Can't tell you I just borrow it and give it back

I did recently look at some brake pads for it and they wanted $950 just for the front pads. Talk about being ripped off.

$80,000 in 1988 money is $144,000 today with inflation. It was a good thing PO did most of the stuff on the list.

Hate comes from the frustration and disappointment of trying to achieve absolute perfection in the thing you love.

Joy comes from making the thing you love just a little better than it was.

That's for the ceramic brake I suppose.... Still insane regardless. I guess if you have a 575 and other cars hanging around your place, $1000 is like tip money after you spent the night with a few people drinking Cristal, eating Beluga, and Dry Aged Fillet Mignon...Oh and a few bottles of $600 wine.

At least the 928 is a mistress you can park and ignore for a bit when she's frustrating. Plus with all th efriends plagued with the same mistress in a different dress, you can always compare notes and tips. What's wrong with this?
