    Perfect GTO. Another great car into your amazing collection. That said, I can't believe you let the 550B go! It will be interesting to see if the F12 stays now that a GTO is in the garage...

    Congrats.

    (I guess I'll see your 550B and Scud here at the dealer shortly...they can keep my CS company if it hasn't sold by then)

    Letting the Barchetta go was tuff decision but I decided I would rather have the GTO that plus I recently bought another topless car..

    thanks interesting enough I was out in scottsdale for the auctions in January and one of my normal stops is the Penske Ferrari dealership but for what ever reason I didn't make the stop this trip could have cut a few weeks off this deal.. but as I said I did see it not long before at FOW at the time they had 3 or 4 GTOs for sale and this was the one I would have gotten but I guess timing wasn't right..so here it is.

    Congratulations. I was also looking at the Scottsdale car, but didn't get there in time. I just purchased a 300 mile Rossi Fuoco 599 GTO. Can't wait to get it.

    congrats, Larry, though I'd bet that some years from now you will not have forgotten the barchetta

    Congratulations.

    Letting the other two cars go must have been very tough but the thrill that is the GTO will compensate. Few cars are as raw as the GTO is.

    Fewer still sound as crazy when down changing from 3rd to 2nd....

    selling the barchetta was a tough decission but it came to one or the other .. and after having the B for a while I realized the GTO would be more my style . Now I still have a very nice 550 and my 550 is a great car that I will not be selling..

    Congratulations guys. A superb choice.

    Welcome to its unmistakable snarl, the insanity of its bark, the brutality of its gearshift as you hit the red line. Welcome to the exquisite beauty of its body which exudes aggression and elegance in equal measure. Welcome to one of the finest front V12s ever made.

    Larry didn't mean to hijack your thread. Love your car, and I didn't act fast enough.

    Thank you everyone for the comments. I should get in a couple of weeks when I'm back in town.

    Your car has thick spokes wheels. That's an added value.
