Wow! what an absolutely beautiful spec. I love the inside...the leather is very handsome. The blue exterior is stunning too. It must have been a very fun day Nick. You got to enjoy driving a $400K+ Ferrari and when you turn the keys back to Dan...you get to drive your very own Porsche. Not a bad life I'd say. That's called clean living ! (Mike in Ohio)
$420K sticker price for a 488 is just plain stupid. especially a outgoing model. Could've got the newer 812 superfast with a v12 engine for that price.
For those wondering about the expensive paint. It is to get a better chance to stand out to Ferrari when they consider you for a limited production car allocation. Basically you need to buy highly optioned cars the dealer suggests. To possibly qualify for a F12 TDF you needed to have a California T and a FF leased or financed which you would lose a lot of money on in order to be considered for the limited production car almost guaranteed to make the money back.
Also agree something is wrong. That car has crap options... no carbon seats, no carbon interior, nope... it’s definitely not what I would call good spec at all...
@@willshepherd8869 its Blu Pozzi its for sure not 100k paint hehehehe, its same as normal rosso price. Also this car he show don't even have JBL speakers and very bad spec no carbon no carbon seats +++
That DRS feature has nothing to do with the brakes. All it does is decrease the volume of the diffuser (which in itself is very efficient at generating downforce) and as such decrease the drag generated hence the "Drag Reduction System"
The paint job on this car could you get into a base 911? Jesus.... that’s just ludicrous. I don’t care how rich you are, that’s a waste of money. That stated, the color is stunning. The interior is also perfect - sort of a London tan
Quick JAW you realize if you went to colour match in a shop your car is worth nothing after right? People think you are hiding an accident(s). Very few do it just because they can. If options were between colour matching at a shop versus paying 100k on the paint, I'd choose the latter..Good thing there are other options too.
ZDY everyone knows that once u respray a car to hide dings etc it loses value, I'm saying why does it cost Ferrari 100k and a body shop 3k for the same color
Who knew the kid from Sixteen Candles would have a 488 someday...Jake Ryan's 944 has nothing on this badboy...he might have a chance with Samantha now...
Well executed video. Thinking of making the move from 458 to the 488 and this may have pushed me over the edge. Still hesitant because I love the sound of the naturally aspirated 458. Again, good job on the video. Enjoy your fine Porsche and beautiful house!
Lovely to see you again Nick ❤️this interior makes you look like a superstar ❤️488 for a Golf, hmm, what a nice trade. Clearly, I must be doing something wrong xx
100k for paint? Honestly, it is shit like that that makes me never want to buy a Ferrari. I don't care how you justify it, there is no way a paint job can possibly cost that much. I'll stick with my 911, a complete car, for the price of that paint...jeez
Yes, how dare Ferrari offer an expensive paint that absolutely none of their customers have to buy.. It's outrageous! Also, Porsche is one of the absolute worst when it comes to option costs so I don't know why you'd go there.. Didn't they offer a $65k paint for the 918 for example? Maybe $70k is your limit when it comes to acceptable price points for paint jobs you never have to get when you go shopping for a new car..
My problem is that it is even an option, being stuck up enough to actually believe that you are offering 100k worth of paint. I suppose in the end the real idiot is the customer who selects that option. 100k for a solid colour paint job is indefensible , I would expect to have a commissioned mural on my car for that much. And yes, Porsche is nuts for options, but I can't think of a singular option on one of their regular production vehicles (not a halo car) that even comes close to this
It is a bit stuck up and the price is ridiculous, I completely agree. But the only reason they offer it at that price is because they can, and the fact that people tick that option shows that it was a great decision by Ferrari to do so. They run a business after all, and as long as customers are stupid/passionate/'insert your own word' enough to pay for it they are going to continue doing it. I just find it weird to blame Ferrari when it's the customers who decide what color their car should be in the end. For example I wouldn't stop buying $100 Nike shoes just because they happened to offer a "super exclusive" shoe for $10k. It doesn't affect the shoes I buy in any way.
