    Ok, so I have a dear associate and he is looking for a ferrari, preferably before summer is over. His price range is between $00,000-$80,000. He knows maintenece will cost and is willing to take it, He prefers manual over F1 and really wants a 456M or a Testarossa however any other Ferrari in his price range he will take, the mileage has to be under 40K. NO AUTOMATICS!!! Guys, I'm new here and I'm just trying to help a friend out. I figured posting on here I'm sure to get good stuff. If this counts as spamming somebody please let me know and I will remove immediately. But otherwise I would like suggestions, only serious offers and he lives in the Atlanta area. Thanks.....

    Tell him to look at the 550 - it is in the price range, manual, will be much less to maintain than a Testarossa, and there are a lot of good deals out there.

    I have no affiliation with Ferrari of Atlanta, but have been very happy working with Dan Burris there ([email protected]). If you have your friend contact Dan and tell him what he's looking for, I bet he can find him a car or two.

    Wow in less than a week your friend goes from a TR or a 456M to a 550M just at the suggestion of one person on F-chat. Then WE narrowed it down to what HE wants. You obviously have a great influence over your friend for you to decide with him on what he is going to buy. Do you think you could get him to buy me a 16M? :D

    Yea, its weird because he came to me and said, "I think I want a ferrari?" So I said, well what do you want? And he just tells me what he wants, At 2:00am last night he called and said, I changed my mind, "help me look" for a 550M instead of a TR or 456. So, its kind of my fault because I TOLD HIM, that I would do all his research so when it came time he could just write the check and be off. But, thats what friends are for right. Who knows, I might get to drive it but atleast a ride would be nice. But anyways, back to the topic. He wants the criteria ^ so any sellers?

    If he calls you at 2:00 am and you don't mind you are even a better friend than I thought. If a friend calls me at 2:00 am it better be an emergency. Sorry but I don't know of any 550M's for sale right now. I will leave you to the regularly scheduled program now. :)

    Unless "around 80" includes numbers beginning with a 5...

    Does attorneysspecial = special needs? Because if you think you will get 80 then you have a problem with perception of the world. (And the research ability.)
