I am trying to gather personal experiences with "THE LIST". I would like to have people list their experiences (purchases) with what it takes to be a great customer vs. average. IMO anybody who buys a Ferrari should be classified as a great customer (current and future).

The list is nothing more than a guide for the dealer. Length and time is related to location AND your standing with the dealer. If you have been a good customer a list does not mean a thing. I have been told by reliable sources that good customer who have not placed their name on a list can get a car on very short notice (read they leap frog over people who are on the list).

Deposits are not required for known customers and minimal deposits $1000-5000 are required for new customers again depending on the dealership.

If I have one frustration with Ferrari it is with the distribution of their cars. Limited production fosters inequities in the system. I am not sure what the answer is.

I know at my Porsche dealership they have a computer printer out showing where on stand on the list for the rumored TT Cab. I am #1 and when they build it I will have the right to order it first regardless of my prior relationship with the dealership and who wants one. Sad to say that is not the case with Ferrari.

Would all of you list your personal experience of being on a Ferrari Dealership's LIST awaiting a new car delivery? Time on the LIST, deposit required and was the quoted time accurate. Please list what car you were waiting for.
