New Addition to Stable
 
Yes, I kept my C6 - with 117,000 miles on her - normally my daily driver - but six days ago I purchased an '88 328 GTB Ferrari in North Carolina and drove it home.

In the six days of ownership I have had more compliments, comments, more photos shot, more conversations than I've had with my '07 C6 in almost 7 years of ownership. I've had the Vette in more than 20 states and I'm a really outgoing, friendly, approachable guy.

With the Ferrari people stop to talk to me in gas stations, grocery store lots, Walmart parking lots, hotel parking lots, etc - yes, I take it to Walmart, just as I have the Vette for the past nearly 7 years.

I drove both cars day before yesterday and could not get the smiles off my face in both cars.... I was thinking just how great it is to be nearly 72-years-old and having so much fun!

Great looking rides. :thumbs:

I drove mine to Wal-Mart also (but parked a little far out)... I couldn't stay in the store long. I was worried about some idiot bumping into it. :willy:

I'd personally hate all the attention.

:cheers: Super addition, I am sure there is no need to tell you to enjoy it.

Red08 07-04-2013 04:46 PM

The Ferrari is less common, thus probably the reason for the increased attention. Enjoy your new ride.

Joni Lynn 07-04-2013 04:47 PM

Congrats. It's great to see you enjoying these cars.
More pics though, you can't just tease us a little bit like this.

BWF07 07-04-2013 04:59 PM

great looking pair of cars you have. I have always been an admirer of Ferrari. There are not may out there that I am not impressed with. Post up some more pictures when you can.
I attend a monthly Cars & Coffee at a Ferrari dealership that is about 5 minutes from my house.
