    I'm a subscriber to Octane Magazine - great read if you have never read it, its mostly about older cars - its a Brit mag, so they have a unique british outlook ... that i like.

    anyway the game is - I take Octane magazine and go thru the ads in the back. I select the cars that i want to buy - as if money were no object... so I just kinda like to see where my tastes have changed etc... and then I guess on how much it would cost me... so here is my list: just in order of appearance in the june issue of Octane:

    Any guess on the cost?

    I'm a charter subscriber. Great magazine, although not hard core enough for some.

    Anyway, I play a similar game....pick the car on each page you'd most like to own...cost no object, but a car you would have to keep, not resell. (Yes, I have a good bit of spare time!)

    I had a subscripton to dupont registry back in the early 90's when I was in elementary school/middle school. `Probably why I love the 80's ferraris and 80's eurocars more than anything else. Also probably why I got a Testarossa for my first ferrari too!

    Nice! My mum had a testarossa when I was a very young kid. I was born in 91 and had my baby seat on the passenger. Great car and what started my passion and lasted until today. Now its a serious part of my life :)

    Speaking of Octane, anyone see the piece on taking a Testarossa from England to Morroco?

    Fragile my azz!