LOL, u do realise there is also regular paint that cost less right? nobody is FORCING u to pay 100k for the paint unless u want to.and also coming from a porsche owner??? are u fking serious bro???
Damn what’s does Dan do for a living? He seems fairly young and has possibly the most expensive Ferrari 488 Spyder and has a $20,000 watch on? Props to him, he’s killing it!
A 100k paint job might be expensive but it might be a good investment? Since not many people would choose that option, only a handful will and therefore will be limited edition. Which for a Ferrari will gain a few hundred thousand bucks to a million. Which is a great roi
Saw a 458 in the street the other day, a red one. Saw a white one last year. Not sure of year of production. Made me feel less of a man each time as I know I can never comfortably afford one unless I sacrifice a lot.
I thought Nick had gone full macho medallion man, the tan seatbelt makes it look like he has no shirt on in the opening shots ! certainly made me double take :-)
100k paint is properly taking the piss, well done to Ferrari for extracting that amount of money out of somebody, must have been some next level pitch!
I damn near spit out my coffee when you renamed the color. I'd say that is the perfect name. As they say, if you have to ask how much it costs, then....
Don't let that 488 run into a 720S. LOL. How on God's earth is a paint job $100,000? I know Ferrari are masters at gouging people but this is impressive, even for them. There's not a new 911 worth of paint of that car.
+Rauber, I collect, well used to collect high end watches, still have some, and comparing paint to a high end watch is utterly ridiculous. It's paint and doesn't looks particularly special, it doesn't have complications, exotic materials or gem stones, or tourbillons, or is limited in production, it's paint. You need to work on your analogies. LOL
I love the 488, purists be damned. I love the way it sounds and the boost in fuel economy alone is worth the concession. However, as gorgeous as that color is, I'd leave the box for $100k paint job unchecked....I mean, seriously? Great video, Nick, as always!
Need to check you facts. Many of the points you mention were available when launched. Also check the invoice. You might find that the paint job didnt cost 100k
Not true about the $100k paint job. I quoted one of the rarest Ferrari colors at my dealership, and the color option (Tiffany Blue) costs $40k, which is one of the most expensive paint options at Ferrari.
Over 100.000 USD for that blue paintjob?!? Are they nuts?!? It looks nice, but nothing that special to me.. On the video it looks almost the same as Nick's 911 blue paint.. Does it have pure gold flakes in it or something?
Nick, which is worse: Ferrari charging $100,000 for paint or the chump that pays that for the paint?
chump for sure
could just get a wrap
If you've got eff you money, might as well pay eff you money I guess
The Chump that actually bought his car, pure money pit ..owning is like renting with the cost of maintenance ....
It's like saying a guy who pays to go to the moon is a waste of money because he could afford the trip. smh
Wow! what an absolutely beautiful spec. I love the inside...the leather is very handsome. The blue exterior is stunning too. It must have been a very fun day Nick. You got to enjoy driving a $400K+ Ferrari and when you turn the keys back to Dan...you get to drive your very own Porsche. Not a bad life I'd say. That's called clean living ! (Mike in Ohio)
I’ll assume that paint is made from truffles and saffron
$420K sticker price for a 488 is just plain stupid. especially a outgoing model.
Could've got the newer 812 superfast with a v12 engine for that price.

Thats 10K USD paint job not 100k USD, I know Ferrari good. They misinformed you
RS do you happen to know the actual name of this color? The name he provided in the video didn't seem to match on the website either. Thanks!
Also agree something is wrong. That car has crap options... no carbon seats, no carbon interior, nope... it’s definitely not what I would call good spec at all...

Ferrari can be any color, as long as it’s red.
golfbuddy1969 I prefer Black
Yellow
100 k for paint. The owner needs a sit down. He has clearly lost he's mind
or disqusting rich haha
I have lost my mind. Send help!
Guessing from the fact he looks about 20 he probably has no concept of how much money $100,000 actually is to a regular person.
Matthew Sharpe some day he will..and then he will regret that paint.
