you say that you're a bit bored with red, but Fiorano is a stunning somewhat dark'ish and incredibly rich metallic colour that is very different from the bright non-metallic RC and RS. You should also have a look at Blu Elettrico.

    IMHO:

    Argento (silver) with a red interior.. OMG hotness... red or black calipers.

    Blu Tour de France (TDF) with some form cuoio interior.. yellow calipers... sporty elegance. Blue stitching...

    Gaillo Modena (yellow, if you like yellow) with black interior. Black calipers. I don't like yellow but this is how I'd do it if I did.

    Nero (Black) with nero interior, red calipers. all business.

    I love the dark grey/silver and also dark blue (pozzi) colors for the V12 cars but not for the V8s.... however, everyone has an opinion and everyone is right.

    Great ideas. Lately I'm Silverstone on red and black guts grigio corsa rims. I'd consider argento but it's too close to titanio.

    Are there any figures on how much of each color ferrari ended up producing of the 458?
