    Yesterday, just hours after getting back to town from the Brazilian GP, I get THE call I've been waiting for: "This is Ed from Intercity Lines. I'll be there with your Ferrari in a couple hours." Wow! After years of dreaming and solid effort, this is real! And it's perfect timing!

    I will post more about the car and my driving impressions soon. I just wanted to say that it has been a very challenging goal, and I'm ecstatic that I finally got my 360, and a near perfect one too! It's absolutely stunning in person, and a blast to drive.

    This has been the best month of my life, and I hit many of my life goals in a short time! I got to do Euro Delivery on my new BMW 335i (turbo coupe). I made it to Nurburgring, where I broke my target lap time by over 1 minute. I travelled to about 9 countries, where I met tons of great people and saw many new things, and finally I got to see Michael's very last race. And now the 360! :) I feel like life is complete now. I am ready to relax and take it easy for a while before setting any more goals. Honestly, I do not know that I would have any other major goals after this, other than continuing to travel the world. I feel like I am done!

    Thanks to everyone who has helped me, by giving me encouragement or information along the way: Gary (CDM), RayJohns, Testacojones.

    A HUGE thanks to Tolga and to Jack(LA). And of course to Ferrari. Life wouldn't be quite as exciting without you around.

    Car looks absolutely great.

    Now, send one of your keys to Cavallino models and have them paint it to match your color. You'll be glad you did.

    Good luck with the car.
