    I just bought my first ferrari, a 2007 f1. I paid up a bit more color and options that I wanted (girgio titanio over cuoio with carbon ceramics). I've owned mostly owned wide body 993s but I think the 430 F1s are insane relative value and don't understand it. I have always thought the 430 spider was one of the most beautiful cars ever made and I'm excited to give my kids the bug.

    Congrats on a really nice car and welcome to the club! That’s Grigio Silverstone vs Grigio Titanio. The Grigio Titanio one on BAT was also a great spec.

    I used to use the DockLinQ pro adapter, but it wasn't very reliable. Sometimes worked flawlessly and I could control my iPhone with the Becker 6112, but sometimes I had to manually switch the radio from iPod to External mode to get any sound and then it might auto-switch back the next time I started the car. It was annoying so I actually switched to a Lightning cable adapter so I could play music and charge my phone without a hassle. Was quick to install and I left the Bluetooth stuff in place in case, just unplugged if I want to go back to stock. Having a charging cable connected to my radio is priceless since I do not have an ashtray, I have a CF cup holder and the accessory outlet that I could have used to charge my phone is occupied by a Kline Inconel button to control my exhaust valves. I guess eventually I'll switch the cable to a USBC when I get a new iPhone.
