Great, what colour?

I love mine, but with the benefit of hindsight, specc’ing it wasn’t my finest hour… As my then girlfriend said, “I can see you like red…”. Pretty much unsaleable, I would say.

Wow, that is very red, looks good though. Mine is red on the outside very much Nero on the inside , with red stitching.

Hi,
Welcome to the "488 club". I have the OEM options price list as an excel spreadsheet if anyone is interested. I also have got a few things post purchase from the Ferrari options brochure. I have also fitted a number of the MyRicambi and Capristo carbon fibre options if anyone is interested.
Thanks! It would be interesting to see the options list and compare how the car was spec'd. Can you send it over?

i think mine looks very similar to this spec, the carbon bits and diamond wheels, yellow calipers etc., but it's a GTB not spider.

I'm not sure what the colour is, it doesn't say on the spec plate just "Extra Range"
so it's not Rosso Corsa? Looks really good whatever it is!

Yes, every option apart from carbon wheel inserts. Original invoice shows £98k's worth!

Crazy to spec it like that and then sell it with 3k miles!
Result! Practically brand new still!

what are you doing re: your front number plate, it doesn't appear to have one?
