    The first test for 488 will probably happen well after the production of the Speciale ends

    The California T - which was introduced in the same period - was first tested in May if I remember correctly.

    Starts to look better :) The back-end looks really low by the way.

    Those side vents still look ridiculous to me. They look so out of place. Bring back Pininfarina please! Hopefully it looks a lot better in person.

    The design of the 488 has become so bland and anonymous at certain angles, it suits these toned color shades far better as opposed to the more flashy alternatives.

    I'm warming much more to this than I was the initial pictures of the 458. Can't wait to see it in the flesh - even though I still have reservation about the pictures I've got a feeling this is going to be stunning face to face.

    The silver looks better than red. Has some lines that remind of the 458 trying to look like an F12. Not a bad thing that.

    The Grigio Ferro color really shows off the style details of the 488 design. Nice!!!
    What is the name of this Ferrari dealership? Lots and lots of art work on display to...
