    how many of you guys, never had a ride in a Ferrari? I only have been seated in a 456... not bad.
    I have been in Maranello last month, so many Ferraris but not even one Ferrari taxi!

    Not an owner, YET--perhaps when I get my house remodeled. A great many of the members here do own cars and seem to have a very cool attitude. I suspect that if you hung out at a few events, you'd get your first ride.

    What did you think of the museum?I thought it was a disappointment, yet I had to see what it was about.

    About the museum, i think that is a good museum but you have to be lucky because the cars change often and when i have go there, there was only a 550 Maranello near the video room.I have seem the pictures in the prospect they gave me and in the photo is fool of Zagato Ferraris.

    I've had offers from richard (gallardo), robert (modena), and paul (CS if I ever go to Boston) ... and I'm sure that whenever I FINALLY get to hang out with richard and robert some of their friends will also give me rides... I think Jeff is one with the 550 and John with the Diablo and 360.
    So, pretty much NONE right now and I've missed at least 5 opportunities :(
    In fact I've never even sat in one, only touched a Modena and that's the only Ferrari I've ever come into contact with
    Hopefully when I come back for Thanksgiving break or Christmas or next summer :(

    Yeah though, tons of nice guys on here! :) Just ask around in your regional forum and I'm sure people would gladly offer you rides.

    I've only seen 355s, 360s, 550s and a Mondial before, it was at a track event so I could actually touch the cars... but I didn't (didn't want to cause any scratches and whatnot). And that of course means, I've never even sat in one before. ):

    Not driven an Fcar yet but have been lucky enough to passenger in some very nice exotics in the past couple of years. Just get out to events, use the forums to see what is coming up in your area and I am sure that some of the very kind owners on these boards will help you out!

    All of these were courtesy of generous FChatters.

    I've never had a ride in a Ferrari before or even sat in one. I have sat in a CGT a couple times before though. Its not a Ferrari but its something.
