    This is my first Ferrari. I am in love with the car. I have had a lot of nice cars but nothing compares to this. Grigio Silverstone with Charcoal interior and silver stitching. The looks, the sound and the feel of this car just leave me grinning. Also just got the new Lexus ISF...now that car is a kick in the ass as a daily driver and its almost as fast as the 430!! The stable mates also include a Renntech SL55 (625 hp) and an S55. We like horsepower around here. P.S. dont worry I dont park it under the bicycles.

    Congrats on your beautiful new toy. I also picked up my first F car last Dec. and I do agree it is a totally different experience then those other beautiful cars in your stable. Enjoy her!!!!

    If the bikes fall just blame it on the wife, that always works ;)

    PS. I hope your couch is comfortable ;)

    Congrat's on the new car... looks amazing and I'm happy you wrote what you said about the bikes!! As I was looking at the pix and that you live in Cali, I'm thinking it's just a matter of time before we get another rumbler and you've got a couple of new and unwanted hood ornaments!

    Good luck with your cars.

    Grigio for that car looks absolutly amazing, I know F are supposed to be red (especially the first one) but it looks like the only vehicules which will ever be red in this garage are the bicycles...

    Congrats!! You will love the car trust me. Grigio Silverstone wow, this is a nice color a bit understated, funny thing is we just finished one this same exact color this weekend, except different interior and top color.
