    I know this is a massive stretch, but in case there is someone willing...


    I do hope to someday join the club of Ferrari ownership, but as for now I have yet even go for a ride in a Ferrari, or any other notable supercar for that matter. And as a die-hard gear head/exotic car lover, I would love the opportunity to experience one of there rolling pieces of art, even if for a short trip.

    So if there is anyone on here that would be willing to share their passion for cars with me and my passion for them, please let me know how or what I can do to make it happen. I would be eternally grateful.

    *note: If there is anyone that would like to come up to VT and enjoy your Ferrari on some of our great driving roads, I can help you plan a route that is both scenic and fun for a driver, including a locals tips for great places to hit, be it restaurants tucked away, out of the main flow of tourism, to the most aggressive roads, to the best Hotels/suites to spend a night at.

    Thanks all,

    Matt

    I remember this same exact message somewhere else and Joey said he would hook you up. Whatever happened to that?

    Just to let you know there is a new exotic rental place open in Worcester area and I would be happy to forward you to them.

    back in july '06 there was a charity Ferrari show here in Burlington, and if you donated $100, you got to be given a ride in any one of the cars being shown. There was an F40, as well as many nice examples "more common Ferrari's".

    Why, for the love of all that is holy, did I not drop $100 for a ride in an F40? I kick myself so friggin hard for that...

    I too would like the info for the rental place; though I'm presuming they, like most, require you to be at least 25?

    according to gotham dream cars website:

    Drivers between 21 - 25 may rent luxury/premium vehicles (Aston Martin, Bentley, Maserati, Range Rover and the Mercedes S550) and certain other exotic vehicles if they meet a more stringent background / driving record check.

    their rates:

    I gotta say, their Northeast inventory has dried up significantly. Everything went to Miami. Can't say that is a shock either, but just unfortunate.

    I also notice they don't have the Saleen on the list either.

    Shifting cars down to Miami following the flow of people is good business sense.
    Most of their cars are back now. They are never for want of something luscious to drive. I believe they just took delivery of a 599.

    As to the Saleen - yes, it left their fleet. Noah never lets things go stale :)
