    I don’t think it’s the superior car... I just fought with my dealer to get one and then fought Ferrari to have it built the way I wanted it with custom options only to me. It was just a long process that paid off on a car I can drive easily and enjoy.

    The F50 was literally delivered to my house for a tryout and it never left. It’s the better car but doesn’t have that emotional connection like my 599 SA. When the Laferrari aperta arrives then it will take the top spot.

    Congrats on the 812. Says a lot about the car considering all the other collectibles you have in your collection.

    What are your thoughts on the directional wheels and their fitment within the wheel well?

    And let me guess, 2018 E63s to hop around town? (like myself)

    If I might ask; which color did you choose for your LaFerrari Aperta?
    The color choice was rather limited for that model...

    Congratulations for the 812 and the collection.

    Canna di Fucile and Nero Daytona are my favorite colors in this type of car.

    Smart man Get a Renntech tune and you'll love it even more. Stock the car feels like it's holding back.

    Have you ever driven an F12? If so, how would you compare the two?

    Sold the 918 and swapped the Merc for an M5?

    Net loss of one. Is the replacement for that slot on order?...

    I’m really liking it! I’m at cavalcade right now and shipped it from Los Angeles to Italy for the event. A lot of 812s here and seems like the ideal car for Cavalcade especially with all the snowy mountain drives
