Enjoy the new car!

Thanks Dennis C! I may be looking at a 360 Spyder in a couple years depending on how good or bad my experience is

LOL! That Jaguar was beautiful, belonged in a museum.

Yes this was a Cars and Coffee meet

Thanks Gulliver! That must have been awesome to own those both. The C4S is much faster and handles better...that is why Im sure I'll be getting another one

Hope you find happiness in your new ride. Start saving up for that tuneup, lol.

Now if I can just scrape enoug for a Countach, I'd be set...

Thanks man! I've seriously wanting one of these since 2006, you're right they were in the 20's back then. I hear that the price of these and the F355's will be going up soon.

No joke about saving for the tune up

and I would cut off my left arm and one ear for a Countach

Congrats! I test drove a few F355's earlier this year and while I still want one, I just couldn't think of the money it would cost, especially after driving it. Just didn't seem to have much power.

But as I said.....I will probably own one some day, so I am jealous! But not of the mouse belts!

;-)

Enjoy!!!

Congrats! Nice car. Enjoy it.

I bought my 996 as a stepping stone into an F-car (F-430) later. But now, I'm contemplating if it would be truly worth an extra $75K. If anyone has first hand experience, I'd love to hear it. I have driven an F-430 but only for a couple of laps and that's not the same as driving it around town.

I did all of the exhaust development for FS on the 348 - shoot me a pm if you're interested in talking about it. Here is a link to the thread with dyno plots.
