I happen to think the spiders lines are better than the coupes lines; which is completely opposite how i feel about nearly ever other coupe/spyder car..

r8: coupe > spyder
430: coupe > spyder
640: coupe > spyder
560 coupe > spyder.

the list goes on... but the 458.. spyder > coupe.

Can't say I'd spec mine the same way, but still one hell of a car. Congrats

 

sun is huge out, but still doing the pre-delivery inspection and waiting on some software programing from italy.
i can already imagine its gonna be awesome under the sun.
meanwhile i had to make do with the scud...

 

John, huge congrat on your second car of the year, or is it the third!? I too share your frustration, my car is at the dealer for nearly a month now, but heavy rain is preventing me from taking delivery of my 4.0.

The colour combo is controvertial, it does take a bit of time to get used to. But the car business is really moving on, you see more and more of these 'in you face' deco stickers designed by the manufacturers which I personally am not very fond of, we as owners are presented with endless interior options, hence the result of your car. Whether one likes it or not, I certainly think you derserve some appluad for being so brave and true to yourself, your spyder is truly one of a kind.

Lets hear it for John!!!

 

congrats. love the interior color. drive in good health

 

Can't wait till see your spec's...Wonder why didn't it come with Johns...

 

John you have a Scud , CGT , 458 Coupe, 458 Spyder, Mas GT and a 996 GT2? If I EVER here one more comment from you about how broke you are or what you cant afford. I am going to fly half way around the world and bitch slap you like a whore that didn't bring home her cash.

 

And u actually know me bro!
U know I could of ostrich skinned or at least snake skinned that sh!t, but I didn't so I don't know what the fuss is about. To me, I spend ALL my time in the car, I don't spend much time outside looking at it, so my interior needs to jump and grab me, see :

 

omg,..if it`s not a Hurricane your car will sustain it..
it`s not made out of sugar

absolute win my friend!

 

Imagine you've just taken delivery of your much anticipated 4.0, on the other side of the garage door the rain is pouring down like taking a piss after 10 pints, what do you do? Still take the 4.0 for a spin at 20 mph with virtually no visibility and admiring its cornering ability in the wet at the same time? What a great way to start a honeymoon.......

My perfect honeymoon would be taking a ride in my 4.0 in moderate weather so I can enjoy the sonata performed by the RSR engine, and taking some memorable shots of this beauty (whcih of course I would love to share with the team), and maximizing its racing ability under 4000rpm (for the first 1000km).....



And John,



on the other hand, the interior of your 458 coupe is a classic!!! one of the best interior of anycar out there... Nice touch!!!

 

I think it is time for a visit to the batcave.
