    Who here dreams of a Ferrari in their garage, but is still far away from realizing that dream? I thought for a while there I was getting close, but due to some circumstances I see it drifting away more than I see it getting closer. Not a great feeling! Who else on board is with me?

    I have always dreamed of owning a Ferrari...ever since I was four years old. I am 17 now and that fire is still burning strongly. Hopefully the dream will become a reality for you, me, and anyone else who has that fire within them. :)

    All the best,
    -G.B.

    I will join the club here. Even though things are tough right now I still feel that I will own one before I die.

    Always been a dream of mine to own for a LOOOOONG Time. Have a few things to get a handle on 1st. Once that happens I could see a possibility of ownership in the next 1-3 years.

    LONG LIVE YOUR DREAM!

    I've wanted a Ferrari since my dad bought me a Ferrari book when I was four. I'm 14 and go to the local Ferrari dealer a couple times a month to look at my dream car the Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano, with of course the HGTE package in Rosso Corsa.

    I would love to own an old 250 or 275. But they will be untouchable by the time I can afford a Ferrari.

    Me, but if it happens it happens ... not the meaning of my life. Would also like an older Alfa Romeo ... to go with my 1750GTV.

    Someday I'll own a white 3x8....We'll see how soon. About a year and a half to two years ago I was hunting. Personal issues came up and I put it on hold rather than trying to buy and struggle to properly maintain or half ass ownership like some had done with exotics.

    I'm a member of this group. Coming back from lunch today, I saw a sliver of red passed a bush through an open garage door. My boss and I turned around and, sure enough, it was a 308 GTS.

    Ferrari is on my mind 24/7, and it's my only goal in life - after that, I'll just want more Ferraris. Once I have one, if I can afford to retire, I'll spend the rest of my life driving it around the world over and over again.

    This recent thread was a very nice inspiration.

    Im not dreaming to own a Ferrari. I know for sure I will own and drive a Ferrari at one point in my life. Maybe after retirement, maybe not, i just know i will own one. Thats one thing i have to do/own in my single life.

    I want to attend my wedding driving a Ferrari, hopefully a F430 spider.

    Keep your dreams alive and one day they will come true, God-willing. I have a poster hanging on my wall that says:

    "The journey of 1000 miles begins with one single step"

    That "dream Ferrari" may be 1000 miles away, but don't stop chasing it because one day you will get there.

    About 27 years "flash" to "bang."

    Could have gotten it much earlier but HAD TO take care of me and the family F I R S T.



    You can "dream" or have a "goal."

    There are no such things as unicorns. There are such things as Ferraris.



    Define a GOAL and NEVER, EVER, EVER give it up. I did not.

    I'm 22 and finally starting to piece together a pretty solid picture of what I want to do with my career. The only thing left to do is execute. As my Dad has told me my whole life, regardless of the business, if I'm the best at it, I'll have financial success.
