    Well your 2004 MY dollars got you real carbon door panels instead of add on 'trim' there. Not really progress for various reasons; when it comes to the interior design details...

    The only cheap, hard plastic in the interior is the climate control panel, which has historically been inferior in appearance and quality. Otherwise, the quality of materials and design exudes good taste and superb workmanship.

    Nice insight feature. He should mention the FOB is somewhat of a pseudo... unlike most , you actually have to press the unlock button first before you can use the door handle to open the locked vehicle. His score 71 vs 72 vs the Pista. When you factor in , 80k price difference. You are paying for less weight, “less style” , perceived limited numbers, optional cool stripes. F8 is a better buy for a weekend drive. The start/ stop system is quite good, if you care to use it. “Like a limo” smooth. The MMI is dated , its biggest downside. Still think the F8 sinks the 488 mainly bec of the upgrade in style. It seems more responsive powerwise in the lower range as well. So far, driving around , it seems to get more looks than when i was driving the 488 when it first came out. Or i could be wrong. Tributo is a great looking F berlinetta.

    If anyone is looking to spec a F8, the blue is spectacular in the sun.

    I test drove this one a few weeks ago during the Ferrari Challenge event a few weeks ago.

    Mine is currently configured in Blu Elettrico, but given additional delays due to the shutdown, I’m thinking switching to Blu Corsa/black roof may be a bit quicker. Regardless, blue looks great on the F8.

    Warning. People crazy these times. Doing 65 then this superbike pulls alongside and does a wheelie. Pick up truck belches his smoker exhaust. What next...

    I was impressed actually. Doing a wheelie and maintaining it from 65 mph and accelerating onwards requires a lot of balls and skill.

    The one thing that I have noticed with the transition 458 > 488 > F8 is the dash design with reduction to manufacturing. Notice as the models have progressed the less stitching of leather parts. Look at the vents on the 458 then 488 none. Then look at the panels around the left and right controls were leather on the 488 and now coloured plastic on the F8.

    I dare say they worked on stream lining their manufacturing to increase production. Interesting also is the door handles on the F8 are the same on both sides.

    Pista carbon rims, or dark forged?

    Side pic would be nice to see.
