    I love my F40 and it is my favorite. Among my other cars, my 360 spider is the most fun to drive with the top down. Let's hear it from you....I know your F40 isnt the only car you drive...:)

    You finally found the 360 Spider, did you get an F1 or 6Speed Manual.

    Cars actually driven, as opposed to toys? Audi A6 Avant most of the time. And, in a week or two, a 599.

    F40 is fantastic but the 288GTO is beautiful! Ford GT (uprated to 610bhp) is great fun. FXX the best........

    Sorry, forget that.

    1968 Fiat 500L is the best!

    what is your feeling to the CGT??
    ... I had the pleasure to drive one long time ago .. but I want to say ,against other opinions, that it isn't that touchy to drive how a lot of other drivers say

    the car is very handy and yes ... you could get the feeling that the car talks with you in some way because you get so much of informations from it

    cheers,
    MRFLO

    97% of my driving is CayenneTT. The other 3% is divided among F40,550,348ts,250GT*,355C,FordGT,GT3,S1Etype,SLK55AMG and Shifter Karts.

    Favorite? Most fun=shifterkart; to which, by no coincidence, the F40 is most similar.

    and here I thought you drove a CAT?

    Me... 550M when I want to cruise, Ford Dually when I want to muscle my way around town. 348 Challenge when I want to look in the garage. ;)

    Well done on the 550 there Wes! Funny thing, I actually drove mine last night for the first time in months. What a fabulous car. Nothing else has that perfect balance of sophistication and aggression. And with the right exhaust you never want to put the windows up!

    I can't come Saturday, but want to see it soon. Is it black&low?

    E55 Estate now that I have a new baby. Renault Clio 172 Cup Sport for city driving. 599 - the new addiction (I was terminally bored with highly modified 550 which I sold). 288 GTO and Daytona for Sunday touring. CGT for high speed touring in China. 997 GT3RS (may also become an addiction) and 348 GTC for track days (I just sold my 430 Challenge). Most favourite car by far is my Formula Renault - almost 8,000kms of use in 2006 so far. But any car loses to a motorcycle in good weather riding with friends

    You own 2 of the three car i love most: the F40 and the Lagonda (the other my dream car is the Countach 5000 QV).

    You are definitely my hero :) !

    It's strange,some people think that the Lagonda is ugly...eheh,this is a crazy world!
    I see in your profile that your Lagonda is a 1983 one...that series had a CRT dashboard,if i remember correctly.
    Is hard to find the parts for this beauty?

    Hey hey hey... I know personaly that quite a few of us have done Ferrari rallys, myself included. Its tough to find a nicer day than crusing the countryside, and seeing whose car is quickest through the back-roads. :) ;)

    Did anyone else chuckle when they saw a Jag hauling an F40?
