    Age is supposed to promote patience. Well, I can attest that is not the case when you wait for your first brand new Ferrari.

    A big "thank you" to the Ferrarichat community for making waiting bearable and educational. Having read just about every thread during the last 4 months, I sure knew a great deal what to look for and what to look out for.

    Well, on Saturday it was finally the moment.

    She is everything I had hoped she would be. We had a blast putting her through her paces over the weekend - 250 miles in two days!

    I really her cool Grigio Silverstone looks with yellow highlights!

    Congratulations! I'm also getting Grigio Silverstone with shields and yellow calipers. Your picture highlights the different hues GS reflects depending on the light. Enjoy!

    Congrats Jurgen.
    Your car looks fantastic. Love yellow calibers on Silverstone.
    Same colors as my 430.
    Have fun and enjoy her every day.