I know what $100k is worth. I can afford to spend it on paint so I don't see why I shouldn't have.
Nick, your production value just keeps getting better and better! Love the interaction between you two drivers--it makes the drag race more engaging.
That DRS feature has nothing to do with the brakes. All it does is decrease the volume of the diffuser (which in itself is very efficient at generating downforce) and as such decrease the drag generated hence the "Drag Reduction System"

Yeah right, just wrap your car the same colour
Facts, Any body shop could color match that paint easily lol but hey some people will still pay 100k for it lol
Quick JAW you realize if you went to colour match in a shop your car is worth nothing after right? People think you are hiding an accident(s). Very few do it just because they can.

ZDY everyone knows that once u respray a car to hide dings etc it loses value, I'm saying why does it cost Ferrari 100k and a body shop 3k for the same color
Because there's people out there with either too much money to burn or stupid enough to buy shit like that.
Thank you for supporting animal welfare.
My FAVORITE! Got to drive one around the Ferrari factory in Maranello earlier this year. Absolutely amazing car and experience.
Who knew the kid from Sixteen Candles would have a 488 someday...Jake Ryan's 944 has nothing on this badboy...he might have a chance with Samantha now...
Didn’t he have a Mondial Spyder in Weird Science?
That Formula 1 brake lamp tho.... Nick you’re so fing cool got a friends with super cars! Thanks for sharing!
Dan looks like he is about 16 years old. Impressive feat for him to acquire a Ferrari around the same time as his DL...
Well executed video. Thinking of making the move from 458 to the 488 and this may have pushed me over the edge. Still hesitant because I love the sound of the naturally aspirated 458. Again, good job on the video. Enjoy your fine Porsche and beautiful house!

tfw you realize Nick isn't driving bare chested and it's just the tan seatbelt
Keksi the Labrador
I also thought he opened his shirt to the navel because he was driving a Ferrari. Where's the gold chain?
I thought the same for a few seconds, how great would that be.
Took me a minute as well
“Never underestimate the power of the rear” - Nick Murray
5:53 Ferrari 466 - Nick getting a sneak preview of a new, unannounced model!
Always a typo or two somewhere in my videos!
Very surprising that the owner has not chosen carbon all over the interior, just the steering wheel
Hey but at least he has the $100k Paint job!
Nice touch adding the animal charities Nick 👍🏼👍🏼
Is it allready broken in? Brilliant! Very nice video 👍
Stunning interior. Like the blue outside but does not look 100k to me. I find that price insane.
5:53 Ferrari 466
Always a typo or two somewhere in my videos
statesidesupercars Proof u were watching the video or a prelude of an upcoming typo in the BMW 488 video.
Do you never check before you finalize and upload? Its sacrilege to incorrectly name a car that good lol
Do you never check before you finalize and upload? Its sacrilege to incorrectly name a car that good lol
He spoke about dyslexia I think it was. He misses them
Ferrari 466? That's a new model :D
lmao I was gonna say the same thing.
Always a typo or two somewhere in my videos!
Nick Murray you can do no wrong in my eyes brother
the speed difference between by all accounts a very fast car and the 488 is just mind blowing
Great content Nick.and what a spec on that 488...If u dnt mind me asking what does Dan do for a living?
He is a son... pretty hard gig and he worked very hard to pop out of that particular vajayjay
If its Dan Lesin, he's in jail now for federal wire fraud Ferrari related ironically enough.
Your friend looks like the kinda guy that sells weed for a living...
Jarl Ballin' If this guy is selling weed he's nation wide....
what does his friend do?
😂😂😂
400k that a Rain forest of weed
Thanks for making and sharing this video. Love the engine sound you captured.
Hello Nick from Johannesburg South Africa, I've been subscribed for over a year now. Great vids, great personality
The owner looks like the type of guy who would make a TH-cam video titled "I'M WRAPPING MY $100K PAINTJOB!!!"
A 911 and a 488 ... now that’s a very nice 2 car garage 👍
Nick dear man a pleasure as always.
