    You can pass everything on the road except a gas station. :)

    Lets see. DMOORE Darell You're name right? Darrell Moore. I am not doubting you, but i don't know any genuine SO guy who would have said that. I have heard of some who have a little ego, though, and that might explain why you said it.

    The easy way would be to let post your class number and years served. And for the record, I never served, but have seen what fake seals have done (criminal wrongdoings).



    EDIT slane? d g. m? lol


    EDIT EDIT: You are in San D, right? So it's not Darrell j. in Melbourne.

    Well yeap, you check out. They were pretty quick responding. I still don't know why you 'volunteered' the info you did but I also don't understand alot of things. lol

    To paraphrase Reagan's 'Trust, but verify', 'Trust, and verified'.

    Thank you for putting up with me.....gblogger

    He was sent.

    A thread started by one of "our own" with a half dozen flames and its 100 posts long. A missile test compared to the world wars we had of old.

    Its not who starts it, its who perpetuates it. Someone starts a fire and you yahoo's fan it to burn down umpteen acres.

    At some point in time, we've all pulled into the parking lot or sat in another person's vehicle and prioritized it to our own personal scale of x. Don't believe me? Ask a 308 GT4 owner about that sometime.

    Oh, the exquisite irony. A Lambo guy, with a picture of a lambo with bikini girls leaning over it, with a license plate that says "OTOBEME", going on about how Ferrari owners think too much of their cars...as compared to Lambo owners.

    Oh oh, my side hurts from laughing so much. :D You guys crack me up.

    You want to know the honest truth about the answer to this thread? Buckle up...it ain't gonna be pretty. And it has nothing to do with jealousy. Yes, there are jerks and punks who just cruise car sites tearing down any marque that isn't theirs. But there is no group of owners who are so incredibly proud of themselves because of the car they own than F-car owners. You guys KNOW it is true. Every car site has people telling each other how great their cars are, but you guys take it to a whole new level; a veritable art form of self-congratulation. Not everyone, obviously, but enough to be statistically significant.

    I think Ferraris are awesome, too. Rolling works of art. (And I love Porsches, and Astons, and Z06s, and ...) Plus this site has a good diversity of discussion going on; more so than most, which is why I post here. Lots of cool stuff to read. And there is nothing wrong with loving your car. But there IS something wrong with worshipping it, or thinking it makes you in any way a better person.

    There, I said it. Flame away, but that is the view from the sidelines.

    Keep the shiny side up.

    I posted this in the 640/599 thread but I think it's also applicable here.

    I think there's a broader issue. When Ferrari moved from the 512M to the 550
    IMHO something was lost. I miss a mid 12 as the Top of the line Ferrari.

    I think Lambo has that right. Personally I'd take a 640LP over a 599 but not because of performance simply because the top Lambo looks outrageous and the 599 doesn't. The Lambo is a WoW car the 599 isn't. Making one say Wow upon first sighting is something I think the top of the line Ferrari has lost and that IMHO is a sad thing. The 430 has more wow that a 599.

    As for bashing any car that speaks for itself and people who get off by bashing others are their own punishment.

    I too prefer the Enzo, FXX, 430 and 360 and 355 over the 550,575,599,612 crowd. glad Ferrari is still making a mid engine car that is good looking and fun to drive. The front end Ferrari 12s are GT cars not "sports" cars IMHO. We have a choice and that is good. :)

    I just hate it when they damage the car......

    Breaking parts, pouring stuff on it........or in it....

    I'd just as soon they wait for me to come back out of the club, then we'll get it on!

    The machine didn't do anything after all, it's just a machine.

    Talkin' on the internet? Well, that's just birds squawking in the trees, man.......

    TOP 10 REASONS NOT TO OWN A LAMBORGHINI



    11. There are too many reasons NOT to own a Lamborghini, I can’t stop at just 10.
    10. “Lambugerghinini” is too hard to spel.
    9. When people say “Lambo” it is often confused with a sissified version of Sylvester Stallone movie with a similar name.
    8. Nobody can figure out how to open the doors, especially the owners.
    7. Have to cover your body with motor oil so you can slide in and out.
    6. So uncomfortable to ride in that the CIA uses it as the model for state of the art torture chambers.
    5. Have to go to a special school to learn how to pronounce “Countach.”
    4. You can pass anything on the road except a gas station.
    3. The other 9 Lambo owners and you will victimize each other with identity theft.
    2. People will stop you and ask you “is that a Ferrari? and you sadly have to say “NO”, it’s not a Ferrari.

    And the NUMBER ONE reason why you should not own a “Lambugerghinini” is that so many women will pester you for sex that you will die from exhaustion at a very young age and you will have an exorbitant funeral bill because the mortician will have to go to extraordinary expense to remove that sh*t eating grin off your face. RIP.

    First, I have a serious question. Considering the small window openings and the fact that the doors open up. If you go off the road (God forbid) and land upside down in water, How would you get out? Second, if you think having your Lambo mistaken for a Ferrari is bad. I have had two people mistake my 360 for a Mustang They thought a horse is a horse is a horse.

    I had a '99 Esprit. It was a great car. Lotus just refused to market it.

    If you flip it you have to wait upside down until someone would unflip it.
    If it starts to burn ,tough luck.(like the poor couple in Slovakia last year)

    None of those are funny, and none are anywhere near a good reason not to own a Lamborghini. They don't even make sense.
