    Interesting screen name - now you must be a doctor or scientist. ;)

    Although, I am curious as to where the second "i" comes from. :)

    All the best,
    Andrew.

    Some of these responses frighten me.

    Bulletin: F is a very special car but at the end of the day, still just a car.

    I believe Jeremy Clarkson said this:

    "It is possible to have a relationship with your vehicle - and that is something that non-car guys will never understand"

    A Ferrari is one of the only man made objects in the world that has a soul....

    Ah-hah. I anticipated that one after I posted. Let myself open for that one.

    I love the car and am indeed a car guy but I don't bow down before it and say a prayer before I go to bed each nite.

    I find myself telling people it's the intangible rather than the tangible that make up the mythos that is Ferrari. Other cars may come along that are faster, more expensive, and more "exotic". But no other marque was, is, or ever will be... Ferrari!

    At the end of the day, you may be right. Also at the end of the day, Roseanne Bar and Heather Locklear are just mammals. But, which one would you rather be seen in? Answer, then explain why.

    The blond cute skinny one.
    Cause I don't like obnoxious brunettes. ;)

    Nobody sees me in the 360. They can just see the Fcar. And if I were with Heather nobody would see me either. No problem with either case.

    My wife is working on a prayer for me to recite each evening.

    I recently got a 2004 360.

    EVERY person who has seen it in the garage says the same thing.

    OH WOW!!!!!!

    People have driven it and I ask them "How will you explain this to your friends?"

    They all say you cannot...you must experience it.

    That's what it's all about...Plain and simple
