    Congrats! Looks great, so this is the car that some other guy on here was so upset about not getting, huh?

    At least you know that if you decide you don't want it, there's someone else who really really does.

    HEy, you have to go into your profile and update "Personal Ferraris Owned". Its a great feeling when you do and then update the QV register on line with your car info. Just google QV register.

    Thank you for your comments. Viper I do not think this is the car, if it is I was not aware of the conflict. Stevel thank you for reminding me to update my profile and the QV owners site will do today.

    This is the car. There was a "cash buyer" on this site that wanted to fly in and look at Matts car without an accepted offer first or even making an offer. During the interim, I guess you actually made an offer on the car that was accepted. Nothing wrong on yours or Matts side. Simply "you snooze, you lose...."

    Me too! Just bought #41695 from a fellow f-chat member. Needs a little work to be brought back to her former glory, but she'll get there eventually. Congrats on your purchase as well!

    Very, very nice cars both of them. I love the 308, maybe when I save some more money I'll get one.

    Great cars guys. Gotta admit I was close to going for the one in Louisville. Seems like a terrific example. But fiancee is already a little tweaked that she has to keep her Jeep outside cuz of Francesca and Isabella, lol.

    In process myself of putting one right again. It just won 2nd place in a show and shine, so I guess we are heading in the right direction.

    It is currently Rosso Rubino. I believe it was originally Rosso Corsa from the factory.

    Thanks Mark,
    What I liked best about Matt's car are the crema seats with the red piping. I think it is a great combo with the red exterior. I am suprised you do not see this combo more often.
