Cant see the point of an F car...

Hopefully you'll now bugger off to www.boringbmwchat.com and leave us and our ego's to our Ferrari's.

I've driven an M3 and it was ......... soooo boring. Then again it is basically a 3 series.

 

Good luck with the German bomber!!! mine fura!!!!

 

Its not a Ego but a passion to own one or in my case passion to want to own one.

 

Andrew

Its best if you just leave it, Youve obviously missed the point of why most own a Ferrari its not like a M3 ...admitted a great car but unfortunately just another M3.

Good luck

 

SMG is pants and the only 3 series worthy of the magic M badge is the E30. For £30k i'd have a 993 all day long.

 

Andrew, perhaps you should read this http://members.roadfly.com/jason/m3engines.htm

each to their own I say, but your post on here is worthless trolling

 

So you wanted a 360 for say £70-80 k and got a bmw 50 £30k mmm

I would have gon for a Evo FQ if you wanted all rounder wipe the floor with a M3 and the gear box would work

 

Andrew,

Yes the M3 may be more practical than a Ferrari........but how many Ferrari's do you see day in day out.........there were 4-5 M3's (and 4 boxsters) within sight of what's cooking in Heswall last sunday, and only ONE Ferrari (only rember it as I'm trying to talk my younger brother out of swapping his 330ci for one) sometimes its not about showing off, but about doing something slighlty different (one of the reasons I wont swap my old purple Ruf 911 for a 996 or 997 even though they'd be far easier to live with)

When you feel like a change back to a Ferrari pop in to CSO in Neston for a chat

Regards

 

We understand that you don't have Ferrari passion but insulting those that do isn't the best way to get your point across.

I'm pleased for you that you've bought a car you really enjoy.

By all means share how much you like your car with us but maybe ease off with the criticisms of people you haven't met?

Anybody that knows me will confirm that my social status is somewhere between dung beetle and head lice, despite owning a Ferrari.

 

It's great you found a car you like better. If you were really happy, you'd be off enjoying your new car rather than wasting time to come back and diss'ing other people's rides on this forum. Seems like you're the one trying to prove something.

 

As has been said you have totally missed the point of owning a Ferrari. I now own a car that dynamically is better than my 355 was, it will outperform it at all levels. Problem is it isn't a Ferrari. My 355 is the one car that has truly given me immense joy, and despite it trying to kill me it is the car I am still fondest of. I think either you get Ferrari or you don't. If I felt comfortable with another I would have had a 355 again over the 993 T4 - the only thing that stopped me is I don't trust them now which is a shame as the 993 will never have the soul of a Ferrari.

Also you seem to have been looking for the wrong car with the 360 - the point about it is that it isn't an everyday car for commuting, shopping, 20k miles a year. Also it is about £40k more than the car you bought.

Also I agree that a latest spec Impreza or Evo is an equal all rounder to the M3 plus its cheaper. Its not as if the M3 is 'special' as they are as common as seeing a Ford Focus these days. My mate has an E46 M3 cab SMG, and to be honest I find it very dull indeed.

 

OK. Own up. Who is it? This has to be a wind up!

No one can type sh1te like that and be serious!!!



PS. As you're from the Wirral....are you sure you did'nt steal the M3?

 

Ahem we don't steal them............we employ people from over the water to do it for us

Maybe "Andrew" will give us a clue as to whether he does exist or is a figment of a dwarf trolls imagination

 

biggest load of **** i have read on here for ages why buy a juice gobling m3 why not buy a diesel as the speed limit 70mph they still have a boot and sat nav and fold down rear seats glad you got out of your testarossa as you are one of those look at me people to bull up your ego as we might all get mistaken as a ego person like you was but now you are a skint member in a posh reps car

 

That'll do, the person I thought you may have been is far to cheap to eat at any of them, I could put you off Terrace C for life......it used to be an office I worked in and lets just say you don't want to know what I did in whats now the kitchen

 

i went from a 355 to a merc sl55. Sure the merc is the better car overall but completely missing in the "x" factor that comes in spades with f-cars and for me also Masers and Lambos. German cars are just cars, tho M3 is a great car (dont agree with it being bulletproof, have heard the opposite from a couple of ex owners). Sure some people buy ferraris just for the attention they bring but enthusiasts like on this site would still be grinning from ear to ear driving their ferraris even if no one else could see them. My girlfriend who doesnt drive and knows nothing about cars (she thought my maser was a "marshall"!?! for about a month), used to love going out in the ferrari for the noise and the experience whereas she has no time for the merc at all.
Ferraris have soul and every car enthusiast should aim to own one at least once in their lives.

 

woah woah wait! it isn't called a marshall? boy do i feel stupid

 

So you like the 360 just fine, except that the only reason to own one is ego, according to you. You are very confused, seek professional counseling.

 

Just got back from the pub and read this.What a completely pointless thread.This guy needs therapy

 

Your thoughts are noted but at the end of the day why post here?we have certainly had our comments of Ferraris shortcomings but in the end We still love the cars it would be better if You directed Your comments in a relevent BMW forum as You were always going to be flamed here,do not get Me wrong as I have always had issues with Ferrari but I wonder if You had gone onto a BMW forum and complained about them what kind of reaction You would have received there.
Dave
P.S.just remember how many BMWs You see on the road compared to Ferraris.
