    Do you need to buy a NEW watch? If u don't mind a preowned one, u can go to:
    http://www.passions.com.sg/

    and check out the Panerai there.
    Owner of the store is a good guy :)

    Any particular model you are looking for?

    Darling, thank you for the "techincal" info. We in Singapore unfortunately doesn't have four seasons or high mountain range to affect & mine ain't no turbo or track car either. In fact, a common fault is getting the distributors & coils wet; our weather. So, once basic settings are right (last 3 items you mentioned), car's good to go. It's just sad that many drivers today don't DIY much. Well, having a garage is a problem, dumping used oil is a big problem & getting nails dirty is another but the worst/best is modern cars don't quite allow us to do much.

    One day, I'll get one that drinks through Carburettors.

    My TR doesn't miss a heartbeat & I've tuned my 911 nicely settling with a nice boom boom sound :) Clutch might still need an adjustment though.

    Harold, I remember Wilson(F348) & gang (F360s) visit a place where they do engine grooming so they can give us feedbacks.

    Did you guys attend the gathering this morning?

    Hey Lung, what's the deal with those pre-owned watches? I like to buy old & used cars but used watches....what do you guys think of the new Ferrari Panerais? I don't like them & kind of preferred the GP series.

    I also don't like the Panerai Ferrari. I had two yellow Fer0011... sold both off.

    Now my watch collection down to basic Panerai models....

    I do like the GP WWTC in steel.

    Lung, did they give you a CD containing the "birth" of your F430? I think Avantgarde got his. I believe the factory welcomes buyers to visit them & tour the facility, have a few days stay @ the small town then swing over to visit Lambo, Ducati & MV Augusta. We should organise a mini tour of Italy's exotics!

    Yes, those last few pics are the heavenly GTOs!!

    Now, that comes to mind again. Buy a new F430 @ S$780K or a classic for the same $ but ultra collectible & quite depreciation proof GTO or F40 (stretch a little)? Think the last two needs full cash out front :(

    A friend just imported a vintage Mercedes & registering it under Classic plate. I'll see how LTA work on that.

    Then there must have been two gatherings... the one u are talking bout Jon, and another informal one at 1 Rochester Park. I was at church praying for a 599GTB so could not attend either one.

    Hi guys, my 355 has been sold.

    I'm not sure who the new owner is but I heard that he has a 997 as well.

    The one @ Rochester, there's a new 360 owner but I'm on duty so can't attend as well. Now, be a good boy & maybe God will answer your prayers :) or is it a white Gallardo Spyder?

    Speaking of that, just had a chat with my NZ friend just now & he says there's a used black Gallardo for only NZ$200K while the new ones are about $350K & they have some of the best roads in the world to drive on....

    i send my cars to carworks... i think they do a pretty good job. the manager kelvin is a good chap and their waiting room is pretty comfy. whilst your car is being groomed, you can enjoy the coffee ( expresso machines). read their many car mags and even has a pretty impressive audio system.

    prices not cheap tho.. but they use zymol and the service is good..

    Wow, this thread is really, really long!

    Are there really so many Ferrari owners in Singapore?

    I'm a Singaporean and I joined a while ago, I'm basically lurking around the Asia and Maserati forum only. Hopefully I can catch up on the discussion here. :)
