    Hehe! Dont see that too often! :):)

    Yeah, agree!! Nicole wants one and she has been looking at A LOT of them, even though she is 2 years away from buying one. There are heaps for sale at any given time, so it is always a buyers market with those Porkers. :D:D

    Why? Because it *was* $110k?

    My ex-gf - bless her cute little cotton socks - was a "bargain b*tch" when it came to jewellery, she'd drag me around middle-class joints pointing out stuff that was $200 and now "only $39.95" nudge-nudge.

    I asked her flat out and unequivocally (something like this) - if she walked into one of these shops and saw a trinket listed for $80 which had $800 crossed out above it would she buy it on that basis, she immediately answered "of course! I'd be crazy not to!!"

    I then ran the following scenario by her... If I owned a jewellery shop full of crappy Sportsgirl $5 crappy trinkets, but priced them at $300 would she buy them? She said "no that's crazy!", then I asked what if I put my prices down to $50 for one day only? "yeah - I'd be all over them, what a bargain!".

    :/

    She was cute and funny - and sadly smarter than most of her friends.

    No, because I can afford $92K...........but I cant afford $220K! Simple as that my friend! ;);)

    Dont worry man, I was eye balling the car when it was $110K months and months ago. Thought to myself that I dont really want to finance the entire amount of $110K for that OHOS, so I wasnt too serious about it. Then it dropped to $102K months later, the whole time I have been putting 'extra' money away for a possible Ferrari/swimming pool/4 car garage purchase. :):)

    Now it is down to $92K and the bank account is still growing NICELY. Perhaps I shall wait another 6 months and buy the car cash and offer him $80K if its still there in 6 months time. :D:D

    See what happens......;);)

    No plans to sell the 355C but like anything if I there was an offer that I couldnt refuse - well money talks as the say :).
    In any case, the previous owner has made noises about regretting selling it and asked I give him first right of refusal in case of a sale.

    Really, the problem would be what to replace it with ? there is nothing around in a similar price bracket that I would rather have.

    Nope, not *yet* Offer $75k, let them know your cash in hand, maybe they will come back at $82k......

    Looks great in yellow with those rims but the fog lights look like they might be fill of water? General condition looks average. $$ is way high ??

    HAHA! :)

    Nah, I am not interested anymore or am going to show interest in it anymore until I have the CASH ready to buy it, because I dont want to be called a "gunna" by the biggest wanker on FerrariChat! :D:D

    Yeah, the car looks great in yellow, but the interior and engine bay pics look average. So I dont know what it is *really* like, and for $180K........I DO NOT want to know what it is really like! :p:p

    Mate, part of the fun is looking around. I used to spend hours at our Auckland Ferrari dealership, "just looking" prior to owning a Ferrari. I still spend hours there "just looking". I look around on the net at cars for sale all the time, i'm interested in whats available.

    Maybe i'm gunna.............
















    But maybe i'm not ;)

    yeah of course it is. gunna is just a running joke now. it started when some showing off joker came on here and said he was going to buy and enzo, then later an F40, then later a zonda.

    he didn't like it when i told him to just STFU and talk about it AFTER he buys it. i don't think he ever got over it. needless to say, he still hasn't bought any of those cars (or rented them)

    probably a smart move...he'd have stuck it into a wall by now....but no one would have laughed.

    i crack me up.

    LOL, I sort of figured it was a running joke, sounds like this chap has large dreams, lets hope he takes some driving courses prior to buying these nice toys. :) Maybe he will find one abandoned in an airport somewhere, then become a broker.....

    Now, go buy your own! ;)

    Dont worry, this chap has the dreams and more importantly the 'means' to get what he wants! ;);)

    Whether it be an Enzo, F40 or whatever! Probably only a matter of time, he is still a young chap after all. :D:D
