    I usually don't like to drive the Ferrari in heavy rain or snow because of the lack of traction control. But I don't mind getting the car wet, frozen or dirty. They are not made out of chocolate and meant to be driven on the road.

    Salt is the only exception. But that is bad for all cars.

    I also drove my 348 last WE...i did 250 Km :)
    And soooo happy.
    I don't like to drive it when the weather is rainy, and i HATE salt.

    I know the Belgians and French (frogs) don't hit it off too well but I didn't know you regularly de-frog your cars! :D

    Only the English rain does that! The Dutch rain sticks the salt to the car!

    Yes that's right!
    Porsches seem to have difficulties on steep hairpin passes with the handbrake on.
    They even made the handbrake too good!!!!!!
    This problem would never occur with a Ferrari. You would immediately burn your handbrake.

    Mark,

    It is strange that your handbrake stays in the upright position. That is not normal on a 328!

    Very nice 308 GT4 colour combo with grey/red leather, that's what I like with also black Ferrari and Cartier leather, that's my second favorite colour combo after the more classical Red/Havana one ! Nice pics ! The cockpit looks like a Boeing one (hoops sorry, an Airbus one, that's the European section ;-) ), just amazing ;-)

    Perfect match also reagarding the black Modena in the snow !!
    Love it too !
