At first, one might expect the image sitting before us to be a Photoshop job. After all, the world wide web is constantly flooded with such pixel plays nowadays. However, this Ferrari 488 Pista spec is as real as they get, with the Italian exotic having recently been caught on camera while in London.
The shade of blue covering this 720 horspower toy (if anybody can help with identifying the exact name of the color, that would be appreciated) is enough to turn the machine into an attention magnet.

Nevertheless, the devil is in the details with this one. I'm refering to the yellow bits found on the supercar. Sure, we've all seen yellow stripes adorning various examples of the Pista, but those headlights are an uber-rare sight.

Most likely an aftermarket job, the newfound color of the machine's eyes reminds one of the motorsport realm, as, for instance, Maranello uses such headlight on the 488 GTE.

Of course, this is not the only road-going Ferrari in the world to turn to such a visual trick. For instance, here's a LaFerrari whose owner went for the same racecar look.

Since we're talking configurations for the Ferrari 488 Pista, I'll remind you we recently discussed what might be the best-looking spec released to date.

Sure, such a title is subjective, but check out this Azzurro La Plata example, which comes with no stripes at all and decide for yourself.

Still fancy those stripe? Well, the Verde Francesca 488 Pista has quite a story to tell. Truth be told, the tale is not about the stripes, even though these are present. Instead, the base hue is the main attraction of the supercar. That's because we're talking about a new color, one that Ferrari brought to life following a special request (spoiler alert: the fresh shade is based on a Maserati color).
