I think Clyde should jump into a Ferrari 355
I voted to fix Cara, I loved that thing when I saw it. If its not fixable, my personal choice is a 355.
+1!!! This man knows what he is talking about! Even so, I voted to buy Jawad's car - if Cara is in fact a goner, Jawad's 308 is a sweet car, and I know its had a lot of the issues worked out, so why not keep it in the family.
I voted to fix Cara. That car is not totalled and it would be a shame not to save such a beautiful car. 355's are okay, but they don't have the soul of a 308. A nice 308 has grace, style and beauty that the moderns just don't have IMHO. Fix Cara. She deserves it!!
Thanks for the kind words Dave. Let me make one thing clear, I'm a big fan of Cara -- she was a beautiful 308 and if Clyde can get her back on the road in fine shape, I will be nothing but delighted. I also LOVE my 308 and agree that it is incredibly soulfull (and in my humble opinion, STILL the most iconic Ferrari there is, but that's a whole other argument I can't get into here). I would love nothing more than to keep it myself, but, since I want a 355 and can't afford both, the next best thing would be to keep it in the East Coast Fchat family. Anyway, whatever Clyde decides, we just want to see you back on the road!!! Cheers, J.
The 355 was a big step foward for Ferrari and is a great car.......but....Fix Cara, if you can Clyde...she's beautiful and from another generation. I guess I'm impartial...since I am having an engine rebuild done on my Khamsin right now...
Khamsin's are nice. If I can rebuild Cara, I'll will. GTBs are just too rare and I'm attached to mine. This thread was a "what if I can't" type thread.
