    What!!!! A F40 , I've never seen it and I have lived her for about 20 years in Milwaukee. I have a 308 GTSi and I know of 1 other guy with one(308) and I think I saw one more. I also know of a guy who I think just took delivery of a New 360 Spyder, Red. I say that because I see him driving it around a lot in some of my old places that I used to drive, now I just see him on my commute. I came with in half-car distance of it. So it was pretty cool.

    Hey Dreamof-f40,

    I've met both 575Mike and Cooly0 (who all ready responded to your post) - Great guys and beautiful F cars. As often as possible, I run around New Berlin in a black 328. Additionally, I've seen a red 328 in downtown Milwaukee, but didn't get a chance to meet the owner.

    Hey,you guys are all always welcome to join in on our drives. We are in the Chicago area,but that's only an Hour drive from Milwaukee. (Less from Kenosha)

    We have a great group of folks who get together regularly for drives all around the Midwest area. We had a really nice drive up and into South Eastern Wisconsin a couple Months Back. We met at the Lake Forest Oasis on I-94,and drove various roads up into Wisconsin. The,took some Country Back Roads,and was able to go as fast as we wanted to. 575Mike was there,too. We had about 10 Ferrari's,and 2 Corvettes. Ended up at Lake Lawn Inn at Lake Delaven for Brunch. I took HWY50 all the way back to I-94,then South.(Home) Nice Drive!!

    I drive my 308 up to The "Brat Stop" on HWY 50 once in awhile for Lunch. (45 minutes from my door in Oakbrook Terrace,Il. which is about 18 miles West of Downtown Chicago. Right to the door of the Brat Stop. That's in good moving traffic,and not always adhering to the posted speed limits...:) ) Or,up to Greenfield to visit my GrandFather. So,it's not a far drive either way. And,we'd love to have you guys join us in our drives,too.


    Just check our "Chicago Site" here on FChat. Or,our Ferrari Owners Club Website at: www.focmidwest.com We'd love to have you join if you're interested,too. Membership is not required to join in our drives. But,there are many appealing "Perks" of Membership....

    We are planning a drive on August 1st. Starting out in Chicago,and cruising up along The Famous "Lake Shore Drive" for Photo Ops and such. Then,continuing up along the North Shore for Brunch. You can take it from there,either continuing up along the North Shore,(Sheridan road) or,over to I-94 home. Either way,we'd love to have you all join us!

    Just let us know on the "Chicago Site" if you want to join in....

    Battman,

    Please wave if you see a yellow Rx-7 drive by. I have seen you on hwy 100 before. I hope to pick up a Yellow F355 soon. But can do it before I sell the rx7. If you wanna go for some run for ice cream. We have close to a dozen cars out to get ice cream and sometimes twisty road run. We do not have a Fcar yet. We have 3 NSXs 3 Rx7 3 Supras, some EVO, S2000, etc. Come by and say hi. We always meet at Kopps on Bluemound Rd at 6:00pm take out around 6:30pm if it does not rain.

    Ken

    Hello All: I'm a new member in New Berlin with a grigio 328 which I have owned for 8 years. I have it serviced at Reina. They have told me there are about 500 Ferrari's in this area. They are a rare sight on the road however unlike South Florida where they are seen regularly.

    Sounds good, may be Mike 575 will join us then. I have spotted his spyder around New Berlin before. I am not too far from West Allis neither, just a stone throw away