100k for paint? Honestly, it is shit like that that makes me never want to buy a Ferrari. I don't care how you justify it, there is no way a paint job can possibly cost that much. I'll stick with my 911, a complete car, for the price of that paint...jeez

For example I wouldn't stop buying $100 Nike shoes just because they happened to offer a "super exclusive" shoe for $10k. It doesn't affect the shoes I buy in any way.
Why don't you get yours with a regular dark blue paint job then? Ferrari is not asking you to justify the price nor to bash them into grounds
LOL, u do realise there is also regular paint that cost less right? nobody is FORCING u to pay 100k for the paint unless u want to.and also coming from a porsche owner??? are u fking serious bro???
Didn't look that impressive going 11mph...
PS - That spec is awesome!!! OMG...
Nicks review is so good. Every car he recommends I want one.
9:23 That’s not active brake cooling, it’s part of the active aerodynamics. It’s a DRS system like what they use in formula 1.
Nick, you are full of it... I have a 458 and I get almost 20 on the highway.
Awesome video, awesome car. Congrats to the owner on that one, the color seems really special.
Looks like you and Mark Zuckerberg had a great time! :P
Great vid Nick! Love your content. 5:54 says "Ferrari 466" xD
Stunning spec - he doesn’t even look old enough to drive - I wonder how many times he’ll get pulled ‘for stealing his dads car’ 😂😂
With that paint job, hopefully it has PPF installed 😳
With the price of that paint, hopefully it has double layer PPF installed. lol
Damn what’s does Dan do for a living? He seems fairly young and has possibly the most expensive Ferrari 488 Spyder and has a $20,000 watch on? Props to him, he’s killing it!
Did he pass judgement? I must have missed his other comment, because it's not in this one. What I read here is a compliment to the man's success.
Kid just got arrested by the FBI for wire fraud. Scam artist POS
You will have to update your contacts , now it´s DEN 488 . Don't know why but I'm an ULTRA FAN of the Blu .
A 100k paint job might be expensive but it might be a good investment? Since not many people would choose that option, only a handful will and therefore will be limited edition. Which for a Ferrari will gain a few hundred thousand bucks to a million. Which is a great roi
Yes it will only lose 60% in 5 years instead of 68% - awesome investment no wonder he can afford this car SMH FML
Saw a 458 in the street the other day, a red one. Saw a white one last year. Not sure of year of production. Made me feel less of a man each time as I know I can never comfortably afford one unless I sacrifice a lot.
Who else thinks the Ferrari owner can't drive stick, hence using the golf to shoot the video...
I thought Nick had gone full macho medallion man, the tan seatbelt makes it look like he has no shirt on in the opening shots ! certainly made me double take :-)
Press that bumpy road button already, matey!
Nice one! I was surprised to hear that the 458 is skittish and bangs into gears (considering it has a dual clutch), but I haven't driven one yet so..
100k paint is properly taking the piss, well done to Ferrari for extracting that amount of money out of somebody, must have been some next level pitch!
I damn near spit out my coffee when you renamed the color. I'd say that is the perfect name. As they say, if you have to ask how much it costs, then....
Your Microphones really capture that engine note!!!!!!!!!!
I like that the 0-60 is "2.9 reliability" and the drag race is apparently a "Ferrari 466". Did you edit this video one handed?
Thanks Nick. Excellent. I love that spec car. What? No engine shot, oh well.
Notice I didn’t mention the 466 graphic ;-)
Ferrari 488 spider is a thing of beauty cool car.
For a second thought it's Deadmau5...
I think you ve reach the top of the nirvana mountain my friend, very nice very very nice . Cheer ! SoulDave
Don't let that 488 run into a 720S. LOL. How on God's earth is a paint job $100,000? I know Ferrari are masters at gouging people but this is impressive, even for them. There's not a new 911 worth of paint of that car.
venom5809 Same as why some Patek watches are 150.000k when a A. Lange die 60k has better finish&movement: status
great point, ferrari is in its own league.
