    You can almost hear the garage queener's screams as they melt away. :D

    Looks great! :) She'd look beautiful, even in a monsoon.

    Did you already have an F40 or is this a new buy?

    Ah, congrats! I was going to ask if that was his but you beat me to it. I've seen it at past "Cars & Coffee" events and it's no doubt a great example. Enjoy in good health!

    I know. Darn Carfax is going to report this. (; Nice wax job!

    We found a break in this endless rain, and then it started again as soon as we got out of the trailer!

    Off to a great start I'd say. :D I do recall that thread now that you mention it.

    A new DVD series? Monsoon Ferraris - The Wetter, The Wilder! On DVD and your local streets now!

    The above photos look great and appropos as I'm listening to the howling wind and rain as I type this.

    El Oh El. Best previous owner response. Somehow I believe you're too distracted at the moment to worry about an ex now. ;) :D
