    A little history, I've been a car fanatic for as long as I can remember. My first Ferrari that I truly found myself lusting after is the F40 and Testarossa. Fast forward to today, I knew I wanted a Scuderia for quite some time now. I passed up a chance to get the new 458 for the Scuderia. I was planning to get one this fall but after going on a 16M/Scuderia/CS drive recently and driving both the Scuderia and 16M that was all it took for me to decide that I wanted one right away. So, that following morning with Kuzi and h20skier's help, I searched all over for the perfect Scuderia. I found a couple but quickly narrowed it down to the ONE sitting at Ferrari of Fort Lauderdale. After a few quick negotiations, the car was MINE! I had to wait a while for a shipper because they were all over in Arizona for the Barrett Jackson auction. After what seemed like a long wait, we finally found a shipper. The shipper got my car from Ferrari of Fort Lauderdale in about 10 days which is pretty fast, I thought.

    I also wanted to give a huge props to Alan Wood of Wizard Motorsports. He did a great job delivering my Scuderia in one piece in a timely manner coming all the way from the other side of the country. He's as big a motorhead as they come! Shortly before he left, he asked if was planning to DRIVE mine, not park it in the garage like most folks with a wink. If anyone is looking for a shipper, I highly recommend Alan! I also wanted to thank stokpro for coming out with me to take delivery too.

    This is the first yellow Scuderia in Washington and possibly the only one for a while.

    Congrats atomic! I remember reading over on 6speed about when you picked up your cobalt 997TT a couple of years ago, and now a Scud! You really have a great taste in cars! I've always liked your posts and I hope you're going to give us a lengthy report about the Ferrari as well?

    Count on it...once I finally get her home from the shop. She's having a couple of things done to her. Clear bra, detail, larger CF paddles, skid plate, cavallino on gas flap, lowering, and exhaust bypass.

    I can take it back even further... remember you from M5board (my handle is moopz) with your blue E39 with tricolor stripe on the diffuser. I actually got a small poster printed from a pic you posted of that car. Interesting how tastes evolve! I notice need4spd is on here too.

    I'm not a big fan of yellow F cars, but this is stunning! Congrats.

    I remember reading about your cobalt 911. I love that color.

    Next time I am up to meet with Nintendo or Microsoft I just might ping you in advance to come look at that fantastic Scud.
