    This is the interior I really wanted , but I ended up with non daytonas in black with some red stitching. I couldn't pass up the car though. 7k miles and drives like new.

    I posted about this. Long story short it can but the wheel will cost u close to 4k USED and the dealer will charge 15000 to update your ocmputer. It is not plug and play.
    As usual i tried to follow TTFORCE wisdom and i did not do it but was close :)
    reliability? Well if car was well maintained, and u have a warranty they are good aside some gremlins Im at 37k miles now and just the DCT was replaced by previous owner under warranty

    BrianL lowered his 14mm on stock spacers. His FF looks good.

    I went Capristo X-pipe with remote valves and Novitec back boxes. It’s epic. Stopped short of the Novitec cats as it’s just too much i think. Diamond seats and every carbon option possible. Makes it special but upset my bank manager....

    Your interior is gorgeous, especially with the red carpet and daytona seats. Mine is very boring.
    Do you have any sound clips of your exhaust setup?

    Wow, time to find some Ferrari technician friends. Do you know if later models (2014 and up) are more reliable than 2012-2013?

    I’ll defer to the pros , mine in 2000miles has been what I expected although my Testarossa seemed to
    Have been easier to fix;)

    Like what parts?
    2016 suffer from ptu also so no difference in reliability from 12 to 16

    Bluetooth, Radio, Evap Leak, Gas door, battery. PTU gear oil should be under maintenance. I may be wrong.

    If you install the Capristo valve controller, you get a fob like a key fob. This lets you either run the valves in stock mode, or fully open all the time at the push of a button. You can open the valves in all modes, not just Sport. The Capristo X pipe is a nice addition and will work with the controller and the stock rear boxes. The Capristo valve controller will also work with Capristo, Tubi and Novi boxes with valves. The Capristo valve controller does the exact same thing as the Novi switchtronic. Trust me when I say that Capristo is as high of a quality as Novi. As was pointed out, IPE can have fitment issues and the overall quality is just not on the same level. Not a fan of the IPE sound, as I find it unnatural and artificial. I actually think the Capristo is a nice and naturally sounding exhaust that really compliments the induction noise quite well.

    Start with the Capristo valve controller and the X pipe and see how you like it. Also keep in mind that if you use your FF with passengers in the back, don't go too crazy on the exhaust as the sound insulation is not the best in the rear of the FF.

    How much of a drop? You can get about 20mm on the stock springs, possibly 25.
