    I find this the really hard part. Until I got the call, I didn't think about it. Then when you get the call, you can't stop thinking.

    Then, one day, you and your car meet each other for the first time and reality sets in. That's the best.

    This is one of my favorite posts on FC i remember watching racerdj talking about buying a manual 430 like it was yesterday and suddenly your days away from collecting your brand new 458. I hope and pray it is everything you wished for and more :)

    Congrats Dave! Mine is still on a truck as of yesterday to Atlanta. I am hoping for delivery this week, however, unlikely. It looks like late next week for me! Enjoy!

    I'm looking forward to your car arriving here at FOA. We'll get it PDI'd and to you as soon as it hits the ground. If I can help in any way please let me know.
