    Like last fall I had to post this up here. Again this is where I post, know a lot of you guys from being in the 458 and now the 488 I figured I would keep you posted.

    I spent a lot of time on this specification and really racked my brain trying to get it just right. After some agonizing, a lot of time and energy it is just about there. I fly Thursday to take a look at my 675LT on the production line. I anticipate delivery to be mid-end of March here in Germany. I am most excited to hear the intake sound humming through the cabin that lead from carbon intake on the roof scoop overhead and into the engine!

    I hate to admit this but my 488GTB is also going to be delivered in early-mid march and there is a very slight chance that it is being very very slightly overshadowed by the LT. I am quite excited for the 488 non the less and cannot wait to get it in the garage as well!


    Here are some renderings that I had done of the car. If its dark in these photos, its matt carbon.

    Let me know what you think!

    Brands Hatch, spring 1968 ... I was there when Bruce won the Race of Champions for his 1st F-1 victory (albeit non-championship) in a car bearing his own name. McLaren orange, it was! So your color choice certainly resonates with me! Enjoy it in good health!

    It's going to be a tough act to follow do any manufacturer. The 488 "speciale" will really need to step up its game. Excited to see how it goes.
