Awesome car, congrats.

I would imagine 5 year old tires are a little hard by now.

 

Congrats mate. It looks amazing! My dream car for sure!

 

congrats again Tim, that CGT is in the right home !

Enjoy it in the finest of health pal

 

Welcome to Teamspeed and congrats on a lovely car! Take it nice and easy - you'll have plenty of time to get to know her.

 

Nicely done Tim. Your initial comments sound EXACTLY like mine from when I took delivery one month ago. I've driven plenty of nasty cars in the past, but learning to drive this one is like learning a new hobby altogether. It's a if I am snowboarding (or doing something else that I have never done). Each time I take it out, I hope to get a little better. Then I have to do it again before too much time passes, or else I will regress. Make sense???

Regardless, like Jas said, enjoy it in the best of health.

I saw Dan's post a while ago before I finalized the deal and it made me shiver a little! I don't think he was looking for a Basalt car..., but just the same... ;-)

 

I may want something in between. The sound is a little muted right now compared with my other Ferraris, but it's kind of nice not to have ringing ears for once.

Also, for the life of me, I can't tell when the exhaust baffles open. It does have baffles, doesn't it? My F430 Spider used to open around 3500 rpm and was night and day. Maybe I just haven’t given it enough throttle yet. Of course, given my first post above, it may be a while before I get comfortable enough with it to give it another good kick in the pants. :-)

 

Awesome ride. Thats the Alpha and you got her exactly how I would...black on black. Enjoy her in good health. Cheers!

 

Great write up and car! Enjoy it!!

 

Congrats. One day I will get a CGT. You have an F40 as well?! You are on my list of people I want to be like when I grow up.
