Congrats on the new 328GTS. I don't know much about the 328's but I have been reading up on them. They really are beautiful. Is the GTS a hardtop? I.e. the top is fixed, right? Patrick  |

Congrats on your new toy! I finally got my first a couple of months ago so I know how exciting it is. Love to see some pics of the car. |

Congrats Matt. I bought an 86 GTS 2 mos ago (Same Colors) and still am amazed at how solid the car is. I live in Florham Park, NJ (just outside of Morristown/Livingston). These guys are right...My car had 17k when I bought it and these guys were breaking my chops that I have a garage queen...you need to exercize the car...I have had a huge brain dump of info from these guys and my Ferrari mechanic. I'd love to see your car and share my recent experiences and words of wisdom. Call me at 973.884.9161 or email at [email protected] Cheers! |

Congrats! Got the same car 4 months ago, and have been enjoying it immensely. Only advice is, don't freak when you get that inevitable, first paint chip (like I did). It'll happen. Have fun. |

Matthew, Congratulations, and keep on driving! I lost my 308 GTS a couple months ago and have been without a Ferrari. I hope to close on a similar 87 328 GTS red/tan this Friday. Just needs to pass the PPI.... |

Just picked it up last friday and have been driving it non-stop...is that a bad idea? I just love the way it drives. Anyway, it is a 1987 328 GTS with tan leather interior and red exterior. It has 38K miles and looks like a brand new car...it's amazing. I can not believe i did not get one sooner. Any advice on maintenance would be greatly appreciated. PS I will put some pics up next week |
