    I find that Pista is beautiful in yellow, I like it. I'm almost determined to configure it like this.

    ciao a tutti

    I have to agree that a couple of the renderings with yellow are awesome!

    I think Giallo is one of the best best colours on 488 GTB so am not surprised that it suits the Pista.
    Not sure I will be that brave though !

    I think I have hopefully narrowed it down to either a red scud/Corsa or giallo/triplo giallo. 95% on CF wheels. Most carbon in/out. Definitely stripes. Very excited. Finishing touches in atelier.

    A naive question but practical one: stripes are painted on top of the base color then a clear coat is applied on everything meaning that you don't feel the transition between the base color and the stripe. Looks and feels nicer than add on stickers but what happens when you need to repaint the bumper or bonnet ? Any Ferrari dealer paint shop can do it ? Do they send the stuff back to Maranello ? Track days and spirited drives on twisted roads will generate stone chips or terrible rubber marks and will ultimately require a paint job. Films to protect are not for everyone...I am interested by the real life experience of Speciale owners on that aspect. Garage queens excepted.

    If I get an allocation I’ll go without stripes.

    You do not feel a transition between stripes and rest of the car. Dealer *could* paint on on it great expense but competent ones can repair the chips in a stripe. I clear bra all stripes on all cars as to not deal with rock chips.

    We still do not have a configurator so if anyone has additional pics of the Pista in different colors from a config please post! Especially in Scud Red or Triple Giallo
