    Today my dream came true. I just finished signing the papers on a 1989 Ferrari 348 TS.

    Details:
    10,081 miles
    1 Owner (he bought it brand new in 1989)
    Factory luggage option
    Almost 19 years of service records
    All keys, tools, car cover, and books

    I will post the story of tracking this down later. But here are the pictures!

    Proud of you Michael. Beautiful car, and the right colors. Just one bit of advise. If you think you tire problems, do not, I repeat, do not pull into the median of I-95. I am speaking from experience.

    Enjoy your dream!

    Congrats on the Ferrari ownership. It took a while but you found the perfect car. What a deal. So happy for you. On top a 348...and you know how I feel about them :)
    Now lets keep the fingers crossed that your new baby comes in time for the first of the month dinner. With timing you may take delivery at the next monthly dinner...now that would be a first :)

    How the heck do you find a primo car like that anyway??? 10k miles, must have had to pay a real premium for that, eh (notice the Canadian accent)?

    I heard that he thought that he had found this other, really nice, 348 but that the owner's family black-balled the sale (pretty cool family, I might add) - so he had to throw himself upon the mercy of strangers.
