    Lol! You are that "neighbour"! and who's a kid???

    Although I personally Don't own one, I've had neighbours who trade in every year, so basically I've been in every F car around, done the Mosport F track days, F1 tour, so I'm coming from just a liiittle bit experience.

    It's easy to say you know about F cars when your mechanic faxes you a report and .jpg pics. lol!!

    Listen, the sooner you admit that you can't handle my competitive discussions, the sooner you can stop attacking me like a scared raccoon.

    The fact is (IMO)...F355 was and is still a great car, I've had the pleasure of driving in about 10 different cars, (F1, spyder, challenge) and they all perform fantastically. Just make sure you get the Challenge Grille on the rear! and let the Ball Busting continue...:D

    Listen Lucas, i am very happy for you and your family / your nieghbors. And it would be great if my daddy had those toys for me to enjoy when i was growing up. The reality is my old man was just another construction worker from the boat.

    I take great pride in everything i have accomplished on my own. I dont need to run from anyone...im the real deal. My toys are my own, not my daddys.
    I have owned a many cars...i have been in the ferrari world before 30 (ALL BY MYSELF) no help from anyone, i think this says alot. Not just about me, but anyone that makes an accomplishment in growth

    You should really look deep within yourself Lucas and ask yourself this question..."Im i the real deal" I can say that....can you ? But try saying without daddy behind you.



    As for the 355, i love the car....hoping to add one to my stable oneday...until then, i hope prices continue to drop :D

    That comment belongs in the "Are all Ferrari owners *********s" thread. You just bolster that conception.

    I guess for you, owning a Ferrari makes you the "real deal".

    Intelligence and knowledge does it for me, and I'm stongly positive in both. I can say that....can you?

    Love the way you twist and change topics....so i guess you/ your neighbors buying and selling every year and every new model, and you at F1 tours and the rest makes you a more real deal? lol !!

    Its obvious you dont get what im saying.

    No sweat Lucas !! :D

    I never said I was the "real deal", what I'm saying is that I am very confident in my knowledge and depth of F cars, F1, etc. and I wouldn't continue to "post battle" with you if I wasn't.

    No No No, I get what you're saying. Because you worked your rear off for many years, and made good investments, you bought an old F and did it all on your own. Congratulations to you and all the other 5000 people in Canada who did the same thing...maybe one day I'll be #5001.

    You're putting out all these numbers, which were just proven wrong. There's no reason why you shouldn't realize that other people may know more than you. I just don't like the fact that you are telling me that I'm a "kid" (30yr) who takes cellphone picks of his neighbours garage, and doubt my knowledge when I've proven it on many occasions here and on other threads.

    I invite you to come see what it is that I do, then maybe I can gain your confidence! Just don't judge people who you don't know anything about.

    Maybe we should have some sort of F trivia to sort out the winners and losers....? :D

    geezus h...You guys are too much. 355 are at a premium right now here in Canada. It does not matter what the price is in the USA because you cannot bring them across anymore. You wanna play you gotta pay..thats all there is to it.

    Of course be careful what you buy, that goes without saying no matter what you want to purchase. You must also consider the cars are now 12 years old if you start from the 95 model year. Until the 355 can be brought in Canada legaly this is the market you must deal in. Yes they are over inflated, but Canada does not have the number of 355's the US has, not even close. Take that into consideration as well. Demand is high, GOOD cars are scarce, so the prices are up.

    360's is a wait an see game right now. They are falling at a steady rate, and the amount of cars reflects this. There are a TON of 360's on the market, and the price reflects that. I know of about 15 of them for sale right now..all range from 150k, to 225k..take your pick..

    your knowledge on fcars is funny, you base it on neighbors and what you hear, not the reality of the economy of the time...yes you are correct on some but not all. For the record my old fcar now, was not old when i purchased


    What numbers are you referring too ? the 348/328 numbers there alomst close. i always realize if someone is correct. As for the what you do, Lucas i wish you well in whatever you do. I have people (freinds , aquaintences) like you that i know.

    They dont have kids, but they seem to have a view of how to raise kids, yet they dont know the reality.

    The reality is running a business and having dozens of employees is difficult, I do it everyday, dealing with customers and employees, and trying to collect recievables is only half the battle. I know this reality very well.

    In a year or two when I'm ready to buy my first F, it probably would be a 355, maybe I'll have to start this thread again to help my problem, because they will have all dissapeared in Canada by then!

    :D


    And why TF would you start a thread about me Flavio?

    These days in business, you don't thank a customer for giving you a job (order), you thank a customer for not f%cking you.



    And that's what this Forum is all about.....

    Hey, you can't be the only a$shole around here......:D:D:D

    I won't get into details, but our business climate is ALOT like that unfortunately! Alot of large contracts and purchase orders being unpaid...its common to collect recievables in 6,8, even 1 year!

    Its good in a bad way..........you learn alot about people and the way they conduct their own business, and you see why some people are just out to f%ck you.
