LOL, Karmavore...! Andrew, great pictures, thanks for posting... i, too, really like the white 360 Spider... The picture of the Stradale was very menacing; nice shot...
And the 575 looks Pozzi blue to me. I'm planning some dealership trips this winter. According to the NY Times, Ferrari of Long Island has a very low mileage F50 I want to go see.
Unless it was out of sight, they don't have it any more... i was there two weeks ago and it wasn't there... i did see it there a few months ago; i was SOOOOO tempted to sit in it, too... It was really beautiful... i guess finding out if they still have it is only a phone call away; good luck when you go see it- and take pictures...!
When you guys go to the dealership to you ask the salesman if you could for example sit in that 550 Maranello. What does he say? I'm always too shy to ask. zjpj , I'm will be doing the same maybe on the December the 29 or the 30.
I bought my car there, so they usually let me sit in anything I want. That's how I found out that I can fit in the 512M, but not the 512TR. I will probably buy another from them, and they know that. Always free to ask.
Being that i have no intention of buying anything from them, i don't ask... i HAVE however, in the past... i just HAD to sit in them... Two cars at FoLI and one at BoLI... Those were the only times...
Ben, no worries... we'll be down there again and we'll hook up. Didn't get a chance to meet up with Dan either. I was telling Kuzi I thought the rear bumper was for a euro spec Stradale because of the euro license plate cut-out, but checked when I got home and they all seem to have the wider cut-out whether euro or u.s. spec car. The thing sounded freakin' wicked!! Does the euro Stradale have a better/louder exhaust?
Okay so next time I go to FoQ I will open a door of a Ferrari and I will make myseft comfortable in those Ferrari seats and all that without asking. If the guy comes ''Hey you what are doing?'' Me> ''I'm sitting in a Ferrari.. whats the problem sir'' salesman > You're not allowed Me> DES told me it was okay salesman> Who's DES? Me> ...Our friend
They had a decent selection of cars, probably the most F-cars I've seen in one Ferrari dealer at one time. And the sales guy Alessandro was very professional and helpful.
LOL, John...! Let me know how it goes... If you fair well, i'll try it myself...! $158k for a 512M...? Isn't that a bit much...? i know they're awesome cars, and i know they're 6 figures, but i didn't know they were that high...
Hi Andrew - From everything I've read, the US exhaust is the same as the Euro exhaust on the CS. Gary
Thanks Gary! Steve Harris imports may be able to help you out on that 360 6spd. check their website... www.ferrarisales.com. ask for sean, kuzi knows him fairly well. best of luck.
Faisal- you have good taste, blue with white/creame interior is my favrouite combination on the F355! It is what I would get, of course, the F355 would then have to be my second Ferrari, as the first I want to be classic Red/Tan, aaagh! That 512M is speaking to you, how many times in life to you get a second chance at something like this?! Hopefully it will one day grace your garage. (and then you'll have to hunt down the first TR made as well Best! Ben.
