I've spotted this 488 Pista, which was my third or fourth Pista at that time, on Park Avenua heading downton. I could actually here the car before seeing it and was hoping for an 488 of which I've seen none in NYC (aside from this Pista, of course). The doorman from a nearby tower was pretty intrigued about what I was spotting and actually stopped some traffic for me to take better pictures. I was very thrilled to spot that this 488 was in fact a Pista. I like that the owner's also giving me a job idea about how to obtain such a car. Rivitography has already spotted this 488 in Greenwich and has an additional story about this car. Interestingly, it doesn't have some of its decals anymore. It's fun to have a mutual spot with him once again.

Stunning spot! Pretty cool what the doorman did for you :)
How many more cool US spots are you still needing to post?

Awesome spot! The car has since been sold through Miller Motorcars and has a new owner.

Shame that the front lift was up.. Still a sweet catch and spec! Nice spot!

@OPspotters Thanks :)! It was surprising to me that I could spot a few exciting cars in the end as Manhattan seems to be so car-hostile :D
@Jjrivero Thanks :) I have quite a few lovely spots, one of them is a highlight by any definition :D
@Rivitography Nice info, thanks. It seems he didn't like all the decals too much :/

@LuxurySpottings actually there is a rumor going around that it was repo’d. Not sure how true that is but someone posted that on VINWiki under this car’s VIN.
