    I was just talking to local F-guys that is there anyone on F-chat who owns few of the same model, but in different colors. And here you are! You can coordinate your fashion w/ your cars!

    720 is very appropriate handle name.

    Thanks for posting pics, too.

    Are you planning to add 3rd colors to your line-up?

    Congratulations for the new car, they look wonderful together. We would be happy to make you a 1:18 version of each model for you. PM us if you are interested. We can match everything on the model from the strip to the interior. Here is a picture of a Tour de France Blu model we made for a client.

    Thank you,
    Cavallino Models

    Congrats! You or your wife have quite an eye for design -- that yellow-trimmed interior looks great!

    I vaguely recall a post by someone who visited the factory and spec'd out the interior while he was there. Was that you?

    Rick,

    One quick question. I currently have yellow/red cars/bikes in my garage (sadly no ferraris) :( and have cabinets set up similar to yours. My cabinets are white, and I was wondering did you buy red cabinets or did you have white cabinets painted red?

    If you had them painted, could you give me some details as to what kind of paint used?

    when i ordered the yellow stradale last october i asked the dealer (ferrari of orange county) if i could special order the seats to be black alcantara with yellow trim. they checked with FNA and told me i could NOT order the seats this way. i hate to take no for an answer :) turned out that i was going to the 360 challenge finals in mugello anyway so i decided to visit the factory and discuss the seats with them directly. they were very helpful. they explained to me that ferrari sincerely appreciates their customers and they genuinely want to make the customer happy. they told me that they would always try very hard to honor any special requests. in fact, while i was discussing the seats i wanted with the regional sales manager (marco brunelli) he went into the factory and brought out samples of all the different colors of alcantara that they had available. we were both happy to see that they had alcantara in lots of colors including black and yellow :)

    thanks. eventually i want to do something better to the garage floor. i painted the floor gray with a dual-process epoxy paint, but it still is starting to peel under the tires :( it's not awful, but it's not great either. i've heard some people are "polishing" their concrete garage floors to remove all paint and stains, etc. it's an expensive process (about $2500 for a three car garage). i'd have to go see some garages that have been polished to make sure i like the end result before i'd go to this expense :)

    do you ever go on any of the rides that the ferrari driving club (FDC) organizes? i usually make it to about half of them :)

    Nice! Yes - I have been on 3 or so. I was at the "Celebration of the Enzo" one a few months ago in my blue 328. Look for me at future ones in the blue TR. My wife Melissa usually rides shotgun. :)

    I'll make sure to say hello next time.

    because you my friend are a fool if I could I would sell my 360 for a stradale and then sell my other cars and more to get another stradale and another and another until I had every color.

    Great job you are my hero for real there is only one thing better then owning a stradale and that is owning 2 stradale's YIPPIE I am so happy for you good luck with the best looking car in the world i want to keep going but I will start sounding gay so bye bye

    Nice cars; i LOVE the FoBH plate on the back of the Rosso Stradale... How come no stripe on the yellow one...? Congratulations... Drive 'em in good health...
