Default Traded the GT4

Well this morning I said goodbye to my GT4 PDK.

I had been waiting for a really nice spec Ferrari Approved 458 Italia to pop up at my local Ferrari dealer. This week a car became available that was too good to pass up. I did the deal this morning and also did the paperwork to request a 296 GTB allocation.

I took a pretty long test drive before delivery and the car exceeded my hopes and expectations.

i wish I could afford more toys. It would be sweet to have the GT4 and 458 at the same time.

458 is my dream Ferrari. The last of the great ones. Congrats. I got to drive one once, then drove a 488 right after. The newer 488 was a huge disappointment. The 458 shined.

Oh, I should also mention, if anyone is interested in buying a 2021 GT4 PDK with 3500 miles call Ferrari of Houston. The car is white, black wheels, steel brakes, 18- ways, bose, climate control, fire extinguisher.

The car was never tracked, stored indoors. The car was clayed, mild correction, cquartz finest reserve upon delivery. Only washed by the detailer.

Same here, wish I made the move when they dipped a few years ago, but at least I got a really good one.

Congrats! That’s always been my dream trade too, my white 718 GT4 in for a white/silver/blue 458 with an eye towards the 296GTB. Instead, I went with trading the GT4 in for a GT4RS due in November. Either way you get a great, true driver’s car that should (hopefully) go up in value over time (or at least hold it).

As others have said, can't blame you for making that trade. Congrats on the move. Post 458 pics!

Yes sir. One of those I wouldn’t have ordered it but I love it colors. Looks nice in the sun.

2seats,

Your the man

Seriously if I lived in a large City here in the USA where there were Ferrari shops as well as New Ferrari Dealerships.
I'd love to have the 458 Ferrari as my Last (True) Sports Car.

Major congratulations Sir.

Personally for what it's worth I'll miss posting with you here on Rennlist.com

Be Safe buddy and ENJOY,
Terry Honaker

Thanks Terry. You’re a good sport. When I occasionally teased you it was all in good fun.
