    Just got this last week. Very excited...92 MY. It feels so good driving a 3 pedal ferrari! I have been snooping around this forum for a while now and wanted to thank you folks for some great advice and education. Car is sound mechanically and in great shape.
    Saw a report from cavallino judges of 96 points in the paperwork!
    Drove it for the first time yest. Its amaaazing!! much more visceral feel to it compared to the 612 ..with very good handling and equally fast!!

    Congrats.!!!

    What mileage on her??

    If someone blindfolded me and put me in your car...I could not tell it from mine..!

    That would be a fun thing to try between a testa and a TR, what would you feel for first..inside??...seats?..instrument console??


    I rarely endorse any commercial product, however this stuff works too too good on Ferrari single stage paint...it will also tell you which paint is original and which is not.
    its available in most stores

    inevitably people will ask...
    Did you pay above or below 200 G's?

    Under 200k??..have you been following the market? Lol
    Yes.. bought it to drive it. I was looking for a "used'' and well maintained car. Certainly not for storage in the garage..

    I think they were teasing about that...still, given the current market, I would rate the 512Tr a real "keeper" at any number

    No it did not. Only feels heavy for parking jobs. At speed it is just fine.

    Congratulations! That looks like the car I saw at Competizione the other day. In fact, if I'm not mistaken, that's their shop in the background in the top right pic.

    I have a 512TR too, and love it more each time I drive it!

    Are you a member of the FCA? The local chapter is pretty active, and in fact we have a big weekend event coming up this month in WV. PM me for details if you're interested.
