    IMHO, there can be a huge variation in the way otherwise identical Ferraris drive. Owners may have spent lots of money, the car may be shiny and clean, but some only deliver 90% of the experience.

    You can't treat them as a commodity, nor can you assume an expensive car will be a better drive than a cheap one.

    The 365GT4 is a good drive too. Not a sports car, but a characterful and capable grand tourer.

    Sadly, they'll always be undervalued and as a result, usually under-maintained.

    Why not offer a straight swap? He gets a car that should be a little easier to sell and you get an entry to V12 carby rallies.:)

    Yeah he "owns" 24 cylinders of Ferrari... Instead of three V8s (like a bogan) he shoulda got a V12 and two 246s. :D

    normally that has been my experience with them...but this one advertises well. probably something dad should have bought me instead of the 328.

    why should i let him make so much profit? :) the ones i saw at the time were much more expensive than this one. has this got the same type carbs as yours with the easy to get to jets?

    i'll see what i can do.
