    After being status 90 for all of February, I finally got the surprise email that my car had just been delivered and is being prepped for delivery. Can't wait!

    Lake Forest hopes to have the car ready for pick up on Monday. So the forecast of 40 and sunny better hold true. I'll be driving it back with the top down no doubt :).

    "Unfortunately", I'll be leaving for London just two days after. Argh! Brand new car and then I have to be gone for almost a week. Oh mercy.

    Hope to meet up with some of you guys for Ferrari events in 07.

    Red/tan, red piping'n'stiching, carbon dash, yellow tach.

    I know, I know. Very traditional :). I got my Gallardo in Midas Yellow too. So two archetypical cars for their respective brands.

    Congratulations on the new car. Join some of our events on here in the summer!

    And regarding that trip to London: I'm sure you'll find some good spirited volunteer on here who keeps your car company while you're gone...

    Congrats and welcome to the group. Just in case as you travel and you need someone to exercise your cars, you can always call me up, even at the last minute, LOL.

    See you cruising this summer!

    No, I'm closer to down town. The roads I usually take are 55, 294, 90/94, Sheridan Road and LSD originating from downtown. There hasn't been a lot of that just lately, though. I've only had the car out for 2 days over the past month and a half. Come on Spring!!

    Just went to have a look at the car. Oh my, it's beauty. It might be done already on Saturday, but the forecast doesn't look like that's a good day to pick it up.

    I have to get them to figure something out with the wheels too. It comes with ball-polished and I really don't like that look. Regular or challenge looks so much better.

    Congrats. It's always good to know another F430 being born.

    Don't forget to share pictures with us once you get the car!
