I think Lizard will be the new LO, meaning we'll see many, and even with that thought u am leaning towards that color. Remember, this is conf from a RY owner. If not Lizard then similar here with GT Silver. It is classic and stays that way for the long run. Every RS that I've seen in GTS has been amazing.

I see. I went to school with the kids of the wealthy so I'm too young to know. However, have eaten at proper restaurant in department store w/ Taiwanese billionaires.

GCC market and OPC - no clue what those mean - where are you located and what dealer.

Pain for resale - who cares it's your car ...

I'd say see the color yourself - if possible to decide. Not sure how a black package would clash with it.

I assume you're in the UK. When you write you put a deposit on an allocation, is it an allocation with a commission number or no allocation yet but waiting and hoping to get one i.e.V70 status?

Have an allocation, but dealer now wants me to pay over (somewhere between $40-50k). Bought 3 new cars within the past 10 months (2 Panameras (4S/Turbo) and my GT3.2) so hmmm.

I'm really feeling like saying f*** it and buying a Lusso instead. My current GT3 is my dream spec and Ferrari has been really growing on me recently. Have a little while to decide though.

Your dealer has been given his allocations from PCNA? If so, he to my knowledge is the only US dealer that has received them.

I actually think that Miami blue complements the exposed c/f frunk and roof better than all the other bright colours..Gt silver is always a great safe colour, but if i was in your shoes i would go MB, as i think it looks better with c/f than as a whole body colour.

Hi everyone!
I have spec my .2RS in lizard green with WP and black rims with green around... what you guys think?
I really don’t know if to confirm it like this to my dealer or not...
Considerations are that is a special color that the car has been launched with and that the seats Alcantara are available in green too... but from the first spy photos it doesn’t look great with the WP.... maybe better in white or all black but no contrast with WP
What are your opinions?
Thanks

Black on black with Weissach package and deviated stitching is the way to go.
