I like the fact that this car borders on a GT rather than strict sports car, because touring is what I do best.
I'm seriously thinking of going over to the dark side, but thought I would ask your input first. I know there are a few Ferrari guys in the house (motion, lowyder etc)
The prices of these cars are remarkably low here in Europe. And I would get a very sweet deal.
Any thoughts, comments or advice greatly appreciated.

Maranello, as in 550 or 575?
They're great cars, undervalued (IMHO), and follow the V12 long-hood / short-deck formula that has been true to Ferrari since the very first road car.
Rather than tell you what to watch out for, I'd point you to FerrariChat (I'm Kaisen there as well)
456/550/575 - FerrariChat.com
You can't go wrong. From what I know of your personality and tastes, it would suit you perfectly.
