thank you all for the kind words!
if i ordered the darker wheels, it would have been 3 weeks delay, so its going on wednesday to a pro paint shop to have the wheels darker, its a simple 2 days job. i am going to use the scuderia wheels color.
isuk, the satin vinyl black roof is a very simple job, it took 3 hours.
the car is amazing, really amazing, i am so impressed, and sooo easy to drive . tomorrow early morning we are going for a drive , i will post pics and drive impressions in the afternoon.
nick: the ferrari has the emotion and sound factor that no other car has. plus its psychologically easier to "rape" a nissan and go fast than to rape a 458 that cost six digits figures. no doubt that on the same road i will always be faster in the GTR, i still say for hardcore, pure violent, agressive and technical driving, the gtr is unbeatable, on the other hand, the 458 is a Ferrari, and the best one they ever made so far

I have no words, its simply one of the best looking Ferraris I have ever seen, and by far the best F458 I've seen !!!!...The roof combination its just PERFECT !!!
Dimitri you must be waking up with a smile !!! hehehe
Enjoy it, and looking forward to more amazing pics !!!!!!!!!!
dhayek, thanks for the interior pics especialy the speaker pic behind the seats. i notice you look like you have gone with all the alcantara options for the interior. does the rear parcel shelf below the speakers come in alcantara as standard, or is this another option? i haven't seen the option for alcantara behind the seats. also did you get the speakers coloured? thanks.
The alcantara rear shelf comes as part of option DAAL or DAAD which is the dual leather and alcantara interior (option DAAD being the Daytona seat version). The standard rear shelf finish is carpet.
Dimitri's car is Giallo Modena not the 3 layer pearl Giallo Tri Strato.
The car looks fantastic Dimitri and the satin black roof really gives it a totally different look

thanks isuk. this leads me to more questions sorry.
alcantara option codes are as follows.
ALBC:boot carpet
ALIC:interior carpet
ALIH: headliner
ARMC: armrest
UALZ: upper zone
with the 5 option codes that i have listed above, which ones are included in DAAL?
what does DAAL exactly include?
thanks
DAAL includes the headliner in alcantara. If you order DAAL you get the centre of the seats, centre strip of the doors and rear wall plus the headliner (only the square in the midle of the roof) in alcantara. If you want the A, B and C pillars in alcantara you have to order UALZ.
You can't order the alcantara carpet in conjunction with DAAL. I've no idea why not but the factory said no when I requested it. If a dealer ticks either the DAAL box or the ALIC box the other one will grey out on their MODIS screen and not allow them to tick it.
Here are the areas covered by DAAL shown in red.
thanks guys
isuk, my car has alcantara carpets and the alcantara door mid section and middle of seats and roof center.
when you order alcantara carpets the rear section under the rear bar is included, but needs lot of care
