    Hello, I have been a Porsche guy all my life mostly 911 GT models along with some Lotus Exige track cars and some Corvettes. I use to be big into tracking cars but now in my retirement my sports car are more a cars and coffee and few spirited Arizona mountain drives. I actually really enjoy washing and detailing my own cars. My current car is a mint 991.2 GT3

    So I am thinking about trading in my GT3 on a 488 GTB which is my budget with 2 year Ferrari warranty

    Looking for advice on any things to look out for and what factory options to look to have on a 2018-2019 488 GTB

    I have watched and googled a number of sites that seem to confirm the 488 GTB model has a pretty good reliable history?

    Best advice: spend a long time reading in the 488 section where there's a huge amount of existing knowledge
