Awesome color and wheel combination! As for being an average guy... If for nothing else, getting people to get these fine cars out on the roads rather than cloistered away in dark garages or out-of-the-way dealerships improves the very appearances of our streets.

Ferrari's are rolling art, after all. Art is to be seen and enjoyed by all, owners and admirers alike. I don't care if Joe Average makes $30,000 or $30 Million per year...but I'd prefer that in either case that he drives something that improves the looks of our roads.

Warren Buffett can make and spend money by the armload, but he drives a clunker pickup that detracts from the looks of Nebraska roads. That sort of aesthetic disrespect for our environment is deplorable, especially for someone of means. He may be wealthy, but he'll die without knowing beauty...a waste.

The opposite side of the spectrum might be the military kid who goes on a 6 month submarine cruise where he **can't** spend any money...comes home and pays cash for a pretty Ferrari Mondial...reads F-chat...does his own maintenance...and enjoys the beauty of the marque each day.

That kid is **alive** in a way that Warren Buffett will never know. His world is prettier than Buffett will ever experience. More fun, too.

I want to see more of those kids and fewer of the rich types who disdain beauty in their lives. Do you want more Leona Helmsley's in this world, or more Xzibit's?!

Who is having more fun?!

Very well stated, sir! I have often had the same feelings, but probably couldn't put it into words so eloquently.

Let me start by saying that Jeff (carguy) has always there for anyone who owns a TR. He took the time to answer all my questions when i bought my 88.5 red/tan TR. Not too many guys would. I appreciate it a lot.

Anyway CONGRATULATIONS......the car looks great. 2 Trs in the driveway is a treat.........

I am happy for you Jeff.............good luck and thanx for being a friend.
