    I'm getting married next month on the 19th and looking do something special for my bride that day. We're both Ferrari fans to no end (well, I've been on this site for quite some time :) and cues from the marque will be at the reception), and I'd like to be able to surprise her with a ride in one from the church to wedding reception venue.

    Asking for this opportunity/ gift to her is quite humbling and for any of the local owners to even consider this is goes beyond the appreciation & thankfulness I can show.

    Here's the details... That sat morning I drive her from the church in West Allis to the Oconomowoc Lake Club. Just a one way drive under the conditions set forth by the owner and obviously I will be more than willing to offer compensation for this opportunity and the owner's time & effort. You will be more than welcome to stay as long as you choose to, including dinner.

    I have driven several models of them on the street and have tracking experience with them as well. I am willing to provide references and accounts of past driving activities of for piece of mind's sake.

    For those interested and wanting more information, I cannot thank you enough, John

    I would help, but I am 2 hours north. Clearly there has to be a more local helper.

    John's a good guy and Andrea's a great gal.

    John, I'd let you use my 328 for the drive but as you know I can't attend the wedding since I'm out of town that weekend.

    If you have David Curro's contact info he could probably find you a ride via someone in FCA. Maybe hit him up on Facebook?

    Shouldn't the guy who delivers a Ferrari to your wedding be the best man. And if he's the best man then why is she marrying him.

    Steve, Where do I begin on thanking you for your graciousness for the use of your California on our day!!

    Chandra, I am also extremely grateful for your consideration also for the use of one of your cars as well!!

    You guys above that have said kind things and had positive words- THANK YOU too! It's neat how this forum transcends from the virtual to real life at times!

    For others in the area, we will be having a exotic/sports car themed procession from West Allis to the Oconomowoc Lake Club that morning. Send me a pm or ask here for more details on that. A certain local F40 will be leading the way...and more are welcome to join us!
