    Try a 400i 5-speed. Huge bang for the buck. Mid $30k, front engine V-12, refined, fun, and its doubtful that you'll ever see another one while you're driving yours.
    I really like mine and it is very fast when you think about how much it weighs. If you're ever in Houston, look me up and we'll go for a ride.

    not much of a GT guy. i have been thinking about getting a TR, but the diff failures and other issues scared me off. 400 5 speed would be fun, but they are a bit heavy and the parts prices are scary.

    do you know who has gt4 *10296*? the ex Javetz car? i worked on that car in highschool and have pictures of it at J.J.I Restorations, Tybee Island Georgia, along with the other cars Jim and Linda Invintinato did. i would love to see what that car looks s like now, as i have lots of memories of it. please pm if you have contact info for the current owner.

    i have a big file of pics of my old dino i can send, but the car was modified in a few ways, so it may not be helpful to those looking for "correct" pictures. was a nice early series one though.

    People who don't care how obnoxious and pointless they are, and arrogantly say so plainly, belong on ignore. And in the interest of providing an appropriate defence for the future, I am going to be Pro-pholytic and dress my particular annoyance (i.e., ****) appropriately.

    So, "Welcome to FChat". :D Welcome (also) :rolleyes: to my "ignore" list. Wear it in good health.

    And thank you, to the more senior members of this board, (observing this pointless tirade) for the suggestion. It's a good one! Anyone wanna join? And guess what! :D You don't even need to subscribe :p to do it either.

    Phylotic,

    Might I suggest you save your valuable fifty cents and spend YOUR OWN time compiling YOUR OWN data next time. It might just spare some people the agony or reading your Jr Law School drivel since you'll be spending your time elsewhere...?

    I bought my Ferraris because of what they represent to me. To me they are the pinnacle of automotive design, craftsmanship, and pride. Pride in one's name, organization, country. When I found this site, I thought I found a place where people felt the same as I do, and would hold themselves to a higher standard. You guys are just mean.

    The illegal use of text content is a form of copyright infringement. If you make a profit from the sale of such content, you should probably check to make sure you are above board. Is dstacy doing anything illegal? How would I know, I'm not a lawyer. I can see that he is selling, not just sharing, the information. Would it behoove him to see if he needs to acknowledge people for the information provided to him? I think so. Is it wrong for someone to suggest he may need to confirm his sources? No. Do I care if dstacy tries to make a buck? No, but who am I to argue if someone else does?

    My involvement with this site ends today. Seeing this thread just sucked.

    Joe is right. Wow!

    I can't believe people are getting their panties in a wad over this. Is it because Dave is trying to make a few bucks from his work? It must be, there's always someone *****ing about other peoples efforts to make money. How many attacks have we seen on Rob for actually CHARGING people to do things on this site?

    For the naysayers, I have a question. If I were to compile a list of every song that had been composed over the last 20 years with the name "Maria" in the title, then try to sell that list to people interested in my effort, is that a problem? I didn't write the songs. If I included pictures of the album covers is that a problem? I put it all together, never said it was 'mine', as you seem to define it. It's data, nothing more. No promises are made to its accuracy or validity.

    Get over yourselves. Dave put a ton of work into his list, if you're not interested, vote with your wallet. For what it's worth, I'd rather be surrounded by people like Dave that work to give us information on Ferraris than by newbie whiners that poke holes in his methods. Relax gentlemen, and pour yourselves a cocktail.

    By the way Dave, I'm not interested in your list. :)

    if you post stuff on a forum. or post your car for sale with pics, or if "your" car is at an event, or for sale by a dealer or broker, then the photos, vin and color / ad detail are a matter of public access and public record.

    so if one of you guys that has a ferrari thinks its never been listed for sale with a vin and or pictures in print, and on the intenet, please let the rest of us know. because i bet with some time, ads can be found that are public access with lots of info on the car.

    dealer and broker ads are public domain.

    People sure take themselves pretty seriously around here.
    What this thread needs is more wet T-shirt shots on 308s.

    What a minefield! You try to do something good for the club, charge a small fee to cover your costs and you get slammed. Hmm, on behalf of all alchoholics, I'd like to serve Dave with a class action lawsuit order to cease and desist his winemaking activities. He's a menace to the world.

    Ahem, now for say a case of your finest Dego Red I can make this go away...

    :)

    Live long and prosper Dave!
