    Hey,

    I'll start off with a little about myself. I'm a 15 year old guy from Virginia, I have a passion for cars, Ferrari's especially. My dad owns a Porsche Boxster S, fun car. A couple weeks ago we drove a 348 TS and decided that's what we wanted next. Now we are actively looking at 348's. My parents know I will be posting here, I asked them first.

    Live about 5 minutes from Ferrari of Washington, my parents have been taking me there ever since I was 10. That's pretty much it. :)

    I was just wondering if I could hang around and learn some more about Ferrari's, that alright with you all?

    Thanks, that's what I plan on doing.

    Thanks, that was a post to go by. :)

    Search function is a great tool, already found lots of my answers.

    I've been just browsing the site for a week or so, I guess there isn't a search tab for guests.

    Since your dad has good taste and he likes convertibles I would suggest looking at a spider they come with all the updated bells and whistles and 20 hp more than the ts plus it's jaw dropping I might be a little bias...:D here is a look :cool:

    Ps watch out for that Pap fellow he is on the FBI most wanted list

    yeah, you should go to the reston town center on april 13th for the spring thaw. You'll see a great collection of Ferraris. I'm totally bummed I'm going to have to miss it for family obligation reasons.

    348 is a great car. I had a boxster and a 03 996. Both great cars, but none can match the feel of the Ferrari

    Thanks for the welcome everyone, look forward to seeing you around. I'll try to get to some of the events, I won't be able to make the Reston one because I will be out of town.

    Welcome to the group. It's good to see that you have picked the correct Ferrari model for your first purchase - or your dad's. Be forewarned, try to avoid the pictures of PAP, they could scar you for life.
