    Hi,

    Welcome! Lovely colour combination! Mine is Argento Nürburgring / Rosso (Red Connolly VM.3171) and from 1995.

    How early is yours? USA or somewhere else? I believe 1995 was the first year in the US as the early cars (1992-1994) had no airbags.

    Cheers!

    ps. I can see your car also has the early no-airbag steering wheel, so it was not sold in USA when new. Mine was sold new in Japan and thus no airbag either. :)

    Very pretty. Looks like the interior is Cuoio. Your local dealer may be able to print a build sheet from MODIS for her that will show all the colors and options.

    Beautiful car !

    Thanks for posting.
    I like the original steering wheel without the airbag. I assume it was built as a Japanese market car.

    Enjoy.

    Hi Fennicus and all. Thanks for the warm messages. I am based in Japan and the car is indeed a Japan spec 1995 (May registered) car. AFAIK the Japan version's lights dip to the left as we drive on the left here (but enthusiasts here apparently see right hand drive Ferraris as less authentic...). The only other difference I know of is the cats are slightly different to Euro/US models.

    Terry, thanks very much for mentioning the leather colour, I was wondering about that. I will see if Cornes can help with the MODIS information.

    Welcome. Very nice looking car. Love the color combo. Every Ferrari has to have some red in it. The radio's placement looks different to me. Is that how it came from the factory?
