    It only takes one! :(

    Reminds me of a time when a member who isn't know for looking after their cars got a new one and someone piped up "better have a good look now because that's the best it's ever going to be!" :D

    I think 360C put that plate on it when he owned it? Anyway, I agree it is an extremely appropriate plate for the car!

    Yay - just got WA Plates GTP 355 :D

    excellent...well done.

    that can be your excuse for going slower...different aerodynamics due to WA plates.

    I'm really starting to like Berlinetta Boxers... a lot. This should come as welcome news to current BB owners, because as soon as I start liking something, the prices go into the stratosphere! :D

    I'm with you RMV,they have that "can't wait to motor" look.Interiors are far more sporty and detailed than 3x8's too.

    I just want to say that this thread had caused me to fall in love with the 275.

    That dark silver/grey is just a perfect car.

    Not only that, it is a great spec. Long nose, torque tube and 6 carb. Very nice condition; but not so flawless that you would be afraid to drive it.
    Very gorgeous car.

    all those big name,dollar boys knew of it and old J.M goes in and pays good dollars for it and well its jumped about 200k since he bought it.Reckon some of those guys need to be less tight and more like J.M and have vision.

    Yes.................and no. The thing with JM is he has the knowledge and talent to do all the work himself. He also has decades worth of contacts around the world to find all the right bits. As a result he can make many projects economical that most other folks would be deep underwater with.

    Hats off to JM, he has owned some of the most stunning examples of Ferrari and other marques, many of which have never even made Oz shores.
