    Too bad honest mike didn't buy xom and sell cc's against it with the 355 money, he could be in a 430 with the same pile of cash and actually have the 430 and the cash at the end of the day. :( Knowledge is everything. oh well welcome aboard mike and congratulations. I know whats it's like to climb from the bottom up as do many members of this forum, which to this day still surprises me as I always thought a Ferrari was a rich persons car as it turns out it's a smart persons car.

    Look at those kids against the fence, their faces!

    These cars are for sharing....

    I had a loud azz Harley Team HPD Police Escort too, that's FUN doing that kind of driving here in Houston, by the end of the morning the noise had my head pounding......

    You get to run all the red lights you want!

    That makes it worth wiping off the fingerprints at the end of the day......it really makes you re evaluate the whole meaning of the term "rich" really.

    Sadly the light blue has "cracked" but I will rework it in the same color, that's Factory Original, a very old color 'Azzuro Dino Metallica'........it does look nice, very complimentary to the lines, years ahead of Bangle's 'flame edge' styling.......

    I am crazy,.......;)
