    Congrats! Would love to see some interior shots when you're not too busy driving her. Is that Crema or Tan?

    Best part is a few more days of good weather in Long Island to have the top down.

    Heard the engine music of the T last night.

    In a word, epic for a turbo! It sounded like a NA!

    Here's the thing. Ferrari, the most storied manufacturer with a tradition second to none, has done its very best with their first Turbo model.

    Unfortunately with turbo engines, it is all too easy for aftermarket tuners to bring more HP and torque.

    But at what cost?

    Aside from invalidating the factory warranty which is worth at least $15k (5K per year) one risks mechanical damage and failing emissions. And what about the engine music? I wonder if simply cranking up boost will affect the music of the engine.

    Yes you get some cheap thrills, but at a cost. Listening to whooshes instead of growls isn't a good trade off in my mind.

    But of course there are those who will opine otherwise!
