    Marry her and tell her to open her own damn door.

    Case closed

    San Diego is the new Cali, sue and buy yourself a fleet, I'll take that worthless car off your hands.

    Case closed

    Better for burning them off.

    Case closed

    Leave them unsnapped and when the cover starts to stretch with age, then start snapping the rear two snaps. Savvy?

    Case closed

    Don't leave your lights on when you aren't in the car and don't let neighbors use your AC adapter in the car to run their electric lawnmowers.

    Case closed

    Those are for passengers not drivers.

    Case closed

    Don't drive your car on the sun and use the B.ritish R.acing I.nvestment C.onsortium K.ingpins tool when your window motors act up

    P.S. Selling blood from other people is a good way of making quick cash.

    Case closed



    If your in 2nd gear you're not having any fun.

    Case closed

    Leave the windows down so you can slide in and out with ease.

    Case closed

    Fiat was bought by Ford and started they're F.I.A.T. program several years ago. F.irst I.mplementation of A.merican T.echnology, get used to it.

    Case closed

    Get a Pap smear all over your front fender. Then the car goes to the wife or a girlfriend and chances are if he had the car before the girl, she's just there for the car anyway and she might be a looker.

    Case closed

    P.S. I said looker, so don't write me letters. It's not my fault your true love is in love with your true love, get over it.

    Case closed still

    Hold the stalk farther in when it connects to the steering column, it may be flexing/ bending just enough that it won't hold. Your second attempt probably works because you're pissed and now slamming the stalk in the direction you want it to travel while probably yelling and swearing at it. What are you? Some kind of maniac?

    Case closed

    You bought "the cheap one" stop whining. If you want a remote for the trunk buy a used Chev four door sedan and switch truck lids. Or just buy the Enzo, get the ride lift as a bonus and if you ever have to put anything in the "trunk", throw it into the air, drive the car around the world at the speed of light and park at the same spot you left and pop open the trunk as you're getting out.

    Case closed

    Well a great big smile intertruxed with joyful laughter is a rare thing nowadays people tend to look and savor those kinds of things. And as for the kids wanting info and pictures of the car without you... getting rejected by kids is sad by at least you won't get sued by their parents if you took them for a ride.

    Case closed

    Strap a solar panel to the roof, don't be lazy save the planet.

    Case closed

    Ford isn't so bad.

    They won't sell me an Enzo because I participate in Ferrari Chat.

    I'll try the second suggestion after I win my paternity suit regarding Anna Nicole's daughter.

    They won't sell me an Enzo because they're all hung up on paying and stuff.

    And "Case closed" is a copy write and trade mark of "Case closed" productions in association with "Case closed still" Group. Your suit about fathering of a small wrecked kid won't compare with the suit you'll be wearing when you suit up in the suit you'll be participating in with my suits and ties. Savvy?

    I added the magic boxes and that helps some, but I'd hate to ever get caught in a sudden shower.

    I may have to do just that! And, I'll paint a confederate flag on the roof and two large "01"'s on the doors!

    Anybody know a good source for custom horn work?

    +1. Can't beleive I took a day off of fchat Saturday, I would have loved to be a part of that classic response by 62 250 GTO. You outta be on stage dude.

    F430 Window switches, just five inches apart... Drivers side is one touch, Pasengers is not, come on. Seems like it could cost Ferrari more just to stock the two diferent peices than to just make them both one touch.

    Invariably I shut off the engine at a gas station, take out the key and get ready to get out, when I remember that the gas filler door needs to be opened with the key in the ignition.

    Tis the same on the 360. I agree but I guess we'll just have to either:
    a. ride with the passenger window perpetually in the UP position
    or
    b. exhaust ourselves holding down the button for a few seconds.

    It's a tough life. The first hundred years are a *****, then it's all downhill.

    Sorry. I didn't know "c*se cl*sed" was copyrighted.
    It will never happen again.

    I'd rather owe the money to you than cheat you out of it. Please send me all the details of your bank account and ID, passwords, etc. so I can send what you deserve.

    PS. The picture in your FC profile looks like a Porsche 944 not a 62 250 GTO. There must be something wrong with my computer software.

    I can't believe you took a day off of FChat Saturday either, you probably wouldn't have been apart of the response due to poor spelling though.

