My New GTO
It's still sitting at the dealer waiting for the Mat Clear film for the CF side skirts. Hope to take it home on 4/1.

A real Beauty, I wonder if you are a flipper or a keeper? So many transient owners these days of all kinds of cars. Like kids in a candy store with an equal attention span, not that there is anything wrong with that.

I just read this thread - http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/sho...d.php?t=316262


So as one of the fortunate 599, does this car possess something worth keeping or is it the just the brightest wrapping currently on the shelf? I read the Tspeed thread a month or so ago but don't recall any comments on this. I like to understand what people are really thinking and what motivates them.

I guess I'm both a flipper and a keeper. I'm fortunate and lucky enough in life that I can sort of search for the Holy Grail (to me) of sports cars. I've spent the last 8 years or so, buying sports cars of varying price and capability. I started exclusively with Corvettes, mixed in some Mustangs, then a bunch of Porsches and more recently Ferrari's and Porsches. I like them all in different ways. My longest tenure with a sports car is about 5 years and counting. Shortest is two weeks.

My 5 all time favorites from an ownership standpoint. Can't add GTO to this list yet, but it looks very promising as a number one.

1) 2004 Ferrari Challenge Stradale (I'll buy one of these again when I find low miles and stripe, no stories.

2) 2011 Porsche GT3RS - Great part time track car. So, so street car

3) 2006 Ferrari Spider 6 Speed Manual. Regret letting this one go. The warranty was up, so I just figured it was time.

4) 2009 Corvette ZR1 - Great performance for the $$

5) 2009 Porsche Twin Turbo 6 speed Manual. Great Daily Driver.

Still on my wish list:

1) Ford GT

2) Porsche 993 Turbo S

3) Porsche Carrera GT

4) Aston DBS

5) Lambo Murci SV
