Sorry for the lack of updates. Phone was dead most of the night.
The disappointing part was that I missed a McLaren P1 in the Old Port by about 5 mins.
This morning near Sainte Catherine
Out for a morning drive to breakfast
Always cooling off haha
The Montreal Skyline from Champlain Bridge.
Some toys in the parking lot at the race this morning.
Twin minus the wheels.
That's it for now.

Thank you Tyler. It's a sweet car but I find the V8 a tad slow for how heavy the car is. The Jag feels similar if not faster with 40 hp less. But it is for her and she couldn't give 2 shits about power. I'll clean them later and post some clean pictures.

I knew it! The side mirror gave it away in the garage pic. Only one possibility when the mirrors are on the door and the turn signal is embedded in the middle. I didn't want to spoil it.
That's an awesome ride for the wife!

Truly impressive stable, Mark! You already know how I feel, but it is worth repeating - you have great taste, man. Thank you for sharing, and nice to know you don't just drive your performance cars downtown. Love seeing cars used to their potential.

Thank you for your great words everyone, I do realize how lucky I am...nor do I take it for granted, I know things come and go. I try to give as many rides to everyone that asks and let others enjoy.
What good are they if you don't let others enjoy?
Wes, send me a message over the weekend and we'll see if we can meet up.

I just wanted to share my thoughts after about a month and a half of owning my new car.
I could go on and on about how awesome it is and it truly is but here's a few things that have struck out to me:
Great daily driver, averaging right now about 9.5L/100 km/hr. That is better than any car that I own right now including in terms of fuel mileage. When I drove to Montreal two weeks ago I was doing around 8.1 which is downright silly for a car with this much power. I know its heresy to talk about fuel mileage with some cars but I think it demonstrates the broad range of usability some people get out of it.
The suspension with the Magnaride option allows for the bumpy road setting...the ride on our horrendous streets is much more tenable and compliant than the other two cars.
The acceleration is breathtaking, the intake and exhaust sound are downright hilarious but most of all so far my favourite feature is the transmission. From normal Drive to the full on Race, Ferrari has truly mastered the art of the flappy paddle gearbox. It's amazing.
I am also happy how everyone on the street is enthusiastic and positive about the car, It's been nothing but thumbs up and smile and waves.
I'll think of some other things If they come to mind..will post more pictures this weekend.
Oh and West6MT great meeting you!