Imagine driving that without PPF.. every stone chip is a couple hundred bucks
+Rauber, I collect, well used to collect high end watches, still have some, and comparing paint to a high end watch is utterly ridiculous. It's paint and doesn't looks particularly special, it doesn't have complications, exotic materials or gem stones, or tourbillons, or is limited in production, it's paint. You need to work on your analogies. LOL
Mo-hammad Abunaser a pen of touch up paint is probably $2k. Crazy
You know know at least one person at Ferrari questioned whether or not anyone would actually buy that paint job.
Pretty crazy caliber car, Nick, I would be scared to drive it.
I love the 488, purists be damned. I love the way it sounds and the boost in fuel economy alone is worth the concession. However, as gorgeous as that color is, I'd leave the box for $100k paint job unchecked....I mean, seriously? Great video, Nick, as always!
Upgrade to a GT2RS and the liquid metal paint from the 918 costs at Porsche only ca. 40k.
Not sure if its the glasses or the car, but that swag...
Need to check you facts. Many of the points you mention were available when launched. Also check the invoice. You might find that the paint job didnt cost 100k
When paint cost over $100k you should remember the name of the color fyi the passenger always had the information screen
Do your neighbors think you’re a drug dealer with all these nice cars in your driveway?
I am a drug dealer
always convenient to have a supply located in the neighborhood!
Pro tip: Skip the flesh-coloured seat belts when you spec your Ferrari build.
I had a ride in a 720 S McClaren 2 weeks ago. 3000lbs and 720hp....if you think that 488 was fast you have to experience the 720S.
Great review, but would have liked to see the passenger electronic screen
HAHA - Miller Motorcars...used to go there all the time when I was a kid...my Dad bought a Boxer from them. 512 BB.
Nick! You’re crazy to show yourself doing triple digits on the highway. You should cover that up!
Are you sure your “friend” isn’t a Valet driver?
Kid just got arrested by the FBI for wire fraud. Scam artist POS
First one in the US! Good for you Nick.
Not true about the $100k paint job. I quoted one of the rarest Ferrari colors at my dealership, and the color option (Tiffany Blue) costs $40k, which is one of the most expensive paint options at Ferrari.
That is Very Close to PPG 520 Blu Pozzi, are you sure it's not that color? (Big fan of Blu Pozzi Ferraris)
Wow. Great vid. Wow. There's no way you can call a C4S slow, but dayyyummm!
Over 100.000 USD for that blue paintjob?!? Are they nuts?!? It looks nice, but nothing that special to me.. On the video it looks almost the same as Nick's 911 blue paint.. Does it have pure gold flakes in it or something?
Nick looking cute in this video especially when talking about paint!
Great video as always! Hoping you get a chance to review the AMG GTR some time ! 😁
I assume that with a 100k paint job you won’t take the car to Walmart on Saturday pm...
Was your friend on track in June 1st? I saw a similar 488 right nearby my C4S.
Can I have dark blue? -That'll be $100 thousand, sir.
Hey Nick, what does justify this huge premium for this color? From the video, I cannot seem to see why it would be that expensive.
if I could afford a 100K paint option I definitely wouldn't be hanging out with Nick Murray unless i could write the time off on my taxes.
Any supercar without horrid black wheels is beautiful in my book
Suits you. Really does. Writing from the Isles of Scilly (Off Cornish Coast).
An excellent Kiwi review
I'd rather experience the bang bang gear changes in the 458 just for that mechanical feeling
That acceleration is ridonculous
911 pitter pattering along
Out the box gorgeous car. congratulations man..!!
Gorgeous spec bro, love it
Gr8 video Nick, but with only 200+ mls on the Clock, revving to 6grand is okay??
my dream car , im going to live in my parents basement and eat ramen until i'm 52 years old to afford one. sacrifices must be made.
The car is amazing. Just sad the turbos make so much noise, it ruins the sound of the engine...
Such a classy spec
NO PET on background! (Y) Great video!
