People usually like to pick on Porsche for the black hole that is Zuffenhausen optional extras list, but that's only because the Porsche crest somehow seems more down to Earth than the Prancing Horse. So it's time to focus on the Ferrari optional extra realm and we'll do that with the help of the 488 Spider in the piece of footage below.
However, before we kick off this adventure, we need to remind you that, as car collector Rob Ferretti explains in the clip, this isn't one of those hypercar episodes where the options costs as much as a supercar.
Instead, we're trying to keep things at a level that would still allow a (possibly delusional) non-millionaire aficionado to dream about owning such a machine one day.
To put things shortly, the 488 Spider in this video comes with a price of $383,239, which means it has a little over $100,000 worth of options. And, once again as Rob points out, you could buy a Z07 Package-gifted Corvette Z06 with that kind of money - you know, Chevrolet's 650 hp supercar. Or you could always grab a 2016 Porsche 911 Carrera S without any options.
While we won't waste your time with talking about the features Rob explains in the video, there's one ironical aspect we need to point out - a hefty part of the toll taken by these optional goodies has to do with interior and exterior carbon fiber pieces. Well, isn't it (more than a bit) ironic that such an offensive, which, by the way, is incredibly desirable, brings quite a lot of carbon to a supercar that's actually built of aluminum?
Speaking of which, here's to hoping the LaFerrari has set an example for the next generation of Prancing Horses, which would mean that Maranello finally decides to switch to a carbon fiber tub for its... plebeian offerings.
