    Congrats mate!! Very very nice. Yellow/tan is a very cool combo. You dont see it too often as most are yellow/black. Enjoy the car in good health. What year is it? How many miles on it? Cheers. :)

    The wheels are correct for those spirited drives in reverse.

    Whoa! Someone didn't read the label and put your TR in the dryer. ;)

    Congrats, Huskerbill. I know you'll enjoy the extra horsies, and the SJPD will be happy with giallo fly.

    Thanks for the comments guys!!

    Thanks for noticing the wheels. That little problem was going to take car of itself in the form of NEW wheels within the first week of ownership. Some black Challenge wheels would be nice IMO..........

    35k miles. Pretty fresh major.

    Yes, it matches the "hot wife".......HA!!! David I was going to call you today. Talked to Vince this morning and you were on the list for the late afternoon call. What's the PA/MN location stuff?? Work related?? Heard pops got the new Porsche Turbo. Between you and your dad, the stable is quite impressive...........

    Santana Row?? Definitely. I will have to chat with Tony about he (with Vector), his wife (with 360), and my wife and I cruising in together. We had another conversation last week about completely different "matching cars" and it was under serious consideration......... Anyway, it will be nice to HAVE a Ferrari again and be able to take it down on Saturdays!!

    Well it looks like a Testarossa from the side but I don't know about that front end!

    Very nice.

    What a surprise.

    Thanks!!

    I should have my car by next week's Santana Row get-together. A surprise indeed. I was 99% sure I was going to be getting a Testarossa. This car is growing on me more and more by the day and I haven't even taken delivery yet......

    Since you live in SJ would it not make sense for you to now change your log-on?

    Or do you still have a truck load of corn you moved out?

    I love the TRs, but I think the 348 would be more nimble and more driveable around town. Will be interested to hear what you think after your 328 experience.

    I can tell you this, the TR was NOT as nimbe at all as the 328. In fact, I wasn't terribly impressed with the maneuverability, much less the pickup. It didn't "feel" a whole heckuva lot faster than my old car. That was weird.

    The 348 will for sure feel faster IMO. I will let you know what I think........

    The next pics will be from my driveway when I get the car. As of now it is still at the dealership. It was supposed to be picked up Friday, but the part had not come in for the AC that they were fixing. Looks like a Wednesday pickup and next Friday/Saturday delivery, which is actually better than if it were delivered this weekend or in the middle of next week. I have a BUSY week for work next week and I am actually typing this from the office on a Saturday night. I will be in again tomorrow. :-(

    So a FRI/SAT delivery will make for a NICE little break from work (I am taking FRI off). I should be at Santana Row with it next weekend, if I get it FRI or early SAT. And from there, I am heading straight over to a wheel shop........I have plans.........

    Looking forward to it..........

    I love the colour combo!!! Am thinking of changing my interior colour... would also love to see more pics of the car with the interior....

    I love my Challenge rims on my car, but am awaiting arrival of a nice set of 3 piece rims....

    Not sure. Something needed to be rebuilt to be perfect. They want me to get the car in Concours type condition inside and out. I want that too....... ;-)

    I thought he said condensor or something. I know it cost around $1000 or something and it is at the dealership right now. As soon as it gets done, it goes on the truck to come "home"........

    I will let you know more when I find out myself. They are including the work order receipts.
