Congrats on the new ride. I've got a 458/Turbo S combo too. It's a tough choice each morning!

Congratulations on the Turbo S. It is one fabulous car. I was in contact with you earlier concerning the headroom in the 458 as I was interested in one but none to be seen in our area. I still have not seen one in person but based on what you told me I am not very optimistic. We also picked up a white Turbo S a few months ago.
