    Actually I was talking about my 355, not a 348. My 348 did not have the same creaks and shakes as my 355 either. I believe that Vincent on this board, who had purchased my old 348 saw my 355, as did another guy, I believe his name was also Allen. They can vouch for the condition of my 355. Also, keep in my mind, my 355 was a SPider.

    13.078 for the 355. I don't know if the nsx was modified (my Japanese is a little rusty). I tihnk with some better shifting the 355 could run a 12.9

    Yes the NSX was modified, it has twin turbos and nitrous! Those 355's are rocket ships! And btw, that is not a true 1/4 mile track.

    Man you are missing out, you are not a predator.

    As long as the girl is got a nice shaped butt, nice legs (no chicken legs), clean and not long skinny toes, with a well proportioned body, good teeth and no acne scars, then she is all game.
    Understand that Ferrari is una macchina latina di carattere latino and not drag racers that equal more to premature ejeculators.

    Umm, and we care what Allen, the lone dissenter thinks why? I personally feel that it is p*ss poor to insult another man's choice in cars and he has done that several times. Therefore, much his opinions like his drivel is worthless. Of which I am sure extends far beyond the Fchat.

    HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAAH no acne scars means shes game


    on the 355 discussion, the 355 is a timeless car in its beatiful design, phenomenal handling, and sound/experience with a tubi. Ive only driven a couple of spiders and the one with a tubi made all the experience different. My only complain is that the pedals are too close together so you have to take of your shoes if they are not narrow. My impressions were that the car was a delight at high revs, although since the car was not mine I was shifting very gently. So long story short if u know how to drive it it is very quick and fun, but its most definitely not the fastest car in the world off the line nor anything close. In fact I feel an M3 is faster off the line. However comparing this or a Subaru STI is just an insult because they are in different levels. On that same hand I can mod an STI and burn gallardos all day, it still doesnt make that fast ****box(STI) a nice car or anything of that sort

    Allan, what are you going to get next?

    Why don't you consider one of the following: F40/F50/Enzo/Carrera GT/Koenigsegg CCR/Pagani Zonda/McLaren F1?

    They're about the only cars which will take your ownership experience up another notch from the Murcielago...

    F40 is nice, but now, everytime I see one, seems not to have aged well for me. The build quality is pretty bad.

    I hate the F50. The Carrera GT, Ive gotten new found respect for. Since prices have come down, I wouldnt say that seeing one in my garage would be a bad idea.

    Pagani Zonda.... Thats something I want. Koenigsegg not really interested in, Enzo's seems to be coming down in price, but still way too expensive for me, and Maclaren not interested in. Much rather have a Veyron.

    Other cars I have an interest in are the Ford GT, Imsa Widebody Gallardo, and the New Murcielago 640.
