    You should definetely get the ceramic brake.
    Color-wise, I'd go with a red exterior, black leather and yellow stitching, black painted wheels and yellow brake calipers. I saw a Gallardo done this way in St.Tropez, it looked great.
    In my opinion, red is the only exterior color to go in a Ferrari with, maybe I'm crazy.



    RC,
    My favorite is red too. And my favorite deviated stitching and piping is the yellow on black leather. So I have an issue. I'd love to get red with yellow stitching but it doesn't look good together imo. I saw a car w/ this combo and I couldn't stop thinking of McDonalds.
    The black looks awesome with yellow piping/stitching but it loses a lot to red exterior. I like the way yellow ext. looks but I don't like it for my own car.
    I'm pretty sure I have my color combos finished.



    red exterior with black leather... and yellow stitching? uh. erm. but i generally don't get it what's so attractive about contrast stitching. i wouldn't buy e.g. shoes or a nappa leather jacket with contrast stichting either.

    Yeah, the red and yell mix makes me think of McD's/ketchup and mustard/LaJolla.....
    The deviated stitching in cars seems to primarily be a F innovation....JP Tod even offers driving shoes w/matching deviating stitching vs one's latest F
    But globalization is great....F has addicted some to the deviated stitching and extensive use of high-grade leather, such that now these buyers are ordering even utilitarian P's with stitching, more leather and less plastic content....and, to its credit, P seems to have popularized painted wheels and colored belts to point where F is now seeing these options increasingly ordered....
    Similarly, the Brits have gotten some so addicted to colored linings on bespoke suit jackets that Italian tailors are increasingly asked to incorporate that touch into their suit jackets....
    To each his own....

    I asked dark rimes like Jean Todt's CS. In Italian they call them "cerchi bruniti".
    I ordered the paddles and the steering whell in carbon but it wasn't available the steering whell so I've got it later
