CJ CONGRATS BUD....

Now buy up all of the 4.0 RS's, and distribute them amongst your beloved Rennlist buddies and fans ha

C.J. Congrats.
I've never watched a baseball game in my life, but I think you are probably pretty good at it
Too bad it's always the gross #...

or a 1994 f1? I've always wanted one of those and an F40.
Good taste Baseball whatever.
Add a Carrera GT, 4.0RS and you have four of the best that will never come back....

Get garage space, who cares about bedrooms ;-)

Haha, of course, perfect

But perhaps a 4.0 on the side for proper trashing?

This time one with all the light weight options and without cupholder no matter how much you need to hydrate

Probably impossible to find at this point with only some bloaded dealer ordered cars left..

to be honest I would enjoy an 08 RS just as much as a 4.0RS. and for possibly HALF the price...

looking for rental homes right now...when I build the house it will have plenty of parking then no issues of "not enough room for my toys"

CJ, dump the 599 before they tank, buy a Scuderia and keep the change. If you miss the 599, sell the Scuderia next year, buy a 599 and once again keep the change.

07/08RS are 95% of the car the 3.8 or 4.0 RS are, and the 07/08 RS looks better too. Half price, and 95% the fun. A nice 500Hp upgrade to a 997.1 RS and a short R&P gear, and the car is ready for fun times at the track regardless of what's out there.

Keep the Carrera GT, that's a classic. Find a F40, that's another classic. These two are investments, on their way to become $1MM cars in 15 years or so.

Congrats on the opportunity to play close to home, CJ! HUGE baseball fan here and have followed the Rangers since living in the Dallas area for a while. Guess I'll have to keep up with the Angels. By the way, is it the California or Anaheim or LA Angels now...
