    Hey Kuzi, Thanks, i'll definitely take you up on that offer.

    Where do you guys meet anyways? and how do you guys get informed about this. If you guys meet in June, maybe my dad's spider will arrive just in time!!..it looks just like yours Kuzi, red on tan, sheilds, and rear challenge grill.
    is yours f1 or 6 speed? do you have a non-stock exhaust system installed?

    If you werent driving by so fast, i would have stopped to yell at you, lol.

    anyways, keep me posted on when these meets are!

    We are coming up for the Italian Car Show in North Vancouver, June 20th. We are arriving on the 18th and 19th, and hanging out with the Ferrari Club of America membership in Vancouver. We are having lunch in Whiterock on Saturday, and also a dinner Saturday evening, probably in North Van. We usually go to the Brockhouse, but they are booked this year. Most of us will be staying at the Sheraton Wall Centre.

    BTW, many of us come up on other weekends, just to hang out or whatever....though I usually drive my BMW, sometimes I take the 328GTS.

    Hmm, interesting. June 18th eh?
    Maybe by that time my dad's car should arrive, although the dealer did say late June.
    Do you guys mind if we join you on the run?

    saw many ferrari's today
    one on cambie, it was a dark silver 550
    and then saw 2 360 spiders right outside that restaurant, il gridino or something, besides tony roma's.
    the red was stunning.
    maybe those 2 were brian jessel's. it was red and silver.

    also saw a murcielago at ubc yesterday, silver as well. I think it was heading to arts county fair, or not. maybe just driving around. it was just outside thunderbird stadium

    April 22 at 12:13 at the porsche dealership was a Silver Ferrari 360 Modena Spider that caught up to me heading into downtown and I followed him till robson street. Also it had the challenge grill and it was one sweet ass ride. And I was gonna tell the owner (looked to be East Indian/Brown Skin, looked like a cool guy) how nice his ride was but I didn't wanna seem like a compete idiot.

    And also on Burrard was another Red Ferrai 360 Modena Spider and the same time as when I was following the silver one. It was parked out side "Don Frensasco(spelling?)". The restaraunt is one sweet as place and that is just on the corner of robson and burrard.

    Anyone know, any of these nice rich people that knew Ferrari was the way to go. And I also saw a Maseati on the way home, along with the usual amounts of porsche too, but ferrari > * ..

    Also I'm looking for someone to share the Ferrari Experience with me. ..

    Nice photos... Enjoy that Whistler drive now, because I can only imagine the mess it'll become in preparation to upgrade that Hwy for the 2010 Olympics... Anybody know what's the latest with that? New Four-lane tracing/paralleling the old route, or a straight tunnel punched through those mountains?

    The trip was nice, and not much traffic, with only 2 radar traps the entire way. Overall there was only 1 section that they were working on. It looks like its gonna be a 6 lane or a 4 lane with a huge ass divider in the middle..

    Yup, thats the one. It looked much, much better on the road than in the showroom/in pictures. And the guy driving it looked 25 at the most, I was shocked!
