Ferrari 488 Pista

Looks like it's white with CF wheels.

White probably because black wheels are only really palatable with white in a sort of colorless juxtaposition.

I may be wrong but this is probably first time Ferrari shows a car at a show with black wheels. Understandable with the CF wheels as they are a little bit plain looking so better to understate their design.

 

One is red and the another color will please the mayority of Fchat non-red fans.

 

Ferr9000, you are a trip! I have come to realize and commend your inside knowledge, much appreciated, but you are so sneaky in your delivery and makes me want more! Not fair! Thanks.......

is it so hard to understand! it was sarcasm! read my post on top on page 72
and yes, there are places. like my country

 

Black wheels:

 

Thanks for confirming there will be two of them.

 

Makes it sound more like grey/silver than white. A lot of discussions about those lately although not a big fan.

 

That's it the lucky country I cry when I see the figures the other parts of the world pay for a 488

 

I share your pain. In more good news - our incompetent state Government in their wisdom is adding another 2% stamp duty to cars over $100k from 1 July this year!

 

which state?

 

Yeah it's a joke but what can you do here? Basically we're screwed from every angle imaginable.

commiserations

 

Let's not get too political, but it's only fair that people who can afford to should pay in order to maintain some sort of social justice. I am with Gates on this one: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/bill-gates-tax-rich-people-pay-higher-cnn-trump-reform-a8217431.html

 

But for freedom tax should be based on income and / or global wealth, not on the way one spends his money.
In France we had a tax on global wealth, now it's limited to real estate and to get some money back new taxes are introduced for expensive cars - the result is that people loving cars are penalized, even if they are less rich than the ones previously paying the "high wealth" tax.

Back to topic, in addition to the 20% VAT the Pista will be subjected in France to a "pollution" tax of EUR 10500 and a "luxury car" tax of EUR 8000 (this last one being the newly introduced tax).

 

My God , buy the time you guys are done killing yourselves with taxes you’ll of paid 2x msrp! I don’t want to get too political either but the wealthy already pay the vast majority of taxes in the USA. Enough is enough !

 

Yes! Two!

Enough is never enough in Aus. It just keeps coming as they find new ways.

 

Black wheels =

 

Aholes Dont know if my 488 will arrive before that date as I ordered in June

Well ok im in Vic.

 

Your lucky on the luxury tax ! Mine will be $115,000 ! Our Vat is 10% but may is basically double that as its on the whole amount including the luxury tax. So we pay tax on tax.

 

Those are not black wheels, yet the optional carbon fiber rim

 

Exactly. Dont even get me started. In Australia the Top 3% already pay 30% of ALL tax collected. And the top 20% pay 70% (YES 70%) of all tax collected.
Oh and 40% of all workers (bludgers / time wasters etc etc) work for our 3 tiers of useless government. So its even worse if you factor out the morons in governent!!

Ok rant over - now where's my allocation

 

Come to Thailand or Singapore. Based on our taxes, in Bangkok, you end up paying 3.28 times the factory invoice. So My guess is that here a basically specced Pista will easily run over A$1 million. A simply specced Portofino will run you A$920k!!!

 

Our income tax rate is 37% what is yours
