    I find Rosso Fuoco a super "sexy" color. However, (and I am sorry for how this may sound) but I am a white car guy. Love the pearl/metallic whites and the contrast with black details. My only not white (because all my cars are white and I needed a car urgently and it wasn't available in white) is the CLS which is Obsidian black, Love black but it is so hard to maintain and everything and anything shows.

    Initially, I was on the fence between Fuji and Italia. I selected Italia from the very beginning but second guessed myself so many times. The thing that got me to chose what that as gorgeous as Fuji also is, it is less white, almost creamy looking. With Bianco Italia it was love at the first sight.

    As hard as it will be I will wait for the pic to share, come on, isn't it more fun this way :p Also I googled a Ferrari in this color and nothing came up, so there will not be a way to share the color.

    To the Ferrari Chat authorities... I humbly suggest that @soshry gets exiled for not playing nice in the sandbox! He thinks he's so special so he can play in his own sandbox.

    Okay, okay, here is a video of the color. For some reason the mica flake looks larger than it is in real life, must be how the camera reads the color.

    Its triple layer silver, SANU SILVER, and boy in person its REALLY a crazy silver, the depth of the mica flake looks like it goes on forever, the hot spots go straight white, I do believe it will show of the form of the car really well.

    LOL!!! It worked!

    I like the color... Not sure if there isn't a single Ferrari out there with it, but it may indeed be rare. Is it a Ferrari color? Is it a triple layer color? In the sun it will indeed show it's glamour.

    I haven't seen an F8 in that color but it may be out there. You are the first confirmed to my knowledge. It is a beautiful color. Triple layer paints have different dimensions, layers and depths to them. A little steep premium but they are amazing!

    Saw the 765 in the flesh today. Similar to the 720 but more aggressive. I liked it. Color of the demo car want my favorite but definitely a great looking car. Senna seats are awesome but not the easiest to get in and out of. Regardless- good luck on the new ride.

    Probably just Titanio. Pictures are way too altered.

    Agreed about the pics, too much saturation I guess...because It looks like it has red caps and calipers in the back (1st shot).

    Never heard of Grigio Sanu, but It looks amazing. Kinda like Argento Nür, but "on steroids".

    Sorry.... but no... This color should never be on any car, let alone in a Ferrari. Looks like the green from 1976 Toyota Corolla SR5. Absolutely no. Ever wonder why a dealer would never put a car in that color in their show room? Why would anybody? The car lost all lines.

    Your observations are not wrong, I don't disagree.

    just it has racing heritage, but then heritage is not always a good thing.... particularly with the Historic colour charge applied :eek:

    I'm certain many of us love that green and the combo is spectacular. Sorry if I ruined your day... :)
