The moment in 1958 when a sports car-crazed youth in Massachusetts saw his first Ferrari changed his life. The black 250 GT coupe's seductive lines, purposeful air and already hallowed name seized Robert E. Guarino's imagination, just a few years later, he would be selling such cars. And in 1967, with two partners and an investment of just $6, 000 apiece, he would open a Ferrari-Porsche-Datsun dealership. This memoir follows his lifelong journey with Ferraris and other remarkable automobiles, as an enthusiast and dealer. Highlights include a nonstop drive from Chicago to Boston in a 308 GTB, rides with important figures like Piero Ferrari at Fiorano and Dario Benuzzi at Mugello, visits to the Ferrari, Maserati and Lamborghini factories, the horror of watching a delivery truck crash onto a row of new cars, and time at the wheel of such icons as the 365 GTB/4 "Daytona, " 250 GTO, 288 GTO and F40.
