    Same here. Interesting all of a sudden these folks with less than 15 posts on Ferrari Chat are using "+" sign regarding Jim. Wonder what rocks they crawled out of?

    Reported by people who have bought one and were told that time and that
    Porsche will make it official at The Frankfurt Auto show.

    Stunning if True.

    I haven't seen it asked, do those exhaust pipes mean the 918 can't sit outside in the rain?

    It has a double lining so water falls into the second lining and pours harmlessly into the engine bay .

    I really hope i will love it, I'm backing off the Huayra for the 918.

    I love the exclusivity and craftsmanship of the Huayra, and the pagani has been holding great resale value. Besides these I prefer the 918

    I hope porsche will make my worries disappear :)

    The way I look at it my cars are for using and fun , not where I make my money .

    If you think same you will love it , a huayra is a kit car compared to these 3 IMO .

    According to my engineer friend who is working on the F150 project, Ferrari are "really hoping owners drive the LaFerrari more than the Enzo." He told me he personally believes that the car is much more useable than the Enzo. He is very proud of the fact he is part of this project and he said the car needs to be driven to be really enjoyed. Interestingly, he told me Ferrari have yet to do a full test of the car at the ring, but they've done some "informal time runs" and the results have been "very promising".

    Does "informal time runs" mean simulations?

    They've been there with a car, they've tested a bit there as well as several other tracks around Europe. I'm not sure they've done a full 10/10ths run yet, my friend made it seem as though they hadn't yet.
