What do you dislike about your Ferrari?

Have an 83 308 QV...my gosh the windows are SLOW!

 

I dislike the fact that mine has NOT been delivered yet. grrr...

 

Not enough time to drive it

 

Mines too fncken expensive for me to buy as yet!@!

retractable seatbelts on my 512TR.....it's so primitive.

 

ditto. The fact that it's not mine.

 

not enough power.

too

much

is

never

enough​

doody.

 

Thats funny, but hey..isn't it a blast to drive anyway.

 

355 Spider, my top sucks. It takes half an hour and a sweaty workout to get it down, or up. I'm 5'11, 180 so the seat squishes me into the dashboard. Sometimes I stand outside the car and push the switch with a broomhandle.LOL

 

The constant hassle of making sure I'm not going too fast, and scanning for anyone whose job it is to make sure I'm not.

 

The fact that I'm afraid to park it anywhere because it gets so much attention.

 

#1 How about constantly watching your rear-end while stopped at the traffic light and thinking to yourself "Is this person insured?" "is this woman using her cell-phone" will they stop in time?

#2 Speeding up alongside the SUV's so they can actually see your car in the mirror before they change lanes !

#3 Ever notice that the car with the damaged front grill and primered hood always seems to be behind you at traffic lights, else tailgating your butt at 70MPH.

Kinda stressful sometimes.. huh..

The fact that I have to stare at it everyday in the garage and not drive it. Dont want to put too many miles on it. It just taunts me from the garage like a nymphomanic, bisexual, money, grubbin, spendaholic supermodel. Gotta love it.

 

Don't wanna put too many miles on it? Why? It anit going up in value anytime soon..why the hell do you want to save it for the next guy to enjoy to the fullest? You paid the money..drive it and fix it when it breaks then drive it again!! Geez it anit the Mona Lisa sitting in the garge dude!! It;s a FERRARI drive it thats why it was built!!

 

That sounds like the best one.

I'm in the position where mine is too expensive to buy too.

 

Yes Alan please explain ... ?, I'm confused, you bought a Ferrari NOT to drive? You could have bought a 1:18 scale model a lot cheaper ...

We have discussed on many threads that driving them actually makes them more reliable and hence cheaper to maintain. This is because you should (have to) replace the timing belts (and other things) based on time or miles ... thus you might as well put the miles on. Also as we have discussed before oil seals and many other rubber parts get a memory (or go hard) if they do not move enough, thus you really are doing you car a dis-service.

The price of parts, and having to use a SD2 computer to talk to the car.

 

Too slowwwww!

 

355 and 360 F1....the F1 transmission really sucks around town...We had hoped the 360F1 would be better, but it wasn't.

328 GTB....a bit too slow and parts are very hard to find in Thailand.

However, the look the sound and the experience of driving the F-car usually compensate for the above flaws. I own a few rice mobiles like GTR and NSX, but I must confess that the F-car still gets my blood going even if its performance can't match that of my ricers....

 

CAN I GET AN AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

VINCENT.

 

Pong as in Pat Pong? Sa wa dee, tomai u tenoon?

 

Maybe, But it saved your arse, at least once not to long ago?

 

I had a 328 and I didn't the steering wheel position and the shift pattern. I have a 550 now and the only thing I don't like about it is that I'm sitting at my computer instead of in the car.(It's snowing).
