    I recently saw this paint job on a new F8. I have a 2013 458 Spider in titanio grigio now, but that yellow would be so tempting. It's one of the best looking finishes I've ever seen.

    Just stunning. It's the best yellow finish I have ever seen. Porsche Fayence yellow is also very nice to and of course I like Ferrari's standard Giallo as well.

    Because of the extreme demand for luxury goods right now, they're trading at 50K over what the market was at before Covid.

    What became of your Triplo Strato 458? Does a dealer have it?

    No, sold it to a local enthusiast. Not sure if he still has it. He did put black wheels on it.:eek:

    Triple Giallo is fantastic. Your F8 is just juicy! Is it metallic? Pearl?

    Triple Giallo

    FWIW, I spoke with a manager at Algar Ferrari about the Triple Giallo paint. He said it involves a fine metallic flake layer sandwiched between 2 layers of yellow paint, followed by a clear coat.

    Yes it is. Just about 47K loved miles. I adored that car and the only reason I let her go was because they had a stunning ‘19 Blu Abu Dhabi 488 spider there with 900 miles on it.

    I saw that car at Festivals of Speed a month back, it is stunning in person. Mine never looked that good, lol! The mileage wouldn't put me off as I know that particular car has been well looked after.

    As time marches on, these cars are going to accrue mileage, plain and simple.

    I agonized over finding a 'low mileage' car - for what? I'm at 30k and rising....better to drive and enjoy.

    I can say, with my hand to heart, that I loved that car and treated it very well. Yes, it was driven but never ever abused. Always warmed up and treated with respect. Never skipped on any maintenance or on anything it might need done. Had the stickies done, and replaced the PPF with new stuff and a 5-yr ceramic pro not long ago. Only problem it gave me was one wheel speed sensor and I replaced the gas struts for the engine lid. :)
