    Re: 488 GTB/GTS

    Looks strange without the stripe.

    Re: 488 GTB/GTS

    I'd say it looks great without it ! specially on the last pic where the glare on the paper makes it look like it's wearing gold wheels. That's definitely a spec I'd go for.

    I'm not a fan of stripes but the Speciale Models sans the stripes looks very strange especially in the flesh. Saw once a 458 Speciale without the stripe and for few seconds i thought it was a replica or smoothing. Also, it will cause issues when reselling the car

    Gold wheels look the best on the 430 Scuderia.

    But if you order blue with gold wheels, you should not go with yellow callipers. Smiley

    If one orders the stripe, why not start after the kink? That way that downward part coming out of the air vent doesn't disturb the appearance.

    Nonetheless, stunning car.

    Too bad it adds 200 pounds (McLaren carbon tub only requires 1/2 as much to have convertible)
