    Some folks get the bug and have to buy another Ferrari (while keeping their first or not, doesn't matter here). I'm curious what that 2nd car was in comparison to the first. Same concept of car (e.g. V8 mid engine), but newer model, upgrade to 12 cylinders, a race car, a vintage car, a four seater?

    Let's hear it!

    A "spare"....identical to the first, but 300 cars newer!

    Well, it IS a different color, so we can keep the keys straight!

    1st was a 355 Fiorano
    2nd was a 550 Maranello

    still have both of them.

    Contemplating adding a 3rd one, 612 Scagligetti.

    I saw a silverstone silver 612 today for the first time. I like it a lot. I also saw a couple black ones also at the dealer. Black looks nice too. The 612 look is growing on me slowly.

    My First was a 330GTC - 67
    Second was a 250GTE - 61
    Thrid was a 355 Spider - 95
    Fourth was a Lamborghini Gallardo - 04
    On Order is the Gallardo Spyder - due in March - 06

    I loved the vintage cars - but didn't drive them due to fear of breaking, taking months to source parts, my wife didn't like them as much due to the modern convieniences when going out on the town - the newer cars I drive a lot more - my wife does too. And that warranty thing is pretty nice too :)

    I will go back to the vintage F-cars one day and think the best blend is having both old and new!

    #2 1967 330 GT 2+2

    Best of both worlds- the most reliable Ferrari and a vintage V-12. The only way I think I can round this out is a 550 Maranello (#3 someday)

    First 550M, second 355B, third 360M. Next car will be one going up in value rather than down.
