LOL, Jordan, i was referring to femininity as part of the car; there's a certain enhancement given to a car when something about it retains a (stereotypical) feminine quality - but i'm right there with you, on the other thing... That orange Diablo looks sweet - i think it'd be awesome if we could make it down there, that would be great, thanks...  |

Im all for exotic women but Id prefer more traditional colors on my exotic cars. Although, I saw this Lambo at a dealership in Newport Beach (Ill take you to it when you come out if you have time) and it is striking and pretty gorgeous! http://www.newportautosport.com/ The car itself: http://www.newportautosport.com/lamborghini_frame_set.htm The picture doesnt do it justice but its bright metallic orange. |

Photos are bad quality, but the Diablo is actually purple. I used to have a photo of the real car and color it was modeled after on my computer but I cant seem to find it. It looks better on the real car...not so feminine  |

Jordan, that's an awesome collection...! The Muira & Countach look great... It's not the size of the collection, rather what's in it; and you certainly have an awesome collection... Thanks for posting shots... That Diablo - is it metallic pink...? |

I found one on ebay but the seller e-mailed me and said he accidently broke it so that deal fell through and I got his porsche 911 targa instead. This one I found at a tiny kiosk outside a popular theatre/shopping complex and hangout spot here in Socal. Its made by Maisto |

Jordan, Where did you get that 348? It's in the background of every shot save one. I have a soft spot for them and would like to find a nice model. |

Of course it is! Im thinking about getting another one. I gotta get more Ferraris in my collection! DESperately! Maybe get some nice other Ferrari collectables and decorate my bedroom into a nice stable --worthy of housing a nice collection of 1:18 Fcars. My currents wants are: 365 Daytona 50s TR 80s TR 250 LM 288 F40 355/355 challenge 308GTB QV (on order...hopefully get here soon unless i got screwed by the preorder) Enzo That should be pretty nice for a small scale collection. As a nice summer project Im also planning on building my own 1:18 scale model if I can find a nice Fcar on ebay or something. |

Hey I got a few pictures of the Countach (with wing) and Muira for you. My collection is TINY compared to you guys but I really just started it...with the exception of the F50s which I got for a birthday present the year they came out. It will expand though. Im going to add some nice vintage Ferraris as a priority and then go for everything else.
