No it is a new color Blu Mirabu.It looks even better in the outside light. That is the color I am going with.
Hi Nick,
what would be your option list ?
Patriek
Biege all leather interior with dark blue trim. Scuderia shields, yellow calipers and the Enzo wheels(Standard). Power Daytona seats with dark blue inserts. Not certain regarding the CC brakes(The car will not be tracked). The aluminum interior trim instead of the carbon fiber. Tire pressure monitor.CD changer.
Pretty basic but certainly functional.

Hi Nick,
good choice overall
. Make sure you have seen them in real, before ordering the Daytona seats. IMO they looked better in the 360 then they do in the 430. Absolutely right about the aluminium interior . CCM to be or not to be? Good question... 
Re: The truth about the F430...
Excellent choice Nick,
Just my opinion, but I think that Dark blue and beige interior is more classy than sporty and hence suits better the 575 and 612 but it'll look good on the 430 for sure.
Don't know why but I always thought you would go for a 575 Superamerica GTC, guess I was wrong.

Nice choices, Nick. I would only make one change - I'd rather have Silver than Yellow calipers to go with the Blue exterior (and it will better match the aluminum interior)

Fanch, excellent point regarding the color and sportiness. I felt this new color would be very much different than the typical Ferrari colors and should really look very good on this car.That is also why I did not want the Stradale wheels or sport seats. When I order my Spider I will go back to more of the traditional color scheme.
Grant, you also make a good point especially if the caliper for the standard brakes appear small in relation to the size of the wheel. The yellow will tend to enhance the smallnesss of the caliper. I thought the yellow would match very nicely with the yellow wheel insert and the yellow scuderia shield.

Rossi do you know if there is a difference between the Barchetta sport seats and the sport seats in the Stradale/360?
Some sport seat look more comfortable almost in between Daytona's and the race sport seatts on the Stradale.

Hi Farina,
I think yellow looks drop-dead gorgeous at the F430. Which rims did you like better? Standard or BBS CH?
BTW, do you think these cars have the same blue?
Well... i like both rims. At the blue car the BBS wheels looked great although i prefer the classic wheels. It's a very hard decision!
I can't say if these cars have the same blue... but the blue car had a colour i've never seen before. This might be the new ferrari blue.

Re: The truth about the F430...
Hmm, thinking about:
Exterior:
Black metallic
Yellow calipers
Shields
Carbon ceramic brakes
Standard Enzo style wheels
Pirelli tires (stickiest tires?)
Interior:
Leather headliner
Leather rear shelf and door sill moldings
Standard seats in leather w/black piping
Leather & carpet color: dark tan
Yellow tach
Carbon interior trim inserts
Top of dash black
Battery charger
Spare wheel

I'm not sure. Always thought they are the same but they are available in different sizes. For the F430 you can order leather sport seats in M or L, S will only be offered on special request, but you surely did know that.

Wow, looks very close to TdF blue to me, but there are several dark metallic blues at Ferrari that are very similar - Tour de France, LeMans, NART, and now Mirabu. And I thought the only new color for the 430 was to be Silverstone.
