    Lucky you I must say, they are very rare indeed.
    I'm still waiting patiently for my 328.
    This thread should be interesting though.

    Cheers

    Forza Ferrari

    .....and I have a question as well(which could go in it's own thread)

    Do you think,now that you have experienced the marque ownership,will you ever be without the marque,in your garage?

    Easy answer mate. No. Even Jodi has acquired the passion. She could never understand my compulsion, until she experienced it. I'll be completely honest here. All of you in the FCA that we have met and the guys here on FChat have made ownership of a dream, an experience, not just a fad. But it's not only that. Working on the cars is such a pleasure for me. I do prefer the earlier models because of the ability to do a lot of the work yourself. It's a different type of satisfaction.

    I was without a Ferrari from 0-21 years of age, then 22-29 and 38 to 43. I've had at least one ever since, but that could always change.

    456M Feb 2015 as for not being with out one ... resounding no.
    I have owned exotics from the age of 28 but this is my first Ferrari and as long as I can drive I will own it...
    If I get hit by the Loto bus I would love the experience of picking up a new one from maranello very partial to an F12

    Bought #1 in 1987 (1980 GT4), age 25, 7 years of motor racing under my belt, scraped up every cent for it (after being talked out of a 246 for $10K less by the dealer). Sold it before going back to uni. Absolutely THE perfect age to own one - I couldn't wait to get out of bed in the morning, just to drive it!
    Bought #2 on 2009 (1985 QV) after being talked INTO it by my wife. Had a lot of enjoyment just tinkering and correcting the horrible malfeasances committed upon it by the DPO's.
    In between #1 and #2, I've owned a lot of performance cars, so it's the not holy grail that it was 30 years ago, but since I'm sniffing around for another F car, I can't see the garage not having one for some time.
