    Hi All,

    First thread post! New to Fchat but I wanted to let everyone know about my first experience purchasing and taking delivery of Ferrari 360!

    I purchased this beauty from a fellow Fchat Member as it was advertised in the classified adds here. Great seller...easy transaction but he lives in the sunshine state and I’m in cold northeast Pennsylvania. I received my vehicle via carrier today...in the snow ❄️ ☃️. I couldn’t be more happier and excited...she is safe in the garage now and covered since 4-8” are coming tonight ‍♂️.

    Welcome everyone and I am so happy to be apart of this enthusiastic forum and group of people that share the same interests as I do!

    Regards,

    Nate

    Pics below! cheers

    Congrats Nate! Welcome to our little club. Pretty soon you'll be able to take her out. In the meantime keep her on a battery tender.

    Congrats! I'm from State College, PA and drive down via 84 and 81 from here. Maybe I could stop by some time? Plan to take the Giulia with my new winter set after President's Day for school vacation week. Let me know if you are free! :)

    John K,

    I would love to meet up with you anytime you are down this way. I’m in the coal region. I’m about 1hr 45 from state college. Giulia sounds real nice. I just looked at them recently when buying an suv. PM for my number and maybe we can set something up...that would be great!

    Take care,

    Nate

    You'll need to do the gearbox rear mount soon as your tailpipes are hanging really low, sir. Before they start to scrape the bumper or heating / melting paint from it. Common and well known issue.

    Have used them a couple times and they are great. Sometimes pickup can take while but very professional and do great work.

    Yes... very happy with intercity transport. Very professional driver and great communication and updates. Only slight complaint was it took two weeks for pickup after scheduling. Likely weather played a role in this though. Thanks Nate

    Thank you Billy...I will definitely mention it to my shop where I am having service performed. Scuderia Performante. I appreciate you paying close attention to an issue that can cost me more in the end! Regards Nate

    Heres the normal / proper position of tailpipes after new "gearbox rear mount". Relatively easy and inexpensive job, especially when your shop must be familiar with 360's.
