Great Granturismo. Love that car.

I think your centre console in black surrounding leather looks better than in beige.

Definitely do not like it in red. But that's just me, of course.

Amazing how good the dealership configurator has become. But why, why, why, oh why, can't it print out the configuration???? Or even dump a JPG?

I'm gonna say beige for the centre console over black.

But I agree with Onno, red would be the 3rd place choice.

that's funny, i was scrolling down through the pics and didn't notice you changed from the maser to the ferrari. i was thinking the maser interior is really starting to look exactly like the ferrari!. I believe you can just do a print screen to grab a jpg of that.

I absolutely love the Gran Turismo. Had the chance to test drive a MC Stradale as well as the S and the handling is greatly improved. But it’s still far away from the handling of our Ferrari’s and I wouldn’t replace mine by a MC Stradale. Although, the Gran Turismo S is on my list

but a bit later as these cars depreciate really a lot. In terms of performance, I didn’t feel a great difference between the S and MC Stradale. It’s more the handling which is very different as the MC Stradale is 2.5cm lower with stiffer springs, has larger sway bars and the lighter CCM rotors. Shifting goes up to 60ms at full load and above 5000rpm (if I remember well) on both models. Both have also the greatest sound I can imagine!

As for the Italia, difficult to imagine anything else than Nero with red stiches but that’s a very personal taste

Although, the Gran Turismo S, I want the interior in Rosso.

John- I always liked white cars with red interiors ever since Chevrolet used them in their ads in the 60s, where there would be four white convertibles, from Malibu (or something similar) to Corvettes, with red interiors. Finally ordered a new white Corvette with red interior in 1991. Kept that car for almost 10 years, the longest I have ever owned a car.

Looks great on your car, too.
