    Also, just to stay on topic (in the Aussie section ??!!) I hate that I don't have enough time to drive my car everyday and that it runs out of fuel at the track TWICE on a good day :p

    Is that because you keep putting in 11psi and 11 litres?

    I get mixed up with litres and tyre pressure ..... I thought it was 11psi and 30 litres but it should be the other way round for faster laps times :p

    Anyway , fast is a relative term for me :(

    What do I hate about Ferrari’s?
    The fact that if I owned a Porsche 911, and it had 150k klms on it, people would say, F$@KALL about it’s klms. But if you own, drive and maintain a Ferrari, WHATEVER model, and it’s done more than sit in a FARKIN garage it’s whole life, and been maintained regardless of cost, and it’s got more than 20k klms on it, you might as well send it to the wreckers, because every farkwit says ‘100k klms, is the engine ok??’
    ‘Isn’t it due for a rebuild?’
    ‘Is it reliable?’
    DUMKANTS....

    Mine's only done 2000 kms from new but I do polish every day :p

    The resale should be good as it's never been raced or seen a track and I refuse to over-inflate the tyres :p

    So far, I've been offered a block of land in Port Lincoln (even Steve wouldn't live there) and a Maserati Gransport as a trade-in.

    I said no to both, but told them to ring Greg :)

    Don't think Greg would even trade his donkey on a Maserati or land in SA if you paid him cash on top....:)

    It's nuts isn't it. My sense is that the obsession with mileage is getting worse. The black 599 in QLD is similarly not going anywhere, despite a very motivated seller.

    Can't believe your car hasn't sold....It's advertised below U.K. Market value and for our Aussie prices it's super cheap for a V12 considering less than 3000 were ever made...

    I thought it would have been gone in a heartbeat. I’ve told many people about it, and telling them it would be the best maintained 575 in Aus. The market is depressed, which is to be expected.

    Yep I agree Gizzi...As I said in the market watch thread I've never seen so many stradales for sale at once....There is a lot of F cars on car sales that have been for sale for well over a year now...nothing seems to be moving, yet some people are still putting insane prices on 328s, 355s etc...

    Almost as idiotic as some looser calling and saying

    "Is it an import"?

    And then dismissing the car despite it being in better condition than 99% of equivalent Aussie delivered cars, and they happily go off and pay more for a complete HOS.

    Utterly moronic.
