    I think I figured out where the car went. Before I comment, does anyone have info on where that car is?

    I lost track of it. I was considering it along with the 2 other white ones at one time. One was at Lamborghini Dallas and the other is currently still for sale in Texas. Haven't seen it for a while. A friend of mine who does some wholesaling said a buddy of his bought a white one from up north about a month ago but didn't know where it came from. They apparently sold it for a tidy profit. Could this be the same one from Brahman?

    Guys,

    I found the whereabouts of the car! It is actually on a truck coming to my house for delivery :)

    Very excited. This is my second 16M. I never gave the first one an opportunity to grow on me because I made the mistake of buying a red one. No offense to the red car fans, but those who know me know that I rarely buy red fcars. Anyhow, I have had my dose of 458s and dual clutch thrills with the FF as well. It's time to March back to the spine shuttering transmission and analog, raw feel of the 16M. It truly is a marvel and stunning to look at. Amazing to think they made fewer of these than the 599gto. We can all suggest that it's because the limited desire of a drop top with a track car. I don't intend to track the car, so I want all options at my fingertips when on that drive in the sun.

    Anyhow, more to come after delivery. Jonathan at Ferrari of New England did an amazing job pulling this transaction together so quickly a and seamlessly. They truly are a first class operation. Kudos to them!

    Its a beautiful car! Love the yellow calipers and how it ties in with the Scuderia shields.

    Agreed, keep this one. The only other one you should have kept was the blue CS, that car was a stunner as well!

    So what happened to this car? Was it bought by ferrari NE? How did you find it?

    Correct on the VIN timba. Found the car through a good friend who saw it posted the first day Ferrari of New England listed it. I have bought cars from them. Effort but this was my first time working with them in a couple of years. VERY very professional and passionate about ensuring the pinnacle of enjoyment. Jesse and Jonathan are class acts over there.

    The car was delivered today and guys I must say the 16M is an amazing car. The irony of its delivery today is that it was delivered an hour after I attended the unveiling of the Speciale at our local Ferrari Dealer, Algar. While there's no question the Speciale is an incredible car, I just see it as a routine iteration - strip the car and increase the horsepower and add engineering bits. leaving the Speciale event and going to pick up the 16M, you immediately see seo thing very very special that Ferrari created. A car somewhat overlooked when released because of it falling right as the 458 was being introduced. It's is wild fire personified and the detail put into every aspect of the car is second to none. Sure, the Speciale is engineered to amaze. The 16M is a different form and feel of engineering perfection. It includes a passion and art that seems transparent and lacking in the Speciale.

    White really sets the car apart from the red one I owned and others I've seen. The carbon everywhere even including the back of the roll bars. The white stitching everywhere and the pure feel of the car in your hands is something I am privileged to experience.

    I haven't posted much about my recent Ferrari purchases and there's a reason. They lack the circumstance, the event and the exhilaration that the 16m.

    Pics to come tomorrow.

    Congrats, incredible and just beautiful. Jonathan and Jesse are great to work with over there. A 16M is hopefully in my future, even a red one, lol.

    Looks good Joe, congrats! Can't wait to see it in person! (I'll set the over/under date as June 1, 2014.)

    Do you still have the FF or is that gone too?

    Amazing color, looks so nice, no 16m is complete unless it has the 5 spoke wheels. Good job.
