About Rosso Corsa Metallizzato
The metallic version of Rosso Corsa. Ferrari's configurator lists it as ROSSO CORSA MET. under 2-layer special paint, on the current range from the 296 and Roma Spider to the 12Cilindri, Purosangue and F80; carpaints.co describes it as the metallic version of the iconic color, released more recently than the solid. Paint code PPG 266165, read from a factory paint sticker that carries the name as "Rosso Corsa Met.". Owners began specifying it on the 488 in late 2016 — FerrariChat member 997usa took delivery that December and called it "a deep and great color on the 488". The point of it: solid Rosso Corsa goes flat where the light leaves a panel, while the metallic keeps a sheen from every angle — so if you want Rosso Corsa but want it to look shiny at every angle, Rosso Corsa Metallizzato is the better option. Photo estimate: sampled from the front wings of the F8 in direct sun, both sides agreeing within a degree of hue; phone photographs in sunlight push the saturation up, so the real paint likely sits a little less vivid than the value shown, nearer the Rosso Corsa chip. Both cars' colors are as stated by their owners.
