    I must say, if you were to describe that interior to me, I'd be horrified.
    But, in pictures, ME LIKEY!

    I think Giallo really suits the TDF.

    Absolutely, that's how I learned to recognized them.

    Scuro is a little darker than medio, it looks a little like Army Green. Like an Olive sometimes.

    Medio is lighter and has an hint of Grey/blue.


    In french we have two names for those colors.

    Scuro is called "Vert Kaki" = Kaki Green

    Medio is "Gris-Bleu" = Grey-Blue

    Curious if the side carbon aero bridge can be in coloured carbon or they'll only do black carbon?

    Thanks - for some reason I thought Ferrari would only do it in black.

    I clearly remember someone here saying after the presentation that exterior parts will only be done in black...

    I was at Pebble Beach last August when they unveiled the tdf and the only steadfast point Ferrari made was that the upper dashboard carbon fiber would only be done in a matte finish.

    Which makes a lot of sense. A gloss cf upper dashboard is a reflection nightmare in your windshield. And so is light stitching / colors.

    Exactly.

    I can add that 'Scuro' means 'dark' but this colour is not very dark, actually just a little darker than Medio. In direct sunlight many confuse it with Medio because think it's too bright to be Scuro, but if attention is payed to the green hue, it's not very difficult to get it right. Of course, Grigio Medio under sunlight becomes pretty bright, more than you'd think of a "medium" grey.

    I agree, it sounds like a total car crash, but when you see the pics, even though not for me, it works because this car is somehow so extreme you can get away with anything and it just takes it. In the UK I would be laughed at with such a spec but in the sun of the US it looks great and very individual, and very individual is what these cars are all about and to be celebrated. In short congratulations and as to your garage, truly wonderful.

    Can you explain the blue stripe on the floor? Is that a reflection from overhead or.......?

    Tim that's a kind of furrow in the floor, with a light in it.

    The garage belongs to Treynor
