    Great car. Steven was wrong. The Ferrari isn't going to accept the rest of your saving. You'll also need a small note, say equal to your net earning for the next, say 20 years.

    Enjoy, its worth it.

    Once you have given in to the dark side, you can never turn back! My personal addiction started over 25 years ago with a 308. It has grown over time and is now out of control. Please do not help me!

    The 89 328 is one of the best cars ever built by Ferrari. I had one and it was fantastic! You have made a great choice. Enjoy!!!!

    I appreciate all the advice & help you guys have given me. It’s hard to make this commitment but easy to make a decision to live large. I work at a level one trauma center & take the pictures. This is a good thing I do but I question everything. Ahhhhh, Yeahhhhh, this is right!

    The "dark side"? My RX7s rocks SCCA track issues. I always win. This is different. Now I'm driving a Ferrari.

    Karen,
    Congratulations... it's a beauty... the 1989 328 is arguably one of the most "reliable" ferraris out there! Definitely lots of fun to drive!

    Enjoy it in good health.

    Karen -

    Outstanding choice!!! Trust me, your career, family, social life, etc. are about to take backseat to the Ferrari. Everything in your life will begin to revolve around the car. It's a disease, and I think the owners on the board will agree, THERE IS NO CURE.

    Review this post in 6 months. If you're not completely addicted, I'll be a monkey's uncle.

    Have fun !!

    -Daniel
