    You know what!!! I was looking at this exact same interior and I saw somewhere that it could be an option on the F8, but I was not sure and I did not pursue it. I did not even ask. I regret it now that you are showing this to me. If this is possible, I would go for it. Looks classy and sport. Like an 812 interior.

    Alcantara on the upper dash (and upper door parts) is not possible on an F8, I was told. Alcantara is only permitted on non-airbag areas on non-VS vehicles... apparently due to a lack of homologation of these parts.

    Results from the test drive. Let’s start with the car appearance. The aero trick on the F8 really improves the aggressiveness and modern look of the vehicle. Does it have the timeless simple beauty of a 458 where the design language of this generation began, maybe not but definitely looks the part and is a beautiful vehicle. Sound was dramatically quieter than a FI exhaust on the 458 I rented. A good sound but tamer, slightly muffled and not in a bad way just different. Aggressive sound is not a critical feature, it just needs to sound like a Ferrari and it does. The car was immensely comfortable with the standard seats. After sitting in the Pista with Carbon Fiber Racing seats it diminished my desire for those. No doubt the look of the Racing Seats is phenomenal but the standard Daytona seats are better suited for the relaxed nature of the F8 Spider tooling around town and for weekend journeys with the wife. The engine responsiveness was phenomenal and it revved freely. The rev limiter comes up very fast as I was not programed yet to switch gears so quickly. There was really no material turbo lag that I could detect. The ride was very smooth and comfortable, suspension is A+. The car felt solid and better planted to the road then the 458. Steering feel was dramatically better than the 458. The F8 really is a tribute to all those v8 that came before. Exactly what I’m looking for in my first Ferrari.

    I still couldn't get used to front lights of F8. 458/488 was much better.

    I always assumed the body in white pic was your own actual chassis but these look very similar, right down to the lighting. Stock photo or precision engineering - anyone know?

    The first picture is a "one size fits all" picture. The second and third are your actual cars.

    Looks like you got the Carbon Wheels. Any concerns with them when driving around town or the freeway?
