Yeah, you really went nuts with that "change" when you went w/ slate instead of silver I'm the same way though LOL.

I told my wife I happen to like Ferrari's grey on the F430 (dropping hints already LOL) and she said "no way!" not another grey car! My last 4 cars were silver/grey.

Very nice. I like the interior. The only thing that seems missing is a CF shift **** and parking break.

He made the smart choice not going with those options. They look a bit "cheap" and out of place. I know because I had them originally in mine before replacing them with the aluminum versions.

I think they look great and tie the whold CF package together. They also make the car a little faster. Kind of like new shoes.

I dont mind the carbon shifter but hand brake looks terrible. I have them coming but will likely swap out the brake if I can find something that suits the car. Might be tough and I will end up spending much more $$$ on the Alu one too.

Hi,

great looking car you have specced there. I really like the cocoa. Can you confirm the stitching is white or silver, just curious.

Enjoy the experience...again.

Rgds.

Exactly! The CF shifter looks great but the e-brake looks "cheap". They should have done a better job with that.
