    Actually, I think it's moderately possible you have one. It doesn't take much to lease or buy any car now a days. I don't get too impressed with late model cars.

    Look, lots of people took you seriously and tried to give helpful advice. Lots of posts to you continually advised you to do more homework as your meandering was hard to bare. You either are a gozillionaire who can buy a newer Ferrari with pocket change so was scattered about it, a guy with some money who had it burning a hole in your pocket and was scattered about it, a liar, or a complete idiot. I don't know which.

    There have been a ton of threads from people who are buying their first Ferrari and they are all the same, whether they buy one or not. They have a focus and detailed questions, not general stuff like yours. Your approach was way off the wall compared to all the rest. That is why the community is calling shenanagins on you. (BTW, Do we have a spell check here? LOL).

    For the time spent posting to you, you owe the experts better than what you've said. You should give the last few vin #'s if you truly can't manage a digital picture. Hell, when I bought my Lotus in 2001 when no one had a pic phone, I posted pics to the Europa group from a borrowed camera, IN MY DARK GARAGE to thank them for 6 months of questions and evaluations from them of the cars I passed on. Tagible proof that they helped me buy my car was a polite 'thank you' that I owed the Europa community.

    If you have the car, you are rude and ungreatful. If you don't then just admit it and move on, or disappear. This self rightousness is old; we've seen the act many, many times before.

    Ok forget it, i'm out of here, you guys win. I'll just let you pretend I didn't get the car. Everyone will be happy, this isn't worth the crap. If you can't be patient then fine that isn't my problem. I don't care.

    Who said anything about expensive? Decent digital cameras can be had for 150$. All the community wants is to see a photo of your car. Nothing to do with egos or pretention.

    So after reading this thread, all I can conclude is that you're a big BS'er.

    What I find interesting is that you have a join date in the middle of January, yet you instantly understood what I meant with my grafiqdesign reference. You are plagarizing straight out of his published works.

    He did use the patented GQ "he-he" phrasology.

    No joking about leasing a 6 year old Ferrari, it would take very little cash flow to be a playa.

    Our assumptions are all too true. By the way, I love the Ferrari Bike! He's got the camera for the goat, but not the car.

    Just for sh!ts and giggles, does anyone know how much a 1999 Modena would be to lease?

    Absolute cheapest way I'm talking about, I'd like to know the absolute bottom entry fee for being a playa.

    Actually, my 5 year old niece got a digital camera for Christmas. $25+tax at Target.

    Playa can't swing a twenty?

    Hmmmmmm....all is quiet.

    BTW, he's been around a few times since last evening. At least he had the common sense to STFU when the community finally nailed him with his lies.

    C'mon leave the guy alone...........I'll post the pics of my 288 GTO next time I have enough money to pay for the tank of gas to drive me to the store to buy the camera. J/K, I only have a 308.

    I think he's a troll too. After all, folks gave him advice, me included, he then went out and bought a car, or so he claimed, and then, after asking about pics, get's all skittish. That's weird. You would think anybody who just bought their first ferrari would be delighted to share pics with others, particularly after leaning on the board for buying advice. (I'm not referring to the "secret" owner who does not want any noteriety- cause i just don't think that's the case here). Oh, well, he may have used us, boys, but, the outcome is still:
    US:=owners of exotics, including Ferraris Tool =he's holding his in his hand.

    You do know that both my Ferraris are about 70 miles away from you right now. They do need exercising. ;)
