I'm like a little kid when it comes to planning the next 5 years: Be a writer Be in Medical School Be in Law School Be an actor Travel the World see, it's like a 5 sided coin and I just flip it and one of the above plans will come to its fruition.....or another thing may come up. AHHH who knows. | ||

In 5 years I will be retired! I will be still in the house we are just buying. Will still be married to my lovely wife. Will still drive Ferrari. Will stil have my neighbors wonder if I deal in drugs. Will have additional Ferraris in my collection. A TR is on the horizon. I will hopefully do what others do: Work for fun not for money. | ||

I must have misread the question... Who are you going to do in 5 years? | ||

How true William, how true. Going to college there is like shooting yourself in the foot. There's nothing like the nice and dirty Jersey girls. | ||

Solly , who cares what CT women like ?  They sukk & not in the way we like LOL | ||
| Kendall Kim (Kenny)
|
CT women like Range Rovers, J. Crew, khakis and whatever else that is preppy, they're on the conservative side | ||
| Steven J. Solomon (Solly)

William, I must accompany you on a future trip to Argentina. What do Connecticut women like? | ||

Ideally I'll be a pornstar. That seems to be more of a Lamborghini lifestyle though so I'm not sure. In 5 years (24) I'll be out of college so I presume that I'll be working, probably for a relatively large investing company. I'll be closing in on getting ready to go to graduate school. Most likely I'll still have only the 308. I don't think I'll be ready to buy another Fcar by that time. I don't think he'll be old enough for that life crisis thing to really kick in, but I have been working on getting the old man into a Vette again or possibly a Cobra replica. Then I could borrow it all the time. Damn father, so cagey, I'll get him eventually though. | ||
| Mr. 001 (Racer_001)

I'll be 21 like Kennyh. And I'll have a really nice car. Hopefully a Small Block Chevy powered modern musclecar/ponycar. And or a faster sport compact for 'easy' driving... or not... | ||

I;m not an agressive player, I just happen to know that Argentine chicks really dig wealthy US men | ||
| Rob Lay (Rob328gts)
|
I've met William once and he comes across as a reserved quiet thoughtful person. Not quite the image of an aggressive player, but maybe that's his secret. William, set up a party and I'm there. I would prefer your CT house since they probably won't let me take my rubber band gun to Argentina. Although, I have heard the scenery there is wonderful. JJ | ||

William, my dear - Five years from now your mansion will have a big sign like McDonalds out front....and the arches over your bed.... "Over 1 million Served" LOL you are certainly a character - and I say that without disrespect | ||
| William H (Countachxx)
|
Nika, Hef has always been 1 of my role models since I started reading Playboy around 11 Now I figured out how to recreate the MANSION at my apt in BA, I call it Playboy Mansion South u guys r invited if u dont mind a little rioting of course u married guys will have some rioting to deal with when u get home LOL | ||

Still a fed sending men and women into space but now earning 26 days of vacation time a year (in addition to federal holidays). Still riding 200 or so miles a week on a bike remembering the old days when I had a spare tire around my gut. Perhaps owning a second home in Boston. Owning another Ferrari (TR, 330, or 246 would be nice) or something else (Lotus Elise, Lotus Esprit, Viper, 911). | ||
| Nika (Racernika)

I think William (aka Hefner) follows the "practice makes perfect" motto.....lol | ||
| Willis Huang (Willis360)

William H, If you want a child, just adopt one. Probably the cleanest way. | ||
| Mark (Study)
|
Add another hobby. I'm going to start a small modeling business. I realy don't care if it makes money or not. I've always loved photography and beautiful women. Might be a fun side-business to have Besides might be a way write-off my play-time expenses of dating, beach trips, and exotic cars. | ||
| Nika (Racernika)
|
I'll have my 355 F1 Spyder (yellow of course) and will finally have an organised closet! www.racerchicks.com will have some sort of revenue and the site will sponsor some contingency program for female racers and a scholarship program for young racerchicks. and if by chance I'll be in need of a mini-van....it better be supercharged.....with cool wheels and race suspension. | ||

starting to think about having a son within 5 years LOL I just have to figure out how to have 1 without the wife/marraige thing | ||
| Bob Campen (Bob308gts)
|
I will still be walking out to garage just to look at my 308 ( and others ), still happy to be one of the select few to own a Ferrari. | ||
| Richelson (Richelson)
|
I would like to be enjoying my 308, have a good amount of $$$ in the bank or invested. Maybe live near the ocean. | ||
| Nunja Bitness (Jaxfl)
|
Five years from now I'll be shivering in the woods hoping that the radiation kills me soon. I'll wonder which of the people I knew survived the nuclear blasts. I'll think back to when people owned nice things like Ferraris, homes and food. | ||
| Michael A. Niles (Man90tr)
|
Still having tons of fun. Driving my TR, flying my twin engine airplane. Would have added a 288GTO or F40. And a jet or maybe the fastest turboprop in the world. Or maybe I'll do none of this but I will still be having fun whatever I am doing. | ||
| arthur chambers (Art355)
|
I'll still have the 355, but there will be the 360 replacement (I'm already on the list), with an older 12 cylinder perhaps a 250 GTO replica. Probably a 998 Ducati with Showa Forks and mag wheels, with the Stage B kit in it. I'll be retired, having sold my house in SF, with houses in Tahoe (I already have that) and a house in either Mexico or Florida. | ||

