Spotted this video and thought you might fancy a look-see.

You're a bastard. I'm in San Jose - just found a tempting Ferrari to buy - but was resisting. Now I'm done. Gotta have it - going to see it tomorrow if I can.

Cliff - I'm sending YOU the invoice! : )

Which days can I drive it? Since I'm paying for it. Does that mean I can have your 964? I'm looking for a track rat.

Which F-Car pray tell?

Better not be a 308 GTB. I'll have to roll you for it.

I remember when the F40 arrived in Canada. I was 18 years old and my buddy Alex (a fellow Rennlister) and myself were invited to Gentry Lane Ferrari for the unveilling. It was never legal in Canada, but they brought one in for this event. It sold soon after for $650,000 USD. The car was on a rotating platform covered up and I still remember the anticipation and excitement. When that cover was removed, the site was amazing. It was a magical moment as the red F40 had the most amazing shine under the halogen lights. I saw one last year on the 407. Now that they are more than 15 years old, you can finally legally register one in Canada. What a great car!

Sweet video. I love the F40 and the F430 Scuderia. But I want to smack the guy everytime he says, "sku-dare-ee_ahh". It's "skoo-dur-ee_yah" you mope.

Sorry JP - not looking at an F40 down here. A lowly 348Tb - divorce sale - cheap. Might be a dog - but we'll see.

You know me and used car prices - I'll offer him $15k - see how it goes. : )

Start saving for the next major service (every 30K mile)... It's going to cost you more than you pay for the car

Stick to the basics; every nation has it's specialty. This is the basics that I try to stick to and it's always reliable:

Italians = clothes
Germans = cars
French = food

fill in the rest.

Yes, but the French women have an undeniable arrogance, unlike the men, ofcourse.
