It is 2005 and only 1800km (1120 miles) I drive it only auto gallery to home only 10 miles loll but i feel so excited wohohohohohohohoh the sound is incredible!!!! The photos are from the auto gallery It has F1 gear , Carbon Ceramic Brakes and some normal options... First of all i need to change the license plate to my name's three letters and waiting for the approvals.(Here in Turkey the paper work for plates takes at least 3 days and weekend is coming but i think it will end till next weekend) I will take the best photos and post here in a short time. I will send the car to Ziebart Car Care which is the shop owner is my friend. its inside need a detailed clean and care and outside needs a huge wax .Also it has Bridgestones on it i will replace them to Pzero Rosso's( if it is the best? any oppinion?)

Caghan, gorgous. I was suprised by your location as, having never been to Turkey, I still think about "Midnight Express" and in that vision there are no Ferraris'!! Seriously, I look forward to visiting your country one day. Any special areas not to be missed?
No ferrari's lol. Dont you watch F1 Grand Prix. One Grand Prix is in Istanbul havent you heard that?? Not so much but in istanbul there are some also Ferrari has a original dealer. Most of Ferrari's are F355 and 360 modena's also 6 F430 here in Turkey. I think there are 20-25 Modenas, 20 F355's and at most 10 550 or 575. 4-5 456 and i saw a F50 and 308. I mean whole Ferrari's not much than 60-70 i think. Not much ferraris and Porsches because the taxes are so high i paid mine 275.000 Euro's. A new 2006 one is about 305-320 Euros. Think about it. There are Porsche's also. My ex was 996 C4S. and i also has Cayenne S BTW i bet in here turkey much much much more Mercedes and BMW where you live (except germany) Ah come to Istanbul you ll have fun very much , also on summer the eagean coasts such as bodrum marmaris fethiye are very beatifull places i recommend both places on summer, you ll have fun trust me! BTW if you still thinking midnight express that is very bad. The guy who is the director of the movie had come to turkey a few years ago and give apologizes to our people from tv and press. Just think about it bro ;-) I hope one day you can visit and see the good places of ours.. and have fun You will be welcomed when you visit our country bro Regards Caghan
Beautiful car- enjoy!. The thought of that car riding on the streets of Istanbul sends shivers down my back. I have been to Istanbul (Cirugen Palace Hotel) and I know what kind of traffic and narrow crowded streets you have to deal with. BTW- the greatest concentration of Mercedes, BMW, etc may very well be here in So. Florida in the Boca area (with Beverly Hills-Newport right up there as well). Again best of luck with the new ride.
thanks a lot friend. Yup the traffic makes me crazy in my other cars but in F it will be very enjoyable i think i can ignore it hehehehe BTW Cirugen can be Cıragan Palace Hotel? ok if you stay at there you must have know the the road near Bosphours it will be enjoyable driving it there good fun Regards Caghan
Congradulations on your car (Kazasiz belasiz)... S&S Motors I see They had 6 F430's up for sale, along with 2 Gallardos at the same time... Seems to be the place of the moment. Good choice on getting it 2nd hand, no point paying 30-40k more n just waiting for the car to come. Carbon brakes on it to.. Car has alot of kit I'll hope to see you out and about next time i'm in Istanbul which is probably this summer. Do you cruise along the Bebek sahil cause I saw a black C4S there all the time, I'm assuming thats you even though there are dozens of them btw, there are quite alot more Ferraris then 60-70!. There are 2 F50's, 3 F40s and 1 (and maybe two) Enzo's. Alot of F430's now and I mean alot...Every car gallery on the corner has brought one or two to sell nevermind the dealer WHen i was over near the end of 2005 last, I saw a F430 in that new grey color, with red sports seats in front of Beymen Brassierie.. I'm sure you know the owner, M.G
Yeah that was me black C4S at the bebek sahil. I made 47000km with it in 2 and a half years. most km 4S was mine lol. I know that the gray color F430 owner. I) know that guy he his ex was a 02 360 Spider and his car was so clean and perfect condition. Sure i agree there are a lot Ferrari's on the gallery's especially 355's and 360's aslo 2-3 Gallardo's are for sale. I think G-car's are not suitable for our roads. Ferrari's too. I am looking a daily use sports car nowadays, I made a mistake on summer gave my C4S and pay some and get a new Cayenne S bu with all options with exhaues etc etc.But i am selling that to replace it to a daily used car. And my loss is about 30k euro's and drove only 9k km's with Cayenne. BTW you said Enzo's i dont know if there is at turkey but i saw Mehmet Zeytinoğlu's F50 at maslak 3 years ago i guess. And a friend from Carpoint said that there is a guy who owned a Carrera GT and he has no license plate he is just fitting one of his cars plate and goin to make speed at midnights's. Good idea for only speeding no need to pay ÖTV tax and make the car price around 400k euro's hehehehe if it is true very smart idea but also risky but bribing is the solution for this lol
Its nice to see we are involved in the same "cevre" I remember MG would never let the valets in Reina touch his car, he'd park it himself all the time I think the condition of the roads are getting better, I'm in Montreal now, and the roads in downtown where I live are terrible! And people here have all sorts of cars. So I really think we are ok from that point as longs as you dont take your car into the back roads of Fatih or something... I don't think you made a mistake by giving in the C4S because the shape is old now and it'll be harder to sell. The cayenne will be changing shape though so you might have a problem there Cayenne's are easier to sell tho especially full+full. Yes, I know that Azeri man. Palmali shipping, he lives in Maya Residences. I saw the Maybach in the parking. He has a RR phantom bentley GT, this Vanquish S, S 600, Schumachers Falcon 2000 private jet too What is his connection to Carpoint though? Did he buy them from Carpoint? That Carrera GT with no plate lol! Very Turkish mindset there hehe . Do you know any more about the car, was it bought from a gallery? Color? There is one Enzo with no plates, a member on Fchat spotted it a year ago. There is another one with plates (sira plaka) that was flown in. My friend was involved with the transfer of the car to Turkey I'll PM you about it.
There are the major highways which are pretty good (you can see what there like at night with the DA motorsport and the M5 vs maranellos 996 tt etc videos) Its an old city so for most parts its narrow roads and what not but there are some good places to really gun it. The laws are strict depending on if you get caught. As long as your not trying to do top speed runs in broad day light you can get away with quite alot...
Sure. He bought Vanquish, Bentley GT and Maybach from them. Also Cem Yılmaz is their customers. They are nice guys. Also the Kolatlar is the one of the nicest gallery in the city. They sell nice cars and they sold a black F430 last summer about a price of 285k Euro which is a slightly less price than Fermas.. Same as Merc's and Porsche's slighlty less price than the others For example a Carrera S at Dogus or any Etiler gallery is around 180k 185k Euro's he sells around 170k-175k euros same car
I didn't know that kolatlar was that much cheaper... But i'm waiting to see some new pictures of your new stallion from your garage or maybe some scenic pictures of the car along the Sahil road... Maybe even some videos
Do they allow track days at the new Grand Prix circuit in Turkey? It would be fun to see how the e-diff handels that awesome Turn 8!!
Sure i will post a video soon when i have a free time and a good weather to have speeding. Nowadays it is rainy and stormy and last month past like Alaska in Istanbul.... I had some videos of my C4S at sahil and Sabiha Gökçen highway at www.fastdrive.org member's street race link. BTW i am looking forward to upcoming SUMMER )
a few month ago Ferrari owners get a test at Istanbul park. But havent heard a ticket ride (like the Hockenheim or Ring) for Istanbul park. Best place for me to speed is TEM highway Istanbul-Silivri-Edirne or Istanbul-Düzce highway
