Where are all the TDF 458’s???

It’s a sea of Rosso corsa and Nero Daytona. Where are the more interesting colours in the classifieds?

I’m after a 458 coupe or spider but would really like more choice on colour!

458 was released in a time of re-sale red but times have changed abs people’s taste in colour for Ferrari has become more varied, proof of this is with Pista with so much variation.

Fact is though red looks good but so does orange, yellow also look sensational and some of the blues and greens can work well too.

Problem is even yellow is rare on 458 so a colour like orange, blue or green is super rare.

Maybe just buy black and wrap or get sprayed colour you want.

Less than 3% of UK 458 Italias and 458 Spiders are blue whereas more than 50% of each are red.

wraps have become so good now that even myself have been fooled into thinking a wrapped car was painted

This and Litchfield liquid sprays are like £5000 which on a 150k car is not a huge sum on money.

Here’s one of the 3% ??
Paid a lot more than 150k though.

Because the blue ones are keepers?

Why, are you a car paint specialist?

[GTSJOE]

Someone had good taste when they ordered my car… Only Pozzi blue & Cuoio 458 in the UK

Interesting thoughts. What would it cost, ish, to wrap a 458 and any advice about choosing a supplier?

Better to buy the car in the correct colour to begin with.

But a wrap will cost anywhere between £1500 - £10,000 dependent on who you go to and which wrap material you use.
Wraps and PPF game are huge margin generators for many companies and as such it pays to shop around and some grossly overcharge.
