I'm sure Enzo would be rolling in his grave if he saw the quality that's coming out of the factory these days, but Ferrari never have been too keen on their fit and finish. Like Enzo once said long ago (can't remember exactly where I heard this...), "When you buy a Ferrari you buy the motor, the car is a gift." I think Ferrari are trying to pump out too many cars these days, which ultimately leads to quality sacrifices, but I can say that when they make the motors they are spot on... The machine itself is a marvel, but they just haven't got the whole "external details" down yet. Oh well, that's why there's guys like me ... I make them look like they should.

Here's 2 videos of the inside and outside just in case some of you wanted a closer look. They're not the best quality, namely because they're on YouTube, but also because they were made with my dinky digital camera. Enjoy!

It's a fairly new wax on the market and I use it on just about all the Ferraris I detail. It's not "hard" to take off, but slightly more difficult to remove than the rest. Well worth the extra work though!
