    My F8 Spider is currently on the wait list. Probably receive allocation in July? (Best Guess)

    I heard there was an option to “Unveil” your car for a viewing at the Marinello factory and a factory tour?

    I talked to my SA and the opportunity to pickup the car and drive around Italy is very Problematic.
    (You have to title the car in Italy, insure the car, have the title translated to English, etc.)

    Has anyone done the unveiling? I believe the factory is closed to tours from COVID?

    Any info on when the factory will reopen?

    Can you fix it for me… I will be in Bologna for a week at end of May and am told the factory is closed even for customers. It’s a shame to be so close to the home of Ferrari but not to be able to get through the gate…

    Misspelling Maranello is a cardinal offense, your order is pushed back to 2032 and THAT is not a typo:D

    I'm also hoping factory tours start up again. I'll be in Italy next summer so fingers crossed for then!

    I did Maserati factory visits numerous times, Lambo three times but Ferrari just once in May of 1999. You have to apply via your local dealer in your home country and be a Ferrari owner, VIP or media. The dealer then contacts the importer who contacts the factory department in charge of tours. You have to announce the exact number of people in your party and you cannot add anyone after that. At the time there was an age limit which I can't recall, 16 maybe.

    This was the M.O. back then anyway.

    Local SA stated factory tours will not happen until after August the earliest. Was hoping to see some of the factory in June, so will have to come back.

    They don't want anyone seeing the jewel in Ferrari's crown, the Purosuv or what ever the hell it is.
