Doc,
Those were the sentiments that drove me to the GT. I have some nice black and white prints on my office wall of the Le Mans cars in action and the 06 in the garage, life is good. Any idea how one can get a copy of the program you mentioned?
Mine is a problem from time to time - need to squeeze hard to open, other times its fine. Only once did I have to reach outside and push the electronic button opener which indicates its probably not the way the door is fitting, more likely to be a cable issue. I was going to wait until first...
I really like Clarkson and his show - very funny. His 2 segments on the GT could not be more complimentary (GT ; GT40 and GT vs F430 vs Zonda). This is a guy who drives every supercar produced and declares his love, literally for the GT - think we should appreciate that. On the other hand I...

Congratulations you'll love the car and as you've noticed so will most of the other driving public.
My tips driving tips for new ownership:
Treat it with respect - if you step on it too strongly you can lose the back even in a straight line - learn where the limits are gently over time...
Great story - brings great fear just to hear those words - 'I think I'll drive darling'. My wife followed me home from restaurant last week and was amazed at the attention the car received.She said 'imagine of I was driving how people would react. Just the thought - pure terror !!!
I've owned a GT for a few weeks and put over 600 miles on the clock. I intended to drive to work once a week and take it out on sunday for a polish and drive. Last week I drove it much more than planned - difficult to stay away - I get withdrawal symptoms when I dont drive the GT for a couple of...
The Grand Prix there is one of the greatest car events - shame we don't get to see it over here in US. The cars may change in competitiveness from year to year but Schumacher is the one.
Just back from Marbella - had dinner on the front in Puerto Bannus - 6 Ferrari 360/430 spiders went past...
Vince, Picking up the GT from the dealer is like buying any other car - except you or the dealer needs a camera to catch the excitement. Once on the road take it easy until you are comfortable. No one minds you going a bit slow everyone wants to get a look anyway. That's the main issue - cars...
I waited for the call ..... the car has arrived ... come and get it!
Since seeing the advert for the GT during the Superbowl a couple of years ago - I had to have it. I'd always promised myself a Ferrari and when I saw the F430 I thought that's the car. But when I learnt about the heritage of...
Thanks for all your advice. I will be able to inspect the car before buying so should be ok. Once I see it I don't think I'll be able to wait until end of May for the other one. In any case I'll put another 17 miles on it driving it home !
I'm a new member of the Forum and pretty excited about taking delivery of a
new Tungsten GT scheduled for delivery at end of May. The dealer called to say he had bought an identical spec from a small dealer and would get delivery this week. He asks if I want to switch. Looking for advice on...