Same here...the 308 will almost certainly still be in my garage; as will the '79 MGB Roadster (first car I ever owned -- paid cash for it on my 16th birthday). These cars have way too much sentimental value. Like William H (Countachxx), I also have a soft spot for the Lamborghini Countach -- dreamed of owning one for about as long as I dreamed about the 308. Hopefully, this will become a reality (as did the 308). The Countach (especially the 5000 QV) makes me tingle everytime I see one (just like the 308 does). As far as location goes: don't plan on moving anytime soon (just moved in 3 years ago) -- plenty of room for now. Would love to live on the water (my wife's dream) with at least a 6 car garage (my dream) -- oh, and a house too . We plan on keeping the kids too . Our oldest will be well into her teen years by then, and our son will be roughly 10. Wow, I'd better stop this, it's making me feel old! Hobbies -- same as now probably: cars, carshows, art, & music (drummer mainly). For the most part -- wife, kids, work, & cars will still be taking up most of my free time (not always necessarily in that order though). Wow, that was fun rambling on like that -- very therapeutic -- and didn't even have to pay a psychiatrist! | ||

garage is already filled with 2 512TRs, 86 Countach, 68 Vette, 92 Mitsu 3000GTVR4, 84 308QV. I'll add a Viper GTS & Porsche 993turbo, maybe an F40 for my 40th Bday or my dream car a Porsche 911GT1 Living? Maybe Buenos Aires, Argentina if they dont go into full on civil war, Probably buying an apt in Miami this year with Martin's help. I'll probably add a small apt in SW CT & who knows, maybe Marbella, Spain or Paris Hobbies racing , skiing, travel, chasing women same as ever | ||

Nasdaq = 15000 DJIA = 45000 My portofilio has me retired at 34 Garage in Switzerland (Possibly Lugano area): F40 BMW M3 SMG Newest Merc C55 AMG Bentely Merc G-Wagon AMG Saleen S7 Bentely Azure Mini S Garage on my Olive/Lemon grove in Italy(somewhere on the Amalfi coast or in Sardegna): 550 Barchetta Newest BMW M5 Merc G-Wagon AMG Mini S (hopefully a convertible by then) Pagani Zonda If the market doesn't turn out that way and the economic crisis we're in today sticks around for a few more years, then I'll probably just be driving what I can afford! Spend money everyone....it's trickle down economics!!!!!!!! | ||
| Greg Owens (Owens84qv)

I'll still have my 308 (I can never let go of my first Ferrari), and I will have added a Silver/Tan 355 GTS to the stable. My obsession with Ferrari will have progressed to an unbearable state for my wife. I pity her. | ||
| Danny R. West (Dan_West348ts)

5 Years from now... I'll be 5 years from retirement. I'll still have my 348ts. Instead of more Ferraris I'll be purchasing an RV bus. Attached to the back of the RV will be a trailer that my 348ts will be mounted on. The wife and I will pull up to some camp ground around America, unload the 348 and tour the local scene. When I get too old to drive I will sell the RV and give the 348 to my son who, by the way, is currently 12 years old. Dan | ||

I will have added a 512 Boxer or a TR and a Maserati Quattroporte to the stables. I will probably still have the 308. I'll be living in Atlanta with my wife at the time. Hobbies? I collect spores, fungus and molds. I also plan on inventing a time machine to go back to the mid 60s to buy every damn Ferrari I can, and 3 or 4 Bugatti Royales, a GT40 or 3, and a few Aston DB4 GT Zagatos. I'm in a weird mood, OK? | ||

Interesting topic... Same boring work. Garage(s): Ferrari 360 Modena successor, F40, Daytona, Range Rover Where to live? Still in Seattle area. Larger home on acreage with space for a separate garage to house the Ferraris, a workshop, and a detailing bay. Wife? Dunno. Girlfriend? Definitely. Kids? Hmmm...(scratching head). | ||

5 years from now: I will be 21, in college. I should have my first sports car by then- hopefully a Mazda RX7 or a 3000gt... I have promised myself that I will have a Ferrari by 30, and 3 by 40 . I cant see a reason why I wont continue my obsession with cars. | ||
| Rob Lay (Rob328gts)

In the garage? Ferrari 328 gts Ferrari 330 2+2 Ferrari 348/355 Challenge 1970 Mustang Boss 302 2005 Ford F-350 2007 BMW 540 Sport Where will you be living? Still in Dallas area, but I would like a small ranch over in the Keller/Southlake area with a huge garage and workshop. Hobbies? Still basically the same ones. I'll be a little more serious about the car racing and working on cars though. |
