    That's really good to hear. If you ever see a guy sitting in a lawn chair out front, don't mind him, he's just looking at the art.:D

    Now that you have driven an Enzo Jas, are you tempted to have one in the garage one day? :D:D

    A 288 and Enzo would complete the Ferrari Supercar collection and you sir would be in a VERY small and exclusive club. :p:p

    I want to thankyou again for sharing the pics you do Jas!! I, among many other people envy you and your wonderful collection of cars mate. Life is short and you are making the most of it by enjoying some of the best cars the world has to offer! Gotta love that! :D:D

    Stay healty and safe mate!! With love from down-under!! :):)

    All the best to you and your family Pap, appreciate your kind thoughts. With regards to the future, who knows eh ? I think the Enzo would tempt the devil himself !

    You're right about one thing Pap, life is short...can change at any time too...I see it all the time and it changes your perspective. In the end, its just stuff. My biggest source of enjoyment ? Thats easy....

    Your collection has definitely become my favourite on Fchat, a modern collection that is complete and non-excessive IMO.

    CS - natural aspired V8 with modern technology yet still a very raw machine.

    F40 - V8 with forced induction, very different driving experience from most Ferraris and a good representation of that F1 era.

    F50 - F1 detuned engine, enough said.

    BB - Flat 12, classic Ferrari flagship.


    You have great taste Jas.

    I remember when you first posted pictures of your stable and I could not imagine having to pick which one to drive. Although here in Iraq and not being able to drive most of the time more than 25km (15mph) I have to admire the choices in cars and look forward to your next choice. Drive one for me as many of us gawk over your pictures here in the office, we just shake our heads and just dream of what you have currently. Enjoy them in good health.

    Thanks Gil, I am glad you and your buddies enjoy the pics....here's wishing you and everyone over there the best of health and safe return home. We appreciate all of the effort and sacrifice you and all the personnel in Iraq and Afghanistan are making...it is tremendous and incredibly honorable. Hats off to you guys, and if you are ever in my neck of the woods, let me know and I would be honored to give you an up close look and drive of you choice :)

    Narinder, Sukhi....much appreciated yaars, thanks a lot ! You guys will appreciate this...my mum and dad always keep a container of charanamrit from Amritsar (Holy water for anyone that is wondering what this is....) and insisted that any new vehicle be blessed on arrival with a drop or two for safety and well being. Well, my wife and I duly did this to the F50 and it is now blessed and secure ! Thanks again, really appreciate it.
