Wow. your garage just leaves me speechless. I totally agree with that MD's certainly allows one to be comfortable, but not enough (usually) to be "rich" nowadays with medical legal issues , reimbursments , etc. I have learned over the years that this profession is a good foundation to spring into something bigger and better later.

This is a pretty interesting thread because everyone is going ooh and aah about the F40. More than any previous CGT thread. I guess that's the real difference between the F40 and the CGT. The F40 has more of a wow factor because of the outrageous bodywork, spartan interior, and the fact that it is 14 years old. It's not just a Ferrari, it's one of THE ultimate Ferrari's. It looks like you made the right choice! Considering the other cars in your stable, each and every one of them is probably a blast to drive and being a good daily driver is probably not a consideration. Because the F40 is 14 years old, you have had 14 years to dream of owning one. The longer you have had to dream about it, the sweeter the reward. The F40 is more a matter of fulfilling a dream or achieving a goal than buying a supercar.
I don't mean to **** off CGT owners. They are also kick *** cars but I've only lusted after that car for a year or so.

Okay as a newly minted Moderater I feel it is my duty to
BAN you Doc for posting Ferrari stuff in the
Porsche forum.
But, if you can give me a ride in that F40 maybe we can work something out!
Seriously though you HAVE to get us some video footage of that monster and SOON!

Congrats
Are you going to DRIVE it or is it going to be the G queen/investment? Either way "you win" as the other guy said!
BTW, how bad is the turbo lag, and how tall are the gears? Whats the max RPM in 1st? Thanks.

What can I say that hasn't been said already. VERY NICE CONGRATS.
How do you insure something like that? With classic car insurance?
