    Bought a 1990 TR couple weeks ago and took delivery today. Drove about 75 miles this afternoon. What an enjoyable car to drive. Big thanks to the guys at FoH, Joe, Ryan and Tony.
    Haven't smiled this much while driving in a long time. Can't wait it get more seat time.

    Hello, welcome to the Club! Your new Testarossa looks awesome! You should look into your local FCA Club to socialise with other Ferrari owners. Ferraris are more fun when you run with the pack!

    P.S. Your neighbors are already jealous!

    Welcome to Testarossa ownership! I have had my 89 white/white for the last 1.5 years. Can't stop looking at the car and LOVE driving it. Do you have factory exhaust? The car sounds so amazing when it's opened up a bit! I have high flow cats and a custom exhaust. Highly recommend a little more sound than factory. 😀[​IMG]

    Congrats! She is a beauty
    I like how you fly inverted...keeping up international relations and all:)
    I second the exhaust opinion. Gives her the voice to go with the looks.
    Many years of enjoyment

    Thanks everyone. It's just a really cool car. Still with stock exhaust. Don't want it to be too loud. Was thinking Tubi but any other recs are welcome.

    Congratulations on acquiring an 80's dream. I like the original styling of the car with the lower black trim on the sides and front bumper, very beautiful and with the years it will age gracefully.

    Radio??? :) You can do a search for tr exhausts. I am sure there are enough threads that will give you lots of options. Congrats on the new TR!!!

    I think we finally figured out why the differentials are failing. Who knew the tires were this sticky that they would hold on even upside down? LOL
