## Overview

| Highlight | Detail |

| Race-car intake, road-car plate | The inlet plenums moved from the flanks to the rear spoiler area, following the 488 Challenge layout. The shorter path feeds the most powerful production Ferrari V8 of its day. |
| The stripe is specification | Factory stripe, carbon wheels, racing seats and exposed carbon are visible value signals. Tailor Made cars widen the spread further; originality matters more than option count alone. |
