    Today I'm trading in the 575M for the silver CS at FoS. I'm scheduled to pick it up sometime this afternoon if I can get out of here in time. The Maranello has been a great car........and has served its purpose well. However, after driving Albert's CS a few months back, I could not believe how much different the CS was. A totally different beast than a 360 Modena, albiet from the same family. The look might be similar, but thats where the similarities end!! This vehicle is brand new with only delivery miles on it. Some of you have probably already seen it at FoS. Its being prepped as I type. I'll post some pics later. I have ants in my pants! :)

    kuzi - i'd love to hear some "compare and contrast" comments on the two cars.

    in theory, my CS will be here next week and the 550 is leaving then.

    ENJOY!

    Just got back from a "wicked" jaunt thru rush hour traffic............OMG!!
    I have too much adrenaline flowing right now to compose any meaningful words. Let me sit back and let it sink in a little first. I'm not exaggerating when I say that this is perhaps the "BEST"...........and I mean "BEST" sports car I have ever driven.............And short of the Hyper Exotics, I've driven them all! In short, Doody, the 550/575 can't hold a candle to the CS as far as the fun quotient goes..............not even close. Driving the CS is like taking an amusement park ride everytime you hit the throttle. So when I compose myself, I'll give a better synopsis. Now I'll just go and admire her lines.........................................My poor spyder is going to be jealous as hell. :)

    So we have four (five?) CS's in the group now if I am not mistaken.

    I would love to get the audio of all four in a row taking off together on one of our drives. The sound is incredulous from one!

    SIX CS's in one group! We need to get some high rez group photos I think.

    Maybe meet at the "Big Coffee Pot" for a session:p
