    I am at stage 30 with my TDF. Let us know when you get your first picture from the production line. There is usually one at stage 30 just before painting while still in primer.

    Anxiously awaiting my first photo from Ferrari.

    Who is sending you the status numbers? The dealer or Ferrari themselves?

    So that one DOES look like a different picture - the black blocks underneath the body are opposite situated in my pic v. yours; My color is Rossa Corsa metallic as well :) Can't wait to get my proper, final picture.

    I have the grigio painted optional wheels, with red calipers.

    Today the final pic!!

    BUT - my config is not right; Wrong wheels and last minute Atelier changes did not get incorporated; Communicated with dealer & Atelier folks and they will keep the car to correct it.

    ARGH.

    Glad we caught it in time rather than it being shipped incorrectly.

    for those who just can't stand missing even a single build code, fearing their car has fallen into some F-abyss, "91" is at the port. after 91, things move rapidly

    As we all know, a couple weeks is a mere blink in the Ferrari time warp. Although, my spider was 90 Friday, 91 earlier today and remarkably 92 by the end of the day and perhaps 93 tomorrow, heading down the eastern seaboard. The West Coast is a different animal altogether, but then again, they would never name a car, "New York" or "Florida", not nearly as musically inspiring as "California." Or maybe it's just a consolation prize for the length of time you have to wait for a car to arrive.

    Just got my car today. I made it a point not to obsess and track the progress like I used to do with my other past cars ( build status code, name of the vessel, GPS coordinates of the ship, trucking company bring the car, etc...) and it was just as good, minus the wasted energy. The feeling when you first see her is all that matters. But that is just me.
