    Well...the waiting is over. Yesterday the transport dropped off my first experience into the world of Ferrari. A 1999 355 Spider F1. It has 14k miles and is pretty darn clean. It just went thru the 30k/clutch service last week.I bought it sight unseen from Rob at Naples Motorsport. He did a nice job relaying to me it's condition. No sticky interior pieces, no leather shrinkage. My first inspection uncovered only a couple chips in the front bumper cover and some wear on the drivers bolster. Not sure how I will deal with those at this point but right now I'm just basking in the red "glow". Thanks to all on this board. I have certainly learned a bunch about my car and Ferrari's in general.

    Gorgeous car!

    Its a shame though that, from the pictures, it looks like winter is upon you (as it is me).

    Enjoy the last few days! Ill be the longest winter ever.

    Thanks everyone. She is beautiful and....yes....it will be a long winter. But I'm stocking up on upgrades (cats/exhaust and Challenge grill) and detailing products to keep me busy. We'll certainly be ready for springtime.

    The 348 has a brotherhood. The 355's well ... that's kinda like a sisterhood.
    :) :) Sorry couldn't resist.
