    hehehe ! No more lifts..a new garage/casa is in the works that will eliminate the need for lifts. My wife thinks I'm nuts...I've spent more time obsessing over the garage layout than anything else.

    you know parking those cars out in the driveway is very dangerous and irrisponsible... i know if i was driving past i surely would have had a crash :) i'm supprised there wasnt a 10car pileup out the front.
    amazing collection.

    when your taking some more photos, could you please include one of the roof lining, i know i'm wierd, but i love the stiched lining, i'm pretty sure most people wouldnt have seen it or noticed it.

    Thats why I didn't park them in the street ! I've seen too many of those cop videos with distracted drivers :):):)

    I'll take some liner pics as well, its much nicer than the F40 one.

    Your stable is unreal. The GT3RS just seems so inferior (and we all know that's not the case)...

    Hey Jas, you dark horse you! You kept it pretty quiet about acquiring an F50. Congrats man! I was this close to buying an F50 about 1 month ago!! However I decided to buy a Swiss chalet instead! Although you can have plenty of fun in the Alps I'm not so sure if it rates as high as an F50 drive.!

    Congrats on the Chalet Alex, I am sure that will give you years of fun and enjoyment ! The thought of your F40 menacing the Swiss passes excites the mind !!! If you ever get a chance, post some pics of the view from the Chalet window...I'm sure that is just beautiful !

    As far as keeping the F50 quiet, there was no point talking about it until it was a done deal...it was fairly easy as there was no middle man and just a straight forward person to person agreement :)

    I drove an Enzo on the Sakhir circuit in Bahrain...I was really impressed with how nimble it was, and very easy to chuck around. I came away with a much better appreciation of the car and I'm a big fan of it. It helps that the owner was an incredibly nice fellow and his ownership joy was written all over his face !!!!

    As with most of the comments here, they are just appreciative of the inherent beauty of Ferraris and enjoy seeing them out. They tend to wander over to the garage if its open and I have struck many friendships that way just sharing the passion. I cannot recall any negative stuff at all, and I guess it would take a real grouch to be critical of seeing them out :)
