    Hey everyone,

    As you can see, I am a newb to the forum, but not to cars. I love exotic cars with a passion, but to be honest, I am learning more and more about cars everyday. One of my favorite hobbies aside from being an avid diecast collector, is to go 'car spotting'. I have a photobucket account with various pictures I've taken since the beginning of the year. I live in Minneapolis, Minnesota, the Uptown area. My favorite intersection is the Hennepin/Lake street intersection. If you see some short dude with a camera snapping your ride or trying to, it's me.


    Thanks

    Colin

    That's great!:) Welcome to Ferrarichat, you are at the right place. You can post your photo bucket site on here if you would like. Many people on here like to see others pictures.

    thanks. :) I try. I am just getting into higher end vehicles, and honestly I felt afraid to join. I was worried that people would make fun of me if I asked a "dumb question". :) I did see a 348 about a week ago, and I thought that was special. Where would be an appropriate place for me to post my exotic related pictures?

    I think that most people feel a little afraid to join at first. I was at first too:eek: But once you join (if you make a good first post):eek: you will feel much more comfortable

    The showroom section would be a great place to share your pics. Many people post their pics here. Or the 348/355 section would also be an appropriate place to. Whatever you would like.:)

    Browse the show room section. Lots of picture threads there (often by car type). Thats the main place for pics. Specific car show pics usually end up in the regional section where the show occurred...

    Not really any dumb questions, but always best to search (see top left in the blue bar) before asking a question... Your not even close to dumb questions so far!!!

    Thought you might appreciate this... This is the most often asked "dumb" question, and it always provokes a thread like this... http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/showthread.php?t=147444

    Again, welcome.
