    ups, that`s very, very close good job, now i have to wait as well to remember the differences, maybe the side sill it`s different and the rear is a bit more straight and front spoiler have some minor changes, thats it

    Your idea is rigth, the side airvents are more square, straight line down. In the middle of the hood is an add. airvent like the 550

    The roof has a airflow design like the 458 but more accented

    I lost a little bit my memory but i do my best

    ... Can't remember last time I posted here.
    By the way, i just passed in front of the Ferrari-Maserati dealer here in Nürnberg (Mertel Italo Cars).

    It looked like they were preparing an event, or that something took place there. The main showroom was full of chairs and there was a huge screen in the middle of the hall. A van parked outside with "Geheimnis Träger" written on it (something like " The transporter of secrets")....

    This evening, or most likely tomorrow evening, I'll go taking a look... Who knows what I might see...;)

    Thought is said 6cm or approx 2.3 inches for those who order quarterpounders rather than Royale with cheese :) :) in an earlier post on this thread.

    Interesting from what I can gather this car seems to evolve the 599 look at the front but revive the 550/575 look towards the rear. Was the buttressed rear on the 599 unpopular, I liked it but it did look slightly awkward from some angles?

    6 inches lower is what my dealer said who saw the car and he does not understand cm's as from the UK. Sounds a lot but not impossible.

    With respect car dealers generally are not very fact oriented and didn't yours suggest the first 458 spiders were going to arrive many months after UK customers were expecting their already spec'd cars - maybe johns930 is also one of his customers !

    Post 280 corroborates 60 mm and one or two posts here agree with 3.1 !

    dont think it is 4wd. If it was it would beat 2.8seconds time to 100km/h of Aventador.........
