Damn I am bored, so tell me your childhood dream that you can remember on a Ferrari? Growing up in the 80's, the 308 did it for me! I had 2 big posters in my bedroom and dreamt of owning one when I grew up......such sweet memories. Magnum drove one...which incidently I just saw some old re-runs..were tight shorts the rage in the 80's? And who can ever forget the Daytona and the 86 Testerossa with Don Johnson and whats-his-name....
my definitive F-moment is Tom Selleck in Magnum PI. don johnson , no. till today , I still regret why the opening scene from the Italian Job wasn't done with a F-car ....
Pistole....you must be a child of the 80's too! But...how can you not have remembered the White Testerossa or the Black Daytona Sypder?
" Questi Giorni..Italian yadda..yadda.." I was a kid when I first saw the Italian Job. Almost cried when the signal orange Miura blew up in the tunnel, apparently crashing into a bulldozer. Asked my dad why the car blew up, to which my old man replied...'all sports car do that..' Coming from a Volvo man, I dinna believe him..hehe! Always loved Lambos and had Countaches on the wall xcept for the lone Boxer 512. Then I went to the UK and it was there basically that I switched allegiance to Ferrari. Lambos were loud and showy and very Star-War-resque, whereas Fcars have the certain beauty without being crass. Something like Jane Seymour for Fcar and Madonna for Lambo...! Magnum PI does it for me too and I agree that the Johnson guy doesn't. Pimpish looking cops... I still have Matt Munro on the CD stacker, and on the Dengkil-Sepang ( Col de Turini, Malaysian version ) route at 0700 with 'On Days Like These' thru the speakers..without any tunnel to go into...yeah, I'm da man....
Mine.. after seeing the F40s on motor magazine in New Zealand when I lived there.. my dream F40 in black! Full Boost, screaming down the straights on a track.... with a .... on the side...
Alooooha! I was a student in Hawaii when they where still showing Magnum on TV. They used my school's computer lab as the "Naval Intellegence Center". Really loved that 308GTS. The white colored Testa in Miami Vice was a bit too Gay for me... but also love that car. Spaing77... u live in NZ? Where? Auckland? I was there for 2 yrs.
You dont know where Howick is? south of Auckland. about 20 mins by car from the city, where were you in NZ?
