Yes, it comes in black.
For me, Ferrari's coming in any color other than red is like beer coming in non-alcoholic varieties. Yeah, they exist but you have to have something wrong with your brain to actually buy one.

Frankly the thread is pointless .... comparing the body lines of a Ferrari to a Nissan.
I disagree, there is a lot to the Ferrari that appeals to most every car nut that doesn't translate to 300K in the price tag. Ever notice why the concept cars are light years better looking than the actual production models? Its when the bean counters and "value engineering" hacks get through with it and size the car down to a certain price point is when you go from "whoa" to "yup" I would gladly pay an extra 5-10K to get some better body lines. Then again, it would probably put a crimp in aftermarket body kits and custom shops.

Comparing a Ferrari F12 Berlinetta V12 to a $50k> Japanese Mid Level Luxury Sport Coupe????????

I don't know where you get your information but a Ferrari's paint job costs a hell of a lot more than $3,000. They charge $3,500 for a Carbon Fiber cup holder. (source)

Come on.

Wrong; British cars should be green (BRG), German cars should be silver, and Italian cars MUST be red...

As much as I love BMW, Mercedes and Audi, their stuff breaks all the time. Yes German engineering may be good but they have at least their fair share of issues when it comes to cars.

Have you discussed that narrow perspective with the Brits, the Germans and the Italians? I'm sure they'd love to hear your ideas!
