Are up in our 2006 Ferrari F430 Spider Convertible discussion. Go, comment, drool, enjoy! |

Well, I went over and looked at the pictures. I'd seen them yesterday on the owners sight and some shot taken in Bahrain of the car on the road. The Bahrain photos were obviously not professional shots so, perhaps, that's where the test mule ended up. Anyway, I think it's lovely and actually think it has better lines than the GTB. That usually isn't the case. What so you guys think?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the Ferrari enthusiast magazine called Forza? I just read the most recent issue of it at the bookstore yesterday and they had great articles in it. This current issue had a comparison of a 328 GTS and a Mondial (both late '80s models). While the 328 only had about 20k miles on it, the Mondial had what was defined as "105k well-driven miles." Which brings me to my next comment: How anyone could get more than 100k miles out of a Ferrari is beyond me. I thought it couldn't be done because Shifty said Ferraris are just about well-used at around 80k miles.

You've probably seen it, Tom, but in case you haven't, the new issue of Forza on the stands has a cover story on the 328 series. Haven't had a chance to read it yet myself. Ferrari weather is coming soon. |

Andy, Cavallino is still published and is one of the most beautifully photographed and well researched magazines around. It deals, almost exclusively, with historical cars, with some mention of new models as they appear. Yes, I read the article in Forza. It's always a pleasure to hear people say nice things about the car you love. Jrosasmc, with proper care an Fcar can go well beyond 100K. At least I hope so. Having just spent in excess of 6K on a major service and other things on my 52K mile 328, I'd like to get all the miles I can out of it. Will this winter ever end? Anyone in the New England area should make plans to see the Ralph Lauren Collection at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, this spring. It's going to be a great show.
