    Would like to know? Anyone actually own a Ferrari, or any exotic there?

    Is it hard to get seriviced? I remeber reading a story on the internet once about a man owning a Merc. S class, and whatever service he needed, he had to fly-in a mechanic from California, or someplace like that.

    About six Ferraris in Anchorage/Eagle River, maybe 12 in the state. Two or three shops can do basic service. A friend of mine with a 360 does all of his own work. Many Porsches, some Lambos, some Panteras, many Corvettes, some old Jags. There are the British Sports Car Club of Alaska, the Porsche Club of Alaska, and the Antique Club with many 40's and 50's cars.

    For my major in 4 years, I have two mechanics who want to come up and fish while they do the service. Seems like a fair trade.

    First snow last weekend, so it is put up for now.

    The Ferrari dealership in Fairbanks charges $10 to look at the cars. . . :)

    I'm still here.

    Snow? What snow? We've got about an inch of frost. Was 5 above zero F this morning, not good weather for driving with the top down.

    I visit Alaska quite a bit! I know that doesn't count, but I'm amazed at how many H1 Hummers are for sale in a city as small as Anchorage.


    OT: This thread makes me think of fishing...
