    Then... race is on! We all gotta be within reach of each other. One of our cars has got to be in front of each other.

    Congratulations on the Tributo, and future congratulations on the 812 and the Spider. My next could be the 812... We'll see... Have to make room in the house and I don't like getting rid of my cars. I get attached to them.

    Pretty soon, you will soon have a Ferrari dealership at home.

    Just a little behind. However, they may ship together. There is a status in which they put them in storage for shipping, so I think mine will be waiting for yours to ship together. So... hurry up!!! Where is yours going to?

    I ve ordered some exterior and quite a bit of interior carbon, which may or may not slow down the assembly work.
    But no special paint or exotic carbon, though.
    ( Car going to BHF Great dealership!)

    I don't think CF will slow down production. This should already be streamlined, because its is just placing the part, it doesn't require deviation of the process. Things that delay the process are special paint colors/layers, dual tone paint, added accessories/options (stripes, emblems, seat piping, multi color leathers, stitching) and out of book requested/authorized options.

    Keep us posted

    Like everyone or most, the decision making process was particularly grueling.

    The possibilities and whims of ones personal imagination and ability of the F8 to look stunning In so many shades of paint and interior color, offer so many possibilities

    One either never gets it right or hits it on the head

    Best statement that embodies the truth of nearly (99.9999999999999999999999%) all Ferraris... I say nearly because you can always mess it up, like the wheels of the Wheels boutique red F8.

    Was a little tongue in cheek, but in all seriousness, I had a determined push for a triple layer verde, then some of the darker blu's, before the spec just clicked (defaulted maybe !?!?) with Rosso Corsa.

    I feel no shame, nor disappointment for my lack of adventure. Maybe everyones first Ferrari does need to be red :D

    I certainly broke that mold. Funny thing is that when my friend bought his first Ferrari (Cal T) I told him it needed to be red and no other. I grilled him on that. He didn't want to and I insisted. He ended up with Blu Tour de France, I think. Now, I get mine and what did I do... Bianco Italia. But I still love the red... I guess now I understand...

    Nevertheless, it is funny. I guess I didn't dwell on it enough to revert to Red. It seems you went back and forth for too long...

    I certainly did. My factory Atelier renders were delayed from February to late March, then dealer closed until June. Mix in moving house from one side of Europe to the other amid CV ..... so yes, time for plenty of spec honing :eek:

    He indeed does and he is being hated!!!! However, it seems he is heading for storage to wait for the others to be done.

    Also my dealer has been known to be super delayed... I was expecting my picture today. But it didn't happen. I assume sometime this weekend.

    Congratulations! It is a beauty!

    No comments that someone left some debris on my driver side quarter panel- like a mask or something

    I hope yours are treated better than that!

    My dealer told me I was 70 that is finished or roadside testing the weekend before. Five days later I got the picture so I imagine your pictures are on the way!
    Yeah and about the res - I fussed and fussed. My Last red Ferrari was a 90 Mondial T in homage to one I grew up with. My son insisted on this one in red. I am going so far afield on my GTS and likely will push its timing back.


    The F8- I presume they’ll all be boat mates

    Last six ?
    Mine is 260866
