I'm assuming he is going to want a $5,000 deposit. Is that in line with what everyone else has paid. I will be 2nd on his list which he say's will mean delivery sometime in 2009.
I've owned Ferrari's in the past, but I haven't even sat in an R8 much less drive one. I'm 6'4" 225, will I fit?

than a Ferrari.

When I first discussed making a deposit he said 3k was their policy. I wanted to put it on my Amex, which they will only use up to 2500.00. They didn't make a big deal about the difference.

Are you ordering a V10? If so, I didn't think they would be taking orders until late 2009 at the earliest.
