    This random video was recommended and I wonder if you saw my actual Ferrari. Back in 2004 I bought a 2001 Ferrari 360 exactly red like yours from the exact place you mentioned, Auto Toy store in Ft Lauderdale. Nothing more exciting than getting your new toy showing up in the enclosed trailer, I remember that 360 delivery like it was yesterday. Just two weeks ago I got my Aston Martin Vantage delivered and the feeling never gets old. Congrats, 360 is a solid car minus sticky buttons!

    Beautiful car Gabe, congratulations. The 360 has been my dream car since high school too and I’m especially envious because I had the chance in 2022 to purchase this exact car (white Ferrari script on calipers and cf coolant tank cover are bespoke) from its owner in Florida (amazing condition, had a 30min FaceTime call looking it over). Unfortunate miscommunication happened and NGS ended up getting a chance to wire the money before I did. They ended up doing the 6-spd conversion on it (how God intended this car to be). Good to see it ending up in a loving home with a true enthusiast. This just inspires me to be even more aggressive when the right red/tan couple comes by again. Enjoy in good health!

    Great cars, congratulations. Nice to see you've gone for a manual 360. I had a manual 355 many years ago and the gearchange was the best I've experienced on any car. I had a ride in a 360F1a few years back and not impressed as very jerky in traffic and changes during hard acceleration not that quick. I think the paddle shift 430 is a big improvement though I just love manual Ferraris.

    Huge congrats brother. Man oh man I felt this on a deep level. I've said it with friends at work who have big pickup trucks, but when I ask how much they haul a month, turns out that they don't. I always wanted a 360 Modena. I saved up, paid off debts, got my credit better, but also increased my income and took care of all of the adult things (kid's college paid for, retirement nearly fully funded, other adult things managed to where it was a reasonable purchase). Just like you said, It's not a rational purchase. It's an emotional one. There's no justification needed. I've been to car shows since I was a kid and now at car shows kids love sitting in my C8. There's no ego, or arrogance involved at all. It's just a lifelong passion for performance cars and in my case, racing.
    This was a great video. Enjoy your 360. You've earned it. Thanks for sharing.

    First of all, it was great to meet you at The Stubb this weekend. It’s funny how everybody thinks that a Ferrari owner is rich, while they may be fairly well off, a lot of them don’t pay cash all at time. My experience of meeting all of the “Normal Guy Crew” is that more Ferrari owners than one might think are really down to earth guys who share a passion. People like yourself who have “made it happen.”
    Congratulations and enjoy the hell out of that 360!!

    I felt this same way when i got my first 1986 Honda Elite 150 Deluxe with popup headlight! 😂
    Joking aside, i bought my dream car (kind of) back in the real estate boom 2002-2006 ish. Never had that kind of money & decided to do it. 2000 Porsche Carrera Cabriolet. Loved it.
    But my REAL dream cars are a:
    Ferrari (love the sound, looks & class).
    Range Rover SPORT SVR. (same likes as Ferrari).
    1968 Camaro (nostalgia)
    1977 Bandit Transam (nostalgia)
    1967 Shelby GT 500 (Eleanor)
    Love your story mate. Some similarities in my life, especially not caring about a lot of things that otters spend a lot of money on, like clothes.
    And car racing. Always wanted to do that!
    Enjoy the BEAUTIFUL Ferrari! So happy you're fulfilling that dream.

    So now that you've had it for 7 months, what do you think? I have a similar story to you and ended up with a Gallardo. Sold it though bc the attention it got I found to overall be too much. So many non car people wanting to know who I was, what I do for a living, how much did that cost? etc etc. Hopefully you've had a more positive experience, it's almost been long enough for me to forget about that experience and buy one of these or a 458...

    • @gabeorlowitzracing8273

      I think it depends on where you live and where you take it. So far I’ve mostly driven it in rural areas without any destination so I don’t encounter many people. Just me and the road, how I like it. It would certainly be worse in a populated city. Hopefully the Ferrari brings a more positive experience than the lambo!

      @@gabeorlowitzracing8273yeah makes total sense, glad it’s been good to you so far. Wish I had more rural areas to take it, for the most part that’s what I tried to do but gas station fill ups were an event every time. One time on a back road had a random guy in a jeep lean out his vehicle and flip me off. I was doing absolutely nothing just cruising quietly in a taller gear at 35 mph…. It’s crazy. Ppl ignore the G Wagons, Teslas, fully loaded trucks that cost as much or more than an old Gallardo bc they see Lambo and think it’s a half mil… I would LOVE a red Ferrari, but might just look for one with a less noticeable color… When i was originally looking I was one hour too late to see a red gated 360 that had just sold!

    When I was your age, I was driven by asset accumulation, real estate, stocks etc. I put off my Ferrari purchase until I was in my 50's. While I grew up loving cars, I postponed my gratification. Now I can simply ditch the car with no thought that it represents any significant percentage of my net worth and if I lose money, that sucks, but not the end of the world. The very best financial decision anyone can make is who you marry. That will have more to do with financial success than any other decision you make in your life.
