    In seemed like eternity, but my 458 has finally arrived! All I can say is the car is absolutely stunning and must be seen in person. I have always loved the 430's, however when the two cars are side by side, the 430 looks outdated. The car is currently at R&H Collectibles waiting for the clear bra, wrapping of the roof in gloss black, and tinting ofnthe side windows. Can't wait for the weather to break!

    My white one comes in April/May. Share some pics when you get the roof wrapped. Wrapping in the Bay area by Sam's signs is around 6-7 hundred, just for a reference. I may wrap the sill, but for now, like you, ordered white like the rest of car. Thanks for the photos, reminded me what I'm waiting for. (had a '10 metallic black)

    Nice wheels! I ordered those on my car and don't get to see many of them. My car is due in about 3-4 weeks. I saw them first at the factory and they were a brand new option as of last September, IIRC.

    Great color choice... interior looks great!

    VERY NICE! Is the interior charcoal or black. Definitely post pics after the wrap. I understand the look is very realistic and beats the 12k for the 2 tone option. I am planning white over red right now.

    Congratulations!!! Again, welcome to the club. White is definitely the hot color these days and with reason... it looks fantastic. Really shows off the muscular lines.

    Enjoy!
