    As some of you may remember, I posted a somewhat long-winded comparison of the 458 and the GT some time ago. Following that, I posted a tragic tale of an exuberant RX-8 driver who was kind enough to modify the body lines of said 458 in a way that I found particularly displeasing.

    Well, the replacement arrived yesterday, and I'm happy to report that the body is still straight. I should share my unscientific observation that Ferrari has developed the car nicely and that this one has significantly better build quality and transmission and ride refinement than my previous car. Now, I need to go for a drive. Where did I put those GT keys... :)

    White 458s look so great.

    And yours looks as good as new.

    Would like to hear more on why you the transmission and ride refinement is better then your other 458.

    Congrats. And if you see another RX-8, pull over and wait 10 minutes until he's gone. :)
