    Guys, I had a great experience and I owe a thank you to Chris at www.dreamcarwest.com.

    A few weeks ago, when we went to the 1199 event, I thought it might be a treat to take a Ferrari out for the night......so I called Chris and he suggested I take out out his 360 Spider....what a great time. I suprise the girlfriend at work by picking her up in the red spider. We then went home and changed clothes and met up with Jon, Steve, Doc B, Leon, and BOY WAS IT FUN TO FINALLY BE BEHIND THE WHEEL AND NOT A PASSENGER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    All in all, it was a great experience. The car ran great, was clean, and very well maintain. I know there are many people on fchat who don't have Fcars.....if you ever want to have a great experience and a very reasonable price, call Chris. He is super cool and a really nice guy. I would highly suggest his service if you were ever looking into an renting an exotic.

    It was also very fun to see the other people's reaction....all the camera phones that come out, people waving, trying to race you...etc. I know that I have seen this time and time again, it was just different when you are driving the car. You could really get used to driving a Ferrari.....:). All in all, is was a blast, a real treat and very motivating.

    Sounds like fun. I don't even see that car listed on their website. Did he let you use his personal car?

    oopps...
    http://www.dreamcarswest.com/ is the proper link..... thanks J, for pointing that out...

    It was a great time...as a matter of fact, my dad had a friend in town from detroit who had never seen a Ferrari close up...guy worked for Ford for 45 years.....took him for a little ride and it really made his day. It is amazing what these cars do. They truly do embody passion.

    I have been in plenty of cars...all sorts, however, driving is a whole new experience. I would highly suggest splurging for a day or weekend.....I am considering getting one for Father's day.....I was just a blast.

    Congrats D! It's about time you got behind the wheel. :cool:

    +1 for http://www.dreamcarswest.com/ Chris is one of the nicest people I've ever met. I took out his Spider for a few days a couple months ago, and it was the time of my life!!

    Only downside are the withdrawals after you return it.:D
