    Just purchased a 2000 550 Maranello Red/Tan w/11,098 miles. New Tubi exhaust just installed and vehicle is ready for delivery! My dad bought a new 308 GTSi in 1980 and we had a great time as a family enjoying FCA events and track days. He sold the car in 1983 and I have longed to get back into the Ferrari "game" ever since. I have waited 32 years for the timing to be right to buy a Ferrari and that time is finally here!

    I have had my 550 for two years now, put 8000 miles on it, and I love it.
    Drive it to work a few times a week, trips to Palm Beach, etc.
    When I retire, I want to circumnavigate the US on it. You will love yours too.

    Congratulations! Welcome back! I always make it a point to take my young daughter for rides on the F cars hoping that they form good car "memories" for when she gets older too! Put a lot of miles on her though, a Ferrari not driven is not acceptable
