    After much hand-wringing, I finally have a front engine V 12. I bought 95 Monza red 456 out of Georgia. It's great!!! I have it at Norwood's getting fluids and nits from the inspection done. Now, do I keep my 328??? Perhaps, I pick up an early two seat twelve and call myself a collector....

    Congrats!

    I'm not familiar with Monza red. Is that closer to Fiorano? Please post pics when you get them.

    Broken record...congrats on joining the club. I'm sure you will enjoy showing some of our V8 brethren exactly how fast a V12 GT car can go when called to action.

    Congrat on the new purchase. Bring the new addition to our event next time!

    Too bad Fall Rally in Dallas is already done. It would be a fun drive.

    I admire you for owning 8 & 12 Ferrari!!

    My car has finally arrived at WWoC. It took more than two weeks to truck the car from Beverly Hills to NY. I'm going to check it out tomorrow (and take some pictures). Delivery will be this Saturday (cant't wait).

    I think the 456 will be treated more kindly in history than it is now.

    I think it is one of Pininfarina's masterpieces.

    Your car is beautiful, congrats!

    Passport took two weeks to pick up my new toy and will apparently take another week to transport it from Houston to San Francisco. It is very hard to wait....

    Vik,

    I replaced the Daytona with the 456 and a Lotus Elise. Both cars will be at our upstate place. The roads up in the Catskills are not very suited for the Daytona.
