Default I'm sitting in my office today

doing reviews, deciding year end bonuses and trying to keep my sanity, So, I'm looking up Ferrari's web site, exploring the Ferrari 430, the 575M and the 612 Scaglietti and asking myself should I go for the 12 cylinder.

I look out the window and a Carrera GT goes by (Leigh Ave, e-Bay's around the corner) and I do a double take. He goes by another 3 times so I decide to bug Mike for his impressions.

Is God (or the Devil) tempting me?; and more importantly is that owner a Rennlister?

Colm,

Get the CGT, you won't regret it. Follow the advice in your sig and don't argue with me.

My reasoning went like this ... if I have a choice between one additional employee and a CGT which one would it be .. so it was an additional employee. There is really no comparison to anything Ferrari makes other than Enzo.

I share the sentiment, but in the long run....

if you take the time to kneel down and look over a cgt in person, the door sills, the edge of the
doors when they are open, the horizontally mounted suspension as seen when the engine cover
is up, the stunning finish applied to the carbon fibre, all the unmolested carbon fibre, the fit and
finish, etc. there is NOTHING like it. oh them when it starts up... holy sh#*!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
