No problem. It's just so much easier to scroll through this way and see everything quickly.

Mark, thanks for sharing your experience with the factory tour. Do you have to own a Ferrari to go on a tour or can anyone go if you arrange it in advance? I've always wanted to check that place out.

that's a question I can't answer. I will say that 3 people on our tour where there and the guy said it took him 10 months to get on a tour. I emailed the day before I left to FNA and got on a tour. My dealer had to send them a voucher that I was a client to get me in. The guy on the tour didn't have a car until just recently so he I believe got the tour many months in advance by waiting.

So I doubt that answered anything for sure. I would call your local dealer and ask.

Thanks for the info. No F-car dealers within 500 miles so I might have to wait til one of you guys goes again and tag along.

very specific 2 people at a time is all they said I could get without putting in a lot of effort including me. So it will be a toss up between you, my wife or KT whomever is nicest to me at the time. I don't ever need to go back though.

Lol, Mark. Alex, outta my way!

Seriously, I'm glad you were pleasantly surprised by the tour. A bit strange that you had no interest prior.. I can understand say, not caring about how my leather bag was made but get me inside a sports car factory and that's another story entirely.
