Lurkers -- come out and play

Hello everybody, I just joined!

I'm Italian, I'm a Ferrari fan, but I'm not an owner, unfortunately...

I confess: I'm a little intimidated

My passion is car design. And I love guessing the lines underneath the camouflage of the upcoming models.

These days, my obsession is all about the next V12 coupe, the upcoming 812 successor.

Now, please forgive me if I'm not writing a long presentation, but I have to go and read all the (almost) 150 pages of the "F167" thread

 

No worries our Italian friend. I live in Southern California and haven't been to the beach in years. I live about an hour and a half away. Same parallel in my eyes.

 

Hey folks.

I’m Nigel from London.

I’m hoping to soon become a Ferrari owner… currently debating between a 360, 430 or California…

I’ve always liked cars, even chucking around my ancient Honda Accord round the country roads in university! First proper sports car was an MX-5, then a Boxster then a move overseas meant another MX-5 and another string of Boxsters. Now looking for a properly fast car and can’t really get excited about a 911.

…so the answer must be Ferrari!

 

Welcome Nigel!

Out of those three I like and prefer the looks of the 360, but there's preference everywhere to support ANY of the three, and whichever you choose, share photos, we'd all like to see!

Welcome to Fchat, the best place to talk about Ferraris and many other subjects. You will find a lot of information from owners and passionate people.

 

Hello, Alex from Northern Virginia. I currently own a 458 Italia and a 570S, and eventually want to get into an F8 Spider. I'm here to list
My 458 for sale but also to stay in the community until I get the F8. I've met some really cool F car owners in the DC area and would love to continue growing that network!

 

Hey Alex! I modified your post but approved it. If you want to list a car for sale you'll need to do it in the classifieds. Welcome to FChat!

 

Hello everyone - New user here and a new owner. Finally got my first F-car (2022 Roma) yesterday. Couldn't be more excited! What an upgrade from my 991 911 C4S. Drove it almost 400 miles home. Not used to people taking photos on the road.

Hoping to connect with the community.

 

Hello Everyone,

New account though long time lurker. My name is Garion and I am a lifelong Ferrari Fan and passionate car enthusiast. I look at Ferrari in the same way I look at a Novel. With each model being its own chapter, the story is clear and continuous, cohesively tying together the past with present and evoking the emotions that only a Ferrari can. We may all have our favourite chapters for our own reasons and whether it be an SF90, 612 Scaglietti or 250 Lusso, we are all enjoying and adding to the same everlasting story.

I've been working in Sales for a Ferrari Dealer here in Australia for the past 3 years and enjoy sharing all aspects of our passion within the incredible Global Ferrari Famiglia. In particular, I really enjoy helping realise a new concept into reality and the joy that comes with seeing that dream Ferrari make its way home. Especially when you know of all of the effort and care that has poured into the concept and execution. English is yet to include the words that can accurately convey the emotion and feeling of taking the cover off someone's Dream.

Currently driving a 2016 F80 BMW M3 and ultimately hoping to own an F355 GTS and an 812 GTS amongst others in the future. Looking forward to sharing stories together and talking all things Ferrari!

 

Hello, new yesterday. Lots to learn. A privilege.

Thanks.

 

Welcome to the Forum! Congratulations on your Roma, post pictures when you can.

 

Welcome to Fchat! Here we definitely love all Ferraris.

I have been lurking on here since Oct 2005, is that a record?! Got my first Ferrari, a 2021 Roma in Rosso Corsa with Crema interior, on Saturday.

Have almost bought a Ferrari several times over the years...
Bought a TVR Chimera instead of a 328.
Bought a Aston Martin Vantage instead of a 355.
Bought a Lotus Exige instead of a 430.
So finally bought a Ferrari!

Hello everyone, My name is Miguel, joined a while back but have never posted, just lurking and reading the forums and classified. I've been a 'motohead' since my first job as a 3 year old helping in the neighborhood garage almost 60 years ago! Finally reached a place where I can complete my dream of becoming a ferrari owner! I am aspiring to obtain a F430, 458 or maybe 488, but open to any advice and recommendations. I've owned Porsche, Mercedes ect, but have also been somewhat intimidated by the 'cost of ownership".

 

Never owned a fine Ferrari, but I have heard if you can't afford three boats, don't buy one.

Good Luck luck on your amazing journey.

Drive, don't worry !

 

Congratulations! Enjoy in good health.

 

Hello all!

I have a FF, in Nero Stellato (amazing color btw) with a simple black interior! great car, can't be a Ferrari V12!

looking to cruise the forum, and maybe hit some SoCal meets.

 

Hey guys, new here but have been lurking a bit and learning a lot. Great forum, a lot of really good feedback and info here. Picked up my first Ferrari in September. 2010 458 - Location - Seattle Wa

The car was Manny Pacquiao's with 3400 miles on, spotless. I couldn't be happier with the purchase. Been a life long dream to own a Ferrari and loving it more and more.

-Ryan
