    Hi... just wanted to introduce myself. I've been a Porsche guy for 5 years, but love Ferraris to death and plan to own one as soon as it's feasible.

    My experience with Ferraris has been driving a 348 and a 355 in the US, and a 360 on the autobahn (that was a GREAT time!). Last summer I made the pilgrimage to Maranello and saw the Enzo first hand on the track. Breathtaking.

    Anyway, I'm a former Marine who transferred to the Army Special Forces last year. I'm looking forward to learning from these forums and maybe seeing some more of these beautiful specimens.

    Welcome aboard, soldier. Don't know if you realize this, but you have probably driving more different types of Ferraris than 90% of the people on this board, except Jordan.

    Take care, Dale

    I've never been stationed in Europe. I actually just flew there in order to rent the 360 and visit Italy (and some other places). I've also been to Okinawa, Thailand, Hong Kong, etc. with a MEU though. I guess you were UDP?

    Anyway, DrTax, thanks for the welcome. I'm always looking forward to learning from first hand owners and enthusiasts!

    Consider joining the Ferrari Club also. The regional website for your area is at
    www.fca-se.com

    FerrariChat and FCA are both great resources for the pre-owner, as well as for those who already have Ferraris.

    Have you been to the Matterhorn (Zermatt)? I was last there about two years ago, definitely an experience... :)
