First year with a 930 and first year with no snow. I Geuss more is working out for me than just the mods. Hell I spent 800 bux on cat bypass pipes for my 94 ferrari and it stayed the same terd.

I would have to admit that our snow has been a bit whimpy this year as well. Not that I don't like and actually find time to enjoy the stuff, but it does get in the way of some of the finer things in life...like driving our cars.
Interested in your perspective on the F348. My bet is that a well tuned - and particularly well modified 930 - would most likely take the performance prize. But having never had the pleasure to drive any Ferrari, I could be way left of center.
The 348 is a fine looking machine (in it, I can see where Japan copied some of the body style in my 3000GT). But we're talking Japan vs. Italy....no contest.
I've had this urge just very recently to look for a Ferrari, but my price range would probably limit me to a 328. Next in line might be a Testa, but the cash register starts to chime very quickly. And then there's the wife factor.....
Somebody needs to bring me to my senses...waayyyyy tooooo close to retirement to be contemplating such nonsense (sorry......)

The 348 compared to the 930 I feel is a boat. Handling and sports car feel about the same but its a valve cover leaking 3.4 v8 that revs high and makes about 280 to the wheels. Not to much feeling in the seat of ur pants for a 3300 lb car. Slow enough to be afraid to race people. I would not be afraid of a race in the 930. And I mean the intake system on it you can't modify. The exhaust u can do a 4k dollar tubi muffler. So fueled right with bolt ons you could make 300 whp. Paid 50k for mine. Lot happier with the 28k I paid for the 930.
