I really wanted to share this but didn't feel like starting a new thread just to toot my own horn.... /humble filter off I usually don't like to shout out my accolades, BUT I think this is a bit different. My TR is in a national magazine that is NOT Ferrari related (ok, it is a car mag tho). If you happen into a big enough magazine rack take a gander at the Sept'00 issue of Max Power (there is a red Audi TT on the cover) turn to page 79 (altho the page number isn't ON that page) and there on the bottom is a pic of my TR! I don't necessarily suggest you buy the mag as I don't think any of much of the other information or advertising will NOT be of much help or interest to Ferrari owners. I don't have a scanner, but I took a digi-pic of what you will see on that page:  on a related side note there are 12 pics of cars with the article (on the local import car show) funny how 2 of them are my cars (the other car isn't MINE, but I did the customization, it's the blue MBZ compressor on page 76). /humble filter back on -Ben | ||

Ben... We always enjoy pictures of your car. It looks great! I like the views from the north side of the GG bridge looking back at SF -- one of my favorite cities. | ||

Not sure if I should do this, as there seem to be more pics of my car on this site than any other car (ugh), but today proved just right for me to get this shot in (yes I took it today), so without further aidue. Why I own a TR and live in SF. -Ben   | ||

Ok, I had my baby in her first pagent. I wasn't entered to compete, but I'm told that I would have won hands down if I had. Not trying to brag, but the Lambo (99 Diablo + Jiota Conversion) behind me won Exotic Class. There was the Ferrari moment when the owner of the Lambo was on stage to get his trophy, they read his name then said for the Ferrari Testarossa, he stopped dead in his tracks like a deer in headlights as he was making his way across the stage. The annoucer after a dramatic pause, says "just kidding, we know yours is a Lambo"....more humorous moments and pics of chicks and cars upon request. -Ben P.S. The red NSX next to me was the shoe-in for the winner (it has won countless times), the group who owns that also owns the Lambo, Ford SUV (shown) and a 355 among others. They were surprised that their Lambo got it, they drove it up from SoCal to SF area getting 6mpg, and gave it a dry wash while they were driving it into the bldg.   | ||

Thanks for all the wonderful comments. I'll post some more pics, sooner or later. This ended up being the first one that caught my eye, then I did some research, incl. shopping around, and wound up with that (same) one that just caught my eye. -Ben BruceK contact me directly for the juicy deatils. | ||

Ben, Great car! Where did you find your car and how long did it take? I'm starting to look for a car would appreciate hearing any stories/advice you may have. Regards, Bruce | ||

Although I have a red TR myself I tend to like them in different colors. This is really a wonderful example! | ||

I was going to wait until I took some of my own pics, but decided to start with these. The following pics are from the Ferrari Dealer (sales website) before I became the new owner.     |
