Trip to Ferrari NE

So 2 weeks ago I happened to be in the Boston area for training, so why not stop in to Ferrari New England. I saw a 430 in Grigio Silverstone, convinced me its the right color/car that I am looking for, but I also saw this wonderful 612- Very pretty!

Steve- Very pretty 612. Like Maranellos, they look really nice in silvers and grays.

In my teenage years in the LA area in the 60s, my father and I haunted exotic car dealerships as cheap weekend entertainment. He drove a 61 Corvette, so we always were treated pretty well. Not too many sports cars back then, and Corvette drivers waved at Porsches, MGs, A-H, Triumphs, etc, and VV, who waved back. Times change.

I truly enjoy going into dealerships ... recall selling my house and left a closing with a big fat check.

Luckily the salespeople ignored me.

Terry I wave at everyone - cept the po po

I wave at most nice cars as well. Vette guys seem especially surprised, but always wave back. Doug, I even wave at the Fuzz, they always like the Spider, a few have stopped to look at it and ask questions.

David- You are correct. Most sports car drivers are still real enthisiasts and will return a salutation. Luckily, so are the local fuzz, most of whom have had a ride in my car. Familiarity breeds friendship.
