    I have read on another forum that the 488 is approx 2110cm with the mirrors folded in. My garage has a 2120 apature. Is the car going to fit it is that too tight. It's a double garage with 2 x doors so once in it' easy to get out the car.

    I would not be comfortable with a quarter inch each side......

    5 cm each side. Approximately 2” each side. Obviously, it can be done, but precision is paramount. No side mirrors to use, either. Tempting fate.

    To be honest I have no idea how much you save by folding the mirrors, Ferrari documentations mention widths of 195.2 cm (presumably without the mirrors) and 226.1 cm with the mirrors unfolded.
    You should look at a real car to see how much the mirrors still protrude from the body when folded.
