"The busier your appendages are, the more engaging the car becomes"... I trust you were referring to arms and legs rather than anything else :lol:

Love the look of the Scuds - much more of an aggressive edge over a standard 430 IMO (sorry Ian :? )

Correct on the arms and legs.

There's something very odd/unnatural with the way your site scrolls.

Am I the only one who's noticed this?

It seems to leap up/down in a very strange manner.

The most surprising fact - Ferrari still on 16 constructors championships. That’s one way to keep the badge in date!

Thanks. I passed this along to my tech guy.

:lol: Yep, they jinxed it.

Haven't been fortunate to drive any of the special edition Ferraris yet, but I agree with you both on preferring Spiders ordinarily, but not for the special edition versions. Seems contrary to the brief.

Having loved the drives I've had in the 488, I'm pretty sure the 488 Pista would be my perfect car, bar the lack of a boot ("frunk"? :D ) making it almost unusable.

Of all the "special" editions I have been fortunate enough to drive, the only one where the spider works as well as the coupe is the McLaren 675LT which I put down to the carbon tub.

I can see how that would work. However the reason I prefer convertible Ferraris is for the immersive exposure to the noise, and I don't think the 675LT's engine would deliver the same drama.

My perfect 2 supercar combo right now would be the 488 Spider and the Huracan Performante coupe. What amazing cars.

Looks like they’ve made a 570LT (or maybe a 595LT) 😎
