Ferrari Sightings

P1....must be nice. I'd love to see that car sometime.

 

Congratulations!!! - and absolutely can't wait to see pics and hear your thoughts on the first day!!! I can't imagine how excited you must be!

Dang, I need to go out for a drive in Raleigh. I want to see it.

 

congratulations Mark. drive it in good health.

 

Well it's still not here. The driver texted to say it would be delayed a bit due because he got delayed on route to his earlier delivery. Hopefully will be here soon. I'll be out driving it once it arrives.

 

Mark...you state the date when you'll bring her out AND WHERE!...you'll probably have a rather large gaggle of us show up to see her!

 

Can't make Cars and Coffee next weekend but maybe we could do a lunch somewhere the following week.

Here are some pics to hold you until then...

Congrats! That color's great. Can't wait to see her!

 

Nicely done Mark! Did it arrive yesterday?

308 on Providence Rd. before Arboretum around 1 pm Sunday.

 

Beautiful Mark

 

It did and I've already put over 130 miles on it since it arrived. It's absolutely glorious to drive and looks amazing in person. People who had seen it before I had kept telling me the pictures didn't do it justice and, even though I thought it looked just fine in pictures, they were right. In pictures thus far the metallic flakes in the paint are either not pronounced enough (making the paint appear darker than it is), or way too pronounced (making it appear way brighter, i.e. "blown out", than it is). But in person it just turned out perfectly. At some point I'll find the right lighting and take some proper photographs of it that should show it looks in person. For now it's quick snaps with the iPhone because I just want to jump in and drive it all the time

This car is going to see a LOT of miles on it

 

Great color combo. I'm glad it has contrasting colors, I've seen pics of P1's in just one color, and they look pretty bland for a million dollar plus car. I'm sure it performs ridiculously. It'll probably be hard to remain anonymous in lol.

And I'm glad to see it won't just be a garage queen. These cars are meant to be driven.

 

Mark I'll trade you a ride in a 360 for a ride in your new rocket ship.

 

Happy to do it!

 

Awesome. Based on the performance of this car I can only imagine.

I'll got further and let you drive my 308 for a ride in your car!!

Thanks. Yeah take that car and... add 285 HP (without adding any more weight) of which 176 is instant-torque electric, then improve; brakes, tires, seats, headlights, steering, suspension, aerodynamics, and chassis stiffness then lower it and add significantly more downforce. BTW, do all of this without adding any weight and make only 375 of them ever. Now you get the difference between 12C/650S and P1

But the 12C/650S is still pretty darn awesome and definitely more of a daily driver than the P1 due to higher levels of comfort and luxury. My other exotics are; 650S Spider, 458 Spider and FF.

 

Mark...that shade of blue is stunning on her! Nicely spec'd! Congrats!

 

Thanks! Can't wait for the next sunny warm day! Hopefully Friday!

 

Wow, I'd love to! I've never driven a 308 before.
