What are the best accessories for Ferrari 296 GTS owners?

Question

I’m getting frustrated trying to figure out which accessories are actually worth buying for my Ferrari 296 GTS. There are so many expensive options that look nice but may not be useful, and I dont want to waste another $2,000 on something that just sits in the garage. I’ll mainly use the car for weekend drives around Miami, with a few longer road trips planned this summer. So I was thinking about a proper car cover, better luggage, a phone mount, paint protection, and maybe upgraded floor mats, but my logic was I should ask owners first. What accessories have genuinely made your 296 GTS easier or more enjoyable to live with?

> “I’ll mainly use the car for weekend drives around Miami, with a few longer road trips planned this summer.” Before narrowing it down: will the 296 spend most nights in a climate-controlled garage, or outside near the coast? Salt air and sun change the priorities quite a bit. For road trips, I’d look at Ferrari 296 GTS Genuine 4-Piece Luggage Set Custom-Fit Travel Bags if you want perfect fit, though it’s pricey. A cheaper approach is soft-sided carry-ons that fit the front and rear storage without hard corners. For the floor, WeatherTech Ferrari 296 GTB/GTS FloorLiner HP Laser-Measured All-Weather Mats are practical for Miami rain and beach debris, even if they’re less elegant than Ferrari’s mats. I’d also budget around $1,000–$2,000 for a professional ceramic coating; it makes washing bugs and road film much easier, but it won’t prevent stone chips like film does.

Skip flashy extras. Get a fitted Covercraft Custom Car Cover WeatherShield HP cover, front-end PPF, and ProClip Ferrari 296 GTB/GTS Phone Mount; those genuinely improve ownership.
