FERRARI 1st & 2nd on poll.

Ditto.

 

1st Welcome to Sunday.

2nd Why do you have to bring this up everytime? Its like u have to prove yourself or your cars.

If I go buy a Reno tomorrow will I fell just an exclusive? How about a Ford with a Cosworth motor? or even a Honda?

Lambo and Pagani dont have much motor racing history(well lambo does in offshore boats haha) but that doesnt not make them any less special.

 

There is a Racing section where this sort of chatting carries on.
It's probably why. That doesn't mean we can't talk about it here as well

 

Spot on. No other car I've owned felt as much like a living bit of history. It's a marque you're proud to be associated with, even when newer and faster cars come along. After all the Vectors, Zondas and Masers are gone and forgotten, Ferrari will still be Ferrari.

 

With 2 F40's,a 355 and a new 430,Gil.............i think you do have a Ferrari passion that no one else understands And i think thats great that you do!

 

Gil, i applaud your passion and i can understand it, just working on affording it.

 

I wish it really was a poll... then Ferrari would be first and second every time

 

Double ditto.

 

I wonder when he will put in his order for a 599 !

 

Well see, you seem to be mentioning Zonda or Lambo every 2nd post these days soo it seems you do care.

Do you actually cheer Schumie/Ferrari on every lap at a racetrack or u happy to sit in a corp box waiting for the final lap/overtake b4 celebrating? Cause I celebrate every lap, even when Schumie is coming last, every lap he drives past I go mental on the stands, soo that should mean Im more passionate then you about Ferrari even tho I dont currently own a Ferrari....

I have Italian blood and been to Italy almost a dozen times and Im sorry but the majority of Italians love all Italian Car Manufacturers. Be it Ferrari come race day or Lambo in the streets. And it seems only Ferrari owners are the ones that claim they are the "only passionate" yet always need to prove they are passionate and belittle other Italian marques.

I dont understand why you think u need to prove to us you have a passion for Ferrari's, it seems evident you have a passion.

The best F1 race I have ever been to is still Monza98, Ferrari 1-2 200,000 fans cheering Schumie to victory and Im guessing less than 1% actually owned a Ferrari but it doesnt make them any less passionate about Ferrari.

 

No Gil, you are not.

Many share the passion, and understand your loyalty.

Forza Ferrari!

 

don't forget lamborghini sold their soul to become german...Ferrari!;they'll always be the most prestigious, traditional, soulful, uncompromising passion evoking marque of all time
Forza Ferrari! guten tag lamborghini

 

i love ferraris, but i'm a car slut and don't really care overall about a badge, i'm more into the individual cars. ferrari have half a dozen cars that i'd really love to have, many of the others are just nice sportscars as far as i'm concerned. so for me it's not about blindly following one company's vision of what a car should be, it's about appreciating the best no matter who made it.

you ask us why we hang around on a ferrari website if we want to talk about other stuff... why do you hang around the aussie section if you don't want to talk about stuff that aussie ferrari owners and enthusiasts like to talk about?

anyhoo Gil, i understand, i'm just not you!

 

ferraris are all OHOS.

i'm going to nibble Gil's nuts every month anyway...so i can say what i like.

 

Probably next year,the 2007 599GTC. He may have to take his missus in the F40 again to butter her up so she lets him bring the 599 home,IF he decides to get one? Unreal! What a champ!

 

that would make you a "poll"cat

I don't consider anything other than a Ferrari as a car, one red eye one white eye one green eye and one brown eye ...... biased ??!! you bet!

it's either in the blood or not, if not no-one else will understand, if it is no need to say anymore, we know, and we're buggered because it's all you can think about

I do love my fiat 2300s but if one has to go it will be the fiat , the fazz makes you feel good everytime you get in it, and if any car should be special to me it's the 2300 as I personally rebuilt that car from the ground up and it will hurt when it goes to someone else

 

Ferrari almost sold to Ford and did sell to FIAT which almost sold to GM. If they werent owned by FIAT which in turn gets concessions from the Italian Government, Ferrari would of died a long long time ago. Also Sultan of Brunei used to put alot of money into the Ferrari F1 Team soo its not as clean cut as you make it out.

Lambo was 1st sold to the Americans then Indo's then finally Audi, not really much to do with Lambo selling soul directly to Germans more to do that Megatech went under due to well, we all know what happened to his dad...

 

Gil
1:just checked my Blood and i've got Ferrari blood
2:i'm working hard on getting a Ferrari,possibly a 512tr
3:watched the start of the F1,and besides the first car spinning in the backround it was pretty good to see the cars out again after 6 months off.
anyway thats what i think,and will be watching every race this year hoping for a 1,2 finish for Ferrari

 

What would you do if the following happened?

You are sitting in front of the TV at 12.30 am watching a Grand Prix.

It's the first corner and both Ferrari's are knocked out.

Do You:

1. Watch the rest of the race.

Or

2. Tape the race and watch it some other time bacause while you like F1 it's not worth staying up all night if the Ferrari's are out. (Me)

 

not worth watching the rest of the race if Ferrari is knocked out,you'll hear about the results the next day

 

hey Gil...am i better than you? I bought my first Ferrari 29 years ago

I must be two years better..hehe

 

i watch from start to finish, no matter what.

last year was fascinating, even with ferrari being crapola.
