Wow thats a really great buy indeed. Nice to see the car in a different color than red. Actually looks really amazing in Yellow.

To be honest, this is one of the few Ferraris that look good in Yellow as compared to red. Precisely why my Scale model is yellow.

Great Car to Have. Reviews on Top Gear and Fifth Gear say the car is near flawless. Got Clarkson bowled over.

Congrats Mr Singhania for getting one to India!.

For me the car in Yellow looks a lot Lamborghiniish. Its not a bad thing. But a Ferrari being a Ferrari would look Hot in Scarlet!

Nice Buy , but i hope Ferrari have resolved the Fire issue cropping up in the 458's. Already dozens of 458's have blazed away(Quite Literally!!)

Stanjohn, i was just thinking the same thing. Take into account that Mumbai is forever extremely hot & humid & the risk goes up.
Had heard about the recall just recently. Has it been fixed?

Here is a little insight on the fire issue burning a 458 to a crisp!

The initial cars were recalled and the issue has been solved.

Finally saw it last night. Seems like the man was on a mission to empty that tank. Wonderful orchestra performance by the eight cylinders

@DNS. thanks for the wonderful pics.

The car looks fantastic. Were you lucky to get a ride in one of these or you got these pics through someone?

Not that it matters.

Any interior pics?

Thanks.
