    I want to thank everyone involved with ferrarichat.com, I just got my first Ferrari and Friday was my first day with the F-car. It is a 99 355 F1 GTS. This weekend was phenomenal! I want to say that without Ferrarichat.com I would never have ended up with a car as pristine as the one I ended up with. This site enable a Ferrari beginner enthusiast (myself) become a very educated shopper and put me in touch with some of the best people in the ferrari community. I would have just been a guy that wanted a Ferrari and went and got one without the resources, connections, and knowledge I obtained at Ferrarichat. I give a special thanks first of all to Jim and Bret and Fantasy Motors in New Orleans. Two great guys. Bret helped me tremendously even knowing that by the time I got in touch with him (thanks to Ferrarichat) I was pretty far in the search process and had already located a few vehicles I had narrowed it down to, and therefore would most likely not by buying through him. He sacrificed hours of his family time on a holiday to educate me on Ferrari's and take me to meet "the only guy to bring your car to" in New Orleans, Jim Lindsey. Which brings me to my second very special thanks. Jim, Mike, and Eddie at Lindsey Automotive in New Orleans. They are Truly first class guys who care about the car and the customer more than making a dollar. They have went above and beyond the call of duty with me and have been there for me through the buying process all the way to me picking up my car friday after they did a full service on the car before I even drove it. Those guys have been especially busy lately and still made sure I got my new car (freshly serviced) ASAP. I know they had to work overtime and on Sunday to get my car done quick and I could not thank them enough. Just super guys(Mike gave me his cell number to call him anytime which I did about 3 time this weekend)and Jim Lindsey runs a super operation. Thank Ya'll so much!!!! I also want to Thank Paul Wehmer, who is the reason I got in touch with the right Ferrari people in New Orleans in the first place. And a thanks to Ron Borderline, who took time out to call me personally instead of just respond to my post to help me learn more. And Thanks to anyone and everyone who posted replies to my post and all the past posts I scrolled through to learn more about F-cars. THANKS!!!, Teddy Solomon.

    You're welcome Teddy, the car looks great! As well cared for as any other 355 I have seen. And with that fresh service you can really dive it (worth the wait, right?) How many tanks of gas did you burn through this weekend?

    Drive it in good health buddy.

    I've seen the car but it was 8 feet in the air and in pieces so yes- need to post some pictures. It is a very clean and well taken care of example.

    So everyone else can know this- Teddy never drove a Ferrari before buying this one so we gotta hear the driving impressions!

    Glad you found Fchat to be of good use.

    It has certainly helped me out on numerous occasions. So I try my best to pay back by posting useful info when I can.

    Congratulazione e benvenuti! You've entered a whole new world.

    I would have gotten a 355 GTS (though a 6-speed model) if I were a wealthier man. As the saying goes, use it in good health!
