Very nice - I really like the GTS. Are those the sports seats?

Thanks guys. It's just fantastic! Yes they are the carbon sports seats in black/yellow leather. They really show the interior off. Love the versatility of the GTS to albeit winter approaches!

Stunning, 355 is the prettiest modern Ferrari ever, no fuss or silly look at me LED lights, just a nice clean look.

If it's not too late, I'd go for the 2. I had a level 1 on my 2.7 355 and for me it wasn't loud enough before the valve opened, i was a little disappointed. Switched to level 2 last summer and am now v happy smile

I'm about 30 mins from Verdi (presume that's where you're having it fitted?) in Fulham if you want to come and hear mine

Hi Marco,

Too late it's already with the garage. I'm in love with the sound of the 1 when the valves do open and if it's a little quieter I might just get away with it on track days! I'm actually having it fitted at Autofficina, a little known place at the top of the A3 just inside the M25. I'll be there most of the day on Saturday if you're passing?
The great thing is that I will have to drive through the mile and a quarter Hindhead tunnel to get there and back!!!

fyi, they are all the same noise once the valve opens up.

If you think it's too quiet, let me know as I fancy swapping from a 2 down to a 1...
