I know the feeling . Right after i bought my 355 GTS back in 2000, i  got 
chills everytime i raised the garage door up and saw the Silver Horse on the 
rear expose. In my mind i could hear the background music of 2000 a Space 
Odyssey playing;-). Not too long afterward, Boeing used that theme music at 
one of its aircraft unveilings, the 787 i believe.
