    It is late, I've had a few just to calm my nerves. Today was the day I got my black/tan 95 355B 6-spd w/25k. I seriously have tears in my eyes as I write this, as I know my late Italian grandfather is smiling down on me with loads of approval.
    Starting at the age of 4, I've dreamed of owning a Ferrari, I had my room plastered with Italian supercar posters, and I have finally achieved my version of the American dream. Not in my wildest dreams did I ever think a guy like me could purchase a fast and beautiful Ferrari before the age of 30. In the words of Homer J. Simpson eating a stick of butter wrapped in a maple syrup- soaked waffle, aarghlaaaarllgghhhhllaarrrllllllllbarghhllllllhahrrrrlllllarggllbarglllllllllllaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh
    Thanks to everyone on F-chat, it took a year of thread-scrutinizing to get up the cajones to buy!!! It was too dark to shoot pics, but I will post some tomorrow! The car is in the 355 registry already.
    P.S. After driving the car home, I was talking to my cousin on the phone about the car, and being so excited I actually sh*t my pants. I'm not kidding,
    it was gross. It happened AGAIN when my girlfriend was home, so if you don't believe me, PM me and I'll have her call you. Sorry moderators/everyone for being graphic, but I feel it is crucial to express my elation with Ferrari ownership. Thanks again!!!!

    I had to take a train to get my other car from the dealership, it took some time and just now have pics ready.
    I would like to clarify, I did NOT drop an accidental load in the car (Thank God!!!). It was on my couch.
    Anyone want to come over and watch TV? lol Fo' real, I will be shooting better shots in the next couple of days
    and will post more soon.
    Marcello, yes it was that one. I love it!

    Congrats!

    Depending on where you are in the Bay Area, some of us meet up on Saturday mornings at Santana Row, usually between 9:30am - 11am. See the NorCal section. :)

    Fantastic car! Have fun driving it. The Bay Area Fchatters seem like a fantastic bunch - I've met a few of them in the past. You should get to participate in a lot of good group runs.