    Unless of course you're being sarcastic, then I oughta tell you, that would have been the reason.

    And why are you being sarcastic? I
    as in out as in leave? Thanks.

    Now I guess you're going to tell me you weren't being sarcastic? And that you aren't sarcastic by nature and you're probably the least sarcastic person you know. That's like me saying, I'm the nicest guy I know, how can I judge that? How can I tell? It's hard to read sarcasm on a computer screen, why don't you go out more and express yourself? Always confining yourself to a basic form of media and self expression like the internet cuts you off from society and most likely caused your high levels of sarcasm to begin with. You can't judge peoples emotions because there aren't emotions in pixels.

    Also having an F430 is a great thing, it can be a source of joy and amusement that you could share with others, pretending to have window switch problems just to get a reply on a web forum demonstrates your lack of outwardgoingness and only hampers your ability to communicate with others even more so than you actually having the car, flying through town shouting from a bull horn. Seriously, I'm only trying to help, I don't know you but I don't have to in order to help my fellow man.

    It's like good posture, if I show you how to achieve good posture and you want good posture then you can have it very easily. Now me for example I can put in very long days so it may seem like I have poor posture when I really don't. It's just like you and the limited way you communicate, your poor delivery of words makes people think you're being sarcastic when you may not be at that given moment, which you probably are but that's the point isn't it?

    Just the fact that you called me "dude" means you don't think a woman would ever desire a 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO and that can be directly attributed to your lack of human contact and inability to relate to others in a meaningful way. This lack of contact, communication and repore just proves how out of touch you are when it comes to your fellow man and woman. So you most likely shield yourself with sarcasm in an attempt to either keep up with what you think your place is in society or you're just a frightened little man who knows he's swimming in the deep end, either way I'm here to help. Self esteem is a big part of what I give to others.

    And you thinking that other people are so stupid because they don't understand that you're not being sarcastic is just another example of you being sarcastic and now you're thinking, "hey, it's a fact, most people are stupid, it's a simple statement of fact". If you don't see the problem in there, then it's going to be a tough, uphill battle for you.

    Making use of poetic irony or dramatic irony from time to time is normal and sometime very satisfying but to just be an arrogant for the sake of putting yourself above others doesn't wash in these times. And the name Strike is soo uppity {I mean come on it that some sort of special mission? Is the Counter Strike player in you that real?} that I know for sure you're a sarcastic little man who writes blurbs on the net about fitting in and taking "days off of a community or group" and are somehow distraught that something remotely funny or different happened while you were away and now you're waiting for a perfect stranger to include you in what was totally a waste of time, effort, bandwidth and thought.

    Then to bash the stranger after the fact and try to come across as aloof when you're actually being cynical just blows me away.

    What do you think you leave behind when you walk down the street of life? When you interact with people? The sweet smell of potpourri? No, you leave bitterness. The rotting stench of bitterness. Do you even make people laugh when you speak to them and I think I'm taking a major leap when I say "talk" because I'm fairly certain that you type to communicate all of the time. I'm guessing that even the strangeness and oddity of coming across you just makes people think that there are too many barriers out there between people and then they just walk away slightly unhappy but mostly empowered that they actually know something now and even if they forget it they can blame it on the barriers in society and they probably won't because they've already forgotten about it.

    When was the last time you passed on a smile? You should be thanking the heavens that you can get through the day with how good you have it, you've got your car and your keyboard, you're all set for life aren't you?

    I think you're a little foggy when it comes to the notion of human nature and interaction. Welcome to the real world, the water's fine, let's go for a swim.

    If you ever want to really talk and improve your life, call me any time during the day or evening at 1 375 555 3409. I would be happy to lead you though the harsh path of adult learning and communication which you soo sorely lack and are mystified by.

    Do you want me to write your eulogy in case you never leave your house and are one day pried from your keyboard and laid to rest separated from your family? Just call the number and let me know.

    The picture is right on the money and it's not a 944. I've had that car for 4 1/2 years which is a record. It's also the only car I've ever owned that I can work on myself... but I CHOOSE not to.

    Also last year my choice of Ferrari changed. I think I've had my fill of old cars, no matter how well they've been taken care of.

    And as for the sarcasm, read above and call the number.
