Have ya noticed-cross country in Ferraris?

No cross country but I have driven about 5k miles in the last 6 months and nothing has exploded. (knock on wood) And I'm not a pansy ass driver either, I push mine to the edge.

Stop looking at them and get out and drive.

 

Purchased mine in melbourne Australia and drove home to beyond Sydney total 1500 kms (900 miles). Have driven 10,000 kms (6,000miles) in 7 months.Has been fun 86,000 kms on speedo now.

 

I did 250 miles in one day to visit my parents in 90+ degree Texas heat. No problems, the A/C was even able to keep us cool. The car performs much better in that situation than a 10 mile trip in Houston traffic.

 

I wouldn't say "no problems" - mine blew the cigarette lighter fuse! Devastating!

 

I did it in my 993 turbo, but then in porsche land, thats not really a big deal

 

No cross country in mine yet....

But after two years of sorting out all kinds of Gremlin's, I have managed 600 miles across the past two glorious Sunday afternoons....and 4,000 miles this summer alone.

 

OMFG!!!!!!!!

Did you replace it with a NOS Ferrari fuse??? If not your car is worthless now and should probably be towed to the nearest F Dealer for proper repair.

<sarcastic grin here>

 

I'm going to go try and blow my clutch...

 

All these cars need to be driven - long and hard. My best trip yet in my 348 - Maranello, Italy back to home in the UK - 1075 miles non stop in one day. Sort of planning another long trip. Ro-ro ferry to NY and then coast to coast. Just a thought. Perhaps we could get a convoy!

 

I drove the same amount of miles non-stop in my F355. Florida to Missouri. It was the very first day I owned and drove a Ferrari. My father came along for the trip. 11 hours straight. I'll never forget it.

I have driven from Austin Tx to 4-corners (in 100 dF temps)
I have driven from Austin to WV in 2 inches per hour rainfall for 2 days.
No problems either trip.
I have put 45K miles and 5K race track miles on my F355 in 12 years under my ownership.

 

I drove across America with the top down in a 348 Spider. No problems, except ever since then my life seems a little less spectacular. Nothing compares to that feeling... and like a junkie I eagerly await my next hit!!!

 

I think I have put close to 2000 miles on mine since July. The triple seals started leaking.... Fixed that but now there is a slight oil leak but not worrying till I pull the motor. I just keep on driving it.

 

...I added another 750 miles to my 348 last weekend.

 

My wife and I flew to Vegas, picked up the car and drove it back to Tucson. Then proceeded to put 3.5k miles on it that same year. They are made to be driven.

 

Salt Lake City, Utah to Ottawa, Ont. -- 2200 miles
3 days of driving and a ton of fun
