Coming back to the F crowd

Well yesterday was d day (delivery) to the new owner of my Lamborghini Gallardo. New owner is a fellow f-chatter and flew in from the Midwest with his father to drive it back. Now my car space is vacant and looking for a new ride but having trouble finding something. This morning I went in the garage and all I heard was crickets for real reminding me of the empty space. I want a 458 but will wait a bit I have a few options scud and 430 spider but not sure what I will do.

a little too much for a 430. I would buy a f1 in a 430 if I went that way. 6 speed in a 360 for sure. I might hold out a bit for what I want which is a 458.

 

The bright orange side is one thing but the dark dark side is another. Just an FYI you saw and heard that car it had a Kesoneg f1 straight system very pricy and apparently the first in the US on a Gallardo. It had bypass cats so the reason it sounded so awesome. The original owner contacted me about buying it back but I already had a deposit on the car.

 

Nice Garage! I actually drove a scud yesterday that I am considering black with grey stripe.

 

I always knew you were a tuner at heart kidding yeah I knew that was the road you went down.

 

Was your car a e-gear or Stick? I think the stick gives better performance in the Gallardo. I drove a supperlegera egear and felt my Gallardo was a better experience with the stick. To be totally honest I really liked the car it was flashy and loud as hell and I did love driving it. In the end I let it go because I am more a Ferrari person and I was spotted everywhere and it drew tons of attention being the only version of that orange around. It was more attention than I really cared for at times.

Although when I drove the scud I was not as impressed? I was expecting craziness and a monster but it was not my experience at all. It felt great being behind the wheel of a Ferrari but I was not that wowed. Maybe because I experienced the 458 that made me nervous when driving it the exact same way as the scud the other day or possibly the Lamborghini was just more powerful making it feel like a step down. Kind of like a restaurant you experience the first time that was awesome and you cant wait to get back but when you do its just not as impressive and you are left disappointed.

I may be going for a GT type car now not sure what to do looking at Bentley, Maserati, Porsche, and BMW M series cars.

Time for a change but who knows I might change my mind later today. I kind of wish Privatos was still around.

 

Actually drove a Maserati Gran Turismo S F1 yesterday for about an hour around Charlotte. I really liked the car and might do a deal today on it. We will see I am considering it as my daily driver.

I agree it was a pleasure meeting and spending some time with both of them when they came to pick up the car and drive back home. I find most F chatters with the exception of one on here are really good people. I have sold all my cars to F chatters.
