Is this a full conversion, or just a gentle strole with the Pope?
Will we be seeing (and hearing!) it at the track?
Congratulations, it's a beauty, I would if I could too!

The Pope just finished Blessing this car, and Ferrari BTW provides full warranty coverage at the track, confirmed by the FNA rep. who arrived to re-Bless my rig at AutoGallery, unlike other [!] brands. plan to be a the next one if schedule allows. just ordered 10 quarts of latex

i like the factory "quiet" sound, which is louder than GT3 but ok for quiet car lovers. i heard the christophs [sic??] exhaust, lots of guys put on on one CS and it is too LOUD.
shark mon -- did you gets the tips?????

CS
There is no sound like the CS at wide open throttle (and above 5k rpms); same goes for the sounds on upshifts and downshifts. Who needs a stereo when the engine noises are so glorious? I love my GT-2, but the CS overwhelms and enegerizes all senses.

Watt, where are you from and sorry that I don't know who your are but you have to be someone very importent to be able to get one in 3 days. Someone called you sir, are you english royalty or something to pull off 3 DAYS!!! You are the man, and the car is baffling even though not from the p-car camp.
That is also very cool ferarri covers the car at the track, does porsche do that?

I saw yesterday at the Ferrari Challenge about 6 Stradales 1 silver the rest were red.
Watt, I was wondering if you have tracked yours yet and if so what are your impressions of the ceramic brakes so far? Since Porsche has had so much controversy on thiers, Im curious about Ferrari's.

going next week, car has 550 today. there is good discussion of Ferrari "FCCB" on Fchat, check it out. no one tracking their CS's has had a problem but no one has more than 5k miles yet. and no one gives a f.k because FERRARI COVERS TRACK USE IN THE WARRANTY unlike other brands. i confirmed this with my FNA rep.
mine felt slick and needed bedding even tho' supposedly the factory bedded them, they bite even harder than pccb with no pedal effort. in terms of balance, the car has more brakes and handling than it does power [meaning torque].
