    OK,
    Ferrari dreams is the translation, correct even if not of common use, of Sogli di ferrari.
    A better sound could be "Sognando di una Ferrari", or "Dreaming about a Ferrari". You just make a dream focussed on a Ferrari.

    "Sognando una Ferrari" means "dreaming a Ferrari", usually with the undisclosed intention of possessing one.
    You choose :)

    Ciao

    Hmm pretty difficult....

    My site is used to be called : Sogni Di Ferrari ... or as www name: Www.sognidiferrari.com

    So... I don't want the new name/ correct name, to be too long....if you know what I mean :)

    So maybe ,Sognando di una Ferrari , sounds pretty long for a website name ?? :)

    So you say that SogLI di ferrari is more correct than sogNI di ferrari ??? :)

    Babelfish is correct. It's not easy to find a good title if you want it in italian, our language is one of the most difficult to learn and understand.
    And to translate and convert too.
    "Ferraridreaming"?
    "DreamingFerrari"?

    In my opinion "sogni di Ferrari" not sound well in Italian.
    I prefer "sognando Ferrari"

    Yes. sognandoferrari you can put in the site all about Ferrari (history,latest news...) because the name of the site didn't preclude nothing.

    for me www.sognandoferrari. is the best

    Sorry for my english:) my italian is better:D

    I like 1 and 2 the best... !
