    I think the FF would be fine. Really. It for sure has an unique design, but it is (IMO) less "in your face" than a 458 or even 430 simply because I think people expect a Ferrari to look like those.

    I have seriously thought that I might, in the next 2-3 years, consider a FF as a daily. Really have. However, I love my Cayenne Turbo (and its a 1/3 of the cost). I would probably just keep one of those and then a Cali/458/whatever as a third car.

    Post pics and impressions. Excited to see what you think.

    Any idea on order/delivery timeframe?

    Maybe, you're right, Jason. My Porsche just seems to fly under the radar better, which is ironic given that I paid $109K for the 993TT when it was 3 years old and $125K for the 6-year-old F430. Minimal difference.

    I guess my sensitivity about the FF stems from the fact that it costs much more than most Kentuckians' homes. Maybe, debadge it? ;)

    Or, move into it?

    I think you would be fine without shields maybe, but keep the badge. Although, I am a shields fan.

    Spoke with Rich at Ferrari of New England (RDG here): my FF is in production! Woohoo!

    I suppose they have to get FFogeys like me out of the way and start building F12s.

    Start the music!

    Congratulations, Robert. Look forward to seeing the pics when you get it. The FF is a marvelous, game changing machine.

    Damn the pics, the Keeneland spring meet is as good an excuse as any for a long drive to Ky. We'll go for a spin.

    For sure, Robert. It's looking to be a beautiful Spring. We could hook up with Jason, and we'd have an FF, Cali, 612, and 430. Nice variety.

    Congrats Robert. You will not be disappointed. It really is an amazing Ferrari. As Bundy said...game changer for sure. It's the keys we reach for first when my girls say "let's go for a ride Papa". It's fun factor/practicality is unmatched in a modern day sportscar.

    I saw the FF today for the first time in the flesh. spent some time checking it out, what a stunning car. I have been a Ferrari owner for quite a while and loved it up close. pictures do not do justice as to the lines and how it looks next to it in person.
