    His tweets have been quite vague. The only fact he has confirmed is that he isn't there to buy a 458. Knowing him it will be something pretty interesting. Here's a sample of his latest tweets:


    Love it here at Maranello. 6 a.m. and they are already out testing Fast Fiats !!! Esprssoe please !!!!!!!! 6:24 AM Sep 27th via ÜberTwitter

    Lots of cobweb heads not getting the Fast Fiat joke. Will reserve car irony for later in the day from now on. FYI - Fiat owns Ferrari !!! 6:48 AM Sep 27th via ÜberTwitter

    Have been awake since five. Combination of breakkie show body clock and Santa coming early. X. 6:49 AM Sep 27th via ÜberTwitter

    I saw this thread title and read Chris Harris ... realized it was about the DJ ... not the Evo reviewer and was disappointed.

    I want to hate him, but I just can't, lucky lucky man.
    To be honest though I thought his recent clear out was to finance the purchase of the 57' Testarossa that failed to reach sale at auction. Already having owned a re-body of it I thought an original would sit nicely along side the GTO and the SWB........... oh hang on, yep, I hate him
