    Hello all
    Just brought home my 2014 458 Spider, after a few days of insurance stress. Raced home ahead of lightning and Tornado warnings. Wild day.

    Black on black, Tubi exhaust, carbon everywhere 4,500 miles. McLaren Boston was awesome.
    Thanks to this site, I got insurance figured out, decided on a bra and GTechniq ceramic on car and tires. Came out beautiful. Thanks all.

    Yes they removed tires and ceramic coated wheels. I'll post later on longevity.

    I used a Massachusetts agent at Eastern who got me approved through the state high risk pool (two boys with bad records hurt me) Commerce picked up the coverage. PM me if you want more details.
