    ...we made a deposit for our first Ferrari 19 months ago. It was my wife's idea as she sought the perfect gift for my 60th. In May 2019, we travelled to the factory and had the full atelier experience. The result arrived at our dealer today.

    It's a strange time to realize what's been a many-decades dream while our economy is locked down and so many are rightfully fearful about what comes next. Nevertheless, while we can plan conception, we cannot plan what the world will be at birth. Here's the birth announcement of our 2020 Portofino!

    Grigio Titanio exterior with atelier interior of Toscano semi-aniline leather and charcoal replacing all black surfaces. Leather and charcoal in grigio scuro stitching. Our design goal is an elegant daily driver to enjoy for the foreseeable future.

    Very nice Porto. Hope you and your wife enjoy it for years to come.

    BTW: How was the sales experience at the SD dealership?

    Looks great. Difficult birth/times make us value them more:)

    enjoy in good health.

    Mine is in the queue for build. Was June/July but will come in time. No problem with that as we need to heal the people first. Plus no chance of factory collection and European road trip until probably mid 2021 at the earliest....
