    My Mongoose Supergoose and my Fuji 12 speed. :) How may other people can say their first car was a Ferrari? ;) Of course it has been all Chevy's, Jeep's and VW's since then, but soon we will have another of Enzo kids adopted and in the driveway. :D

    When we got the Testarossa - we had (and kept for a couple years) -

    1995 Corvette ZR-1
    1996 Porsche 993 Targa
    2004 Z06 Corvette

    Now the Corvettes are both gone and replaced by 2005 997 Porsche and 1995 Rolls Royce Silver Dawn.

    Nice to see that almost everybody posting on this had some very interesting machinery other than Ferrari.

    Impressive loyalty! I had a Fiat X1/9 in my past as well.

    Not sure how to answer - I've always had a driver and one or more fun cars, so there's not a definite "lineage".

    The last two cars that were in the Ferrari (non-daily driver) garage space were:

    Porsche 993 cab
    Merc SLK

    Like others, I have been lucky enough to have a daily driver and a fun car. So the fun car thread goes like this:

    1973 Mach 1 - bought in 1976 when I was 16 (OK this was the only car then) and still own
    College and Graduate school intervened for too many years

    86 Fiero

    99 Miata 10th Anniv (Still own and most fun car ever)

    88 TR
     
  22. BLAMPEE

    BLAMPEE Man Card Status: Never Issued

    I put $5k down on a yellow 2002 NSX, sight unseen. The Acura dealership in Ohio (I'm in ORegon) was absolute a-holes in not honoring their prior verbal agreements (crap you would expect when buying a used Hyundai, NOT a $55k exotic!) so I pulled it. Then I found La Bella. And I am so glad I bought her instead of the NSX!!!!!
