If I recall correctly you had a burgandy/tan? Damn that was the finest looking 360 I have ever seen. I drove the Gallardo, granted an earlier model, and just felt there were too many Audi parts on the inside and it felt a little tame. I have not driven the latest Gallardo, but do plan to buy one at some point as I do love the engine in that car. I too need a family car so bought a 750Li loaded and took delivery in Munich. We drove around for a couple of weeks--very cool.

You will sell every car you buy, including your Gallardo. Less than one tenth of one percent of people buy high-end cars and keep them more than ten years. Most car enthusiasts are car ******; moving from one hot car to another.

Ferrari is 100% aluminum, hence the ALCOA on the frame inside the engine compartment.

DB9 or GT? Hmm. Tough call there.

Talked to those guys at Algar when trying to acquire a 360 and they were great, but a tad high. I'm sure if I lived there and bought cars from them they'd be better to me.

Got any pics of your 997s?

 

Truer words have never been spoken!

 

Not sure if you wanted apic of my 997s, but here it is.
Stck, except for smarttag and denison/laser blocker and escort.
cheers, happy thanksgiving

 

I had 2 360's a red coupe, and a black spider, and yes I would agree that (since I've owned over 130 cars in the last 10 years) many are car ******, and I used to be one of them, but as I get older (and I hope wiser), I have realized the cars I now own have been altered to a point that they give me everything I will ever need. Just a few years ago, I would have been one of the first to get the latest Ferrari from Algar, but I have no interest in the 458, or any of the new crop of cars. After over 35 years of playing with cars, I have other things that are more important in my life, and once I find a nice coupe (I drive a Range Rover in winter), I will be all set. I have no idea how much I have spent over the years doing mode on cars, but it easily over a half a million dollars and I can not say I did not love every minute of it, to almost everyone who knows me, it was a crazy thing to do. So to answer your question, no I wont sell either car, the desire for the next best thing no longer is in me.

 

Just read entire f-thread.

I never knew I was such a piece of trash, nor that I drove a piece of trash. I could buy a 360 if I chose to, I just like having $$$ in my pocket at the end of the month instead.

As far as these religious Fcar owners/nuts go, lets crucify them and nail them to a cross and see how far their loyalty/religion goes then.

"...hey guys...come down off the Ferrari-cross...it's getting winter-time...we need the wood!!!"

 

Is this the Porsche or Ferrari forum...as always, I am confused. Oh, what kind of watch do Ferrari owners own? Oh boy....I know I am asking for it.
BTW, no one can compete with a YUGO owner...now thats loyalty! So there you F owners...take that!!
(BTW for those sensitive hard*sses out there...its a joke and no I don't own a Yugo)
abe

 

Yes, but unlike a *****, we remember each one with great fondness!

I owned a 740iL in between my 1st and 2nd 911. It was a great way to cleanse my palate, enhancing ownership of my 2nd 911.

Outstanding.

Cultivating future car enthusiasts is a lot of fun. When I return home from DE events, I unload the trailer on the street in front of my house. I live on a cul de sac, so all of the neighbors' kids come running over to find out if I "won the race". They pepper me with all kinds of questions about the car, the danger, the "competition", etc. I let them climb on the trailer, and help spot me when it's time to back the car down the ramps. It's a hoot, watching their unfiltered enthusiasm - some are too young to know if it's a Porsche or a Volkswagon; all they know is that it looks hot.

I'm in Plano. Here's my car (my 3rd 911)...



Every time I pull up next to a Ferrari at a stop light, I look over and ask "wanna trade for a day?"

Well... do ya?
(want to trade for a day?)

 

Thread was started with a link to F-chat, where I am a member, and I do own a Ferrari. It's not about cars, but people, and they're all the same everywhere--my point.

I own Panerai (no Ferrari watches--tacky).

Love your GT. No trades, sorry. But would be happy to hook-up. My new 7 is a daily driver. F's are too expensive to drive everyday given the maintenance.
