    Hi everyone. Enjoying being on FChat.
    Sold my 2015 Porsche GT3, and bought a certified, one owner 2010 458 a couple months ago. Car had 4500 miles when i bought it. Just got it back after a full paint correction, lowered with Novitec's and my custom AlphaOne Wheels installed. Love this car. Big thank you to Ultimate Auto Orlando and Ferrari Central Florida for the great service.
    Enjoy the pics. Interior is not everyones taste but i love the combo.

    Yeah i did. You probably dodged a bullet to be honest. I went to Algar, test drove, all good. Day of delivery in Florida it came off the truck making a really odd gearbox noise. Took it straight to Ferrari CF, as per Algars request and needed a full gearbox and diff replacement. Luckily i had powertrain warranty so no cost to me, other than 7 weeks at the dealership after one day of ownership. The least i say about my Algar experience the better. Glad i had good people down here to get me back on the road again, and now my car has a brand new gearbox and diff so thats a positive.

    Congratulations, Ryan. Your car is beautiful. Love the interior, too. I'm considering an Iroko or Tera Bruciata interior with Bianco avus for my 488.

    Couldn't agree more about Dave. Extremely professional through a frustrating gbox swap and more complications during my spring change. Considering i didn't buy the car from them, i was treated like i was a long term customer. Its been my first experience with Ferrari Central Florida and really happy so far.

    Zero rubbing actually. Its pretty low but i do have the front lift kit so thats saved me a few times. Too early to tell if ill keep it this low but its an easy change if i want to raise a little
