Hi Everyone, Very new to the forum. Just placed an order for an F8 Spider and super excited to spec it next week. So many choices to make! Looking forward to joining the club guys! My first Ferrari Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Welcome aboard and great decision on choosing an F8. What lead time were you quoted? What options are you considering? YOLO
Bring on the questions bro! There are guys on here that are very knowledgeable and have a ton of experience.
Hi, I was quoted 12 months for the spider. As far as options I definitely want to add the carbon accents on most of the rear as well as interior. I am going to spec the car next week and finalize everything. I’m a bit torn on whether to do the styled seats, or sport seats. Like the diamond turned directional wheels as well as the titanium exhaust tips Also maybe a stupid question, but ventilated seats are not available? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Haha sounds good. My dealer notified me the quicker I lock in the spec and am fully set on it my order may be sped up as opposed to other orders without finalized specs. I appreciate it! Looking forward to learning more here about the car. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Ventilated seats are not available. Tons of info on Race Seats vs. Styled Seats. I wouldn't buy a car without Race Seats; others feel exactly opposite. Sit in both and decide for yourself.
Your dealer has all the actual seats up against a wall to sit in. It is a personal choice......your back, your seat selection. Your dealer can also give you the total list of options with an approximate cost for each. My dealer wrote these prices by hand on the options list. As it turned out, he was spot on for the final sticker. Looking at the list with dollars assigned to each will help you narrow it down very quickly. Also, the dealer will help you configure the car in the simulator at the dealership and can explain what is possible or not. Then will email you the final build spec and simulation of how the interior and exterior will look. Once they do that, you have as much time as you want to adjust it, add or subtract options etc. But your order really doesn't start until the deposit is made and the spec is submitted to Italy and they accept it.
I also placed an order for F8 spider two weeks ago. First time ferrari owner as well. I was quoted around 14months for the spider, but if there is no 2023, is there a possibility that my order won’t be fulfilled? my spec is very modest, RC exterior, beige racing seats, driver zone, front lift, forged wheels.
Ok, I’m down to one final detail which I need help on. After driving the styled electric seats they were fine, but I noticed the racing seats offered a tad more legroom for me as I am 6’2” and even though they are manually adjusted, they seemed even more comfy that the electronic seats? I need a bit of insight here on which path to choose. Not planning to track the car or honestly do more than 1 hour consistent driving in it. Thank you!
