    Hi everyone! Just put a deposit down on my first Ferrari, a 430 Scuderia, and thought I'd introduce myself.
    Owned mostly Porsches before this, 1979 911 SC (still have), 2006 987 Cayman S (sold), and a 2016 981 GT4 (still have).

    The spec I wanted in a scud finally came up so I jumped on it.
    -Rosso (first Ferrari has to be red, right?)
    -Alcantara dash
    -Alcantara seats (with red backed mesh inserts)
    -Yellow tach
    -2009 so it has the carbon package and also doesn't have the mismatched color airbag alcantara

    Attached are three pics (and one of the GT4 snuck in, hope that's ok)

    I'm around the PA/NYC/NJ area so I'll be taking this to track events at NJMP/Pocono/Lime Rock and may make my way down to VIR sometime. Hope to see some of you there. :)

    Plans for the car:

    -BBS FI wheels OEM size (sliver)
    -Slightly wider front tires (245-255)
    -Exhaust, currently thinking Larini manifold + Larini cats + Kline muffler

    That's it, don't want to mess with it too much, just want more of that F1 sound.

    Not sure where you are in relation to this event, but the FCA (Ferrari Club of America) Penn-Jersey Region will be having their Pennsylvania Concorso Ferrari at the Aronimink Golf Club in Newtown Square, PA on Sunday, May 18. It's a terrific event. 100+ Ferraris on the show field. $95 (last year) buys you admission, breakfast coffee, parking on the show field and judging of your Ferrari if you want it, and a decent lunch at the awards ceremony. Here is a link to this year's event: <https://paconcorsoferrari.org>. I try to go every year, even when I don't have a Ferrari to drive.

    Thanks, I'm actually pretty close to there. Assuming nothing comes up last minute, I'll be there!
