Congrats! I keep eyeballing the 996 myself. Looks great! Excited for when you get it.

A new Ferrari opportunity came up….THIS ONE COST ME ….

As with watches, I will every so often consolidate vehicles to get something next level.

A very special car….Newly acquired 488 Pista.
Always wanted a giallo Ferrari. I’ve tried in the past to make a couple deals on a yellow Fcar, unfortunately it never panned out.
Had an opportunity come my way for a very special Ferrari. Someone alerted me of this vehicle, THEN I SAW THE SPEC…I basically (other than doing my due diligence) jumped at this chance as soon as I laid eyes on it. Cost me dearly.. 2 Fcars for 1 trade, but this one is worth it ! (IMO). This could be in the garage forever.

Absolutely insane purchase. What a car! Together with the F12 TDF, my top 2 cars made ever. I wish to own either some day too.

308 back from service…my fiancé and I went out for a Sunday drive & lunch yesterday. Very small glimpse of fiancé’s blue GT4 Lusso parked in the background.

Great looking 308

Yikes, new plugs didnt fix it? Sounds like they could be cross threaded?

I’m pretty sure my best option is do a swap for a running 2F. My guy had one available a few weeks ago so hopefully it’s still available.

Apparently it was the oil galley plug. So not a catastrophe and it means I’ve got oil pressure. She still doesn’t want to start though.

Congrats Richard, don't remember reading you picked up a 308, lovely car. Now we NEED some pics of the GTC 4Lusso, always thought those were so underrated and would make a great V12 daily.

Thank you sir. Did an incoming thread. It's been a crazy couple months as far as cars go.

Richard, did you test drive both the V12 and V8T before your decision?
