Default So She is here

In my recent trip to my local dealer to see when my new FF was about arrive and enjoying a nice expresso during the chat a transporter pulls up outside and out the back popped my new FF. Now the wait for the PDI and the registration......

Congratulations Paul

You followed the engine theme to perfection.

If there is an FF that I would consider this is the one - mirrors are a great touch!

What color is that - darker colors seem to fit the FF quite well.

Well done - enjoy!

Paul- Beautiful car and great color combination. The reds really add a nice touch. Interiors on the late Ferraris look great.

Long week!

I look forward to reading your driving impressions.

As far as the looks go - you hit it out of the park.

Super nice FF, love the dark wheels and the red mirror.

Can't help but see a nice silver spider behind

Thanks guys, for all the comments. She will replace the Panamera as my daily driver. The plan is to put at least 150k klm on her in the next three years so plenty to write about I guess over the coming months. Cheers Paul

I was lukewarm on this car when i first saw it. that's why i didn't post. But i have to say as i keep coming back to it i am starting to like it. I have a little bias against the ff itself that doesn't help.

A black 458 with red calipers is my favourite combo, you sure have taste in your decisions

And great picture.

Looks wise for me the FF does not really work..... but once driven it sort of negates the looks a little, very similar to the Panamera in that way.

Agree with that Paul. I've enjoyed many hours in the FF now, on both public roads and race tracks, and I am amazed at just how good a car the FF is...I much prefer it as a drivers tool to the 458, it has more soul. BTW, you did a great job on your specification combo, enjoy your newest toy!


Life never slows in paradise....it is just much more enjoyable!
