    Yesterday I brought my 328 GTB for its annual service at Ferrari of Washington which this year was just an oil change. On one side of my car was an Enzo and on the other was Mike Hawthorn's 1953ish 212. My "lowly" 328 was in great company. It is so cool to get this experience just by owning a 328. Richard C does great work and he treats my car just like he does the others. They even fed me lunch. Great day!

    Lowly 328? I think not. A Ferrari, is a Ferrari.

    There is no such thing as a lowly Ferrari!

    Porsche on the other hand... Just kidding.

    Yes, Richard is an amazing mechanic; wonderful to deal with. He does all the work on my 328.

    Haha,

    The quotes around lowly was an attempt not to be serious. I dont know if any owner (from Mondial 8 to a 250 GTO) loves their Ferrari more than I do, but I know there are alot of ties with most of you!

    How's it going, Dan?

    Great to hear the GTB went another year with no real incidents. The GTB's first service under my watch was uneventful as well. Thanks for giving Richard C and the guys at FoW a heads-up about me and my car!

    This year, between the E36 M3 and the GTB, the M3 actually took a bigger chunk out of my wallet in repair expenses (rt. front wheel bearings) than the GTB!
