    Actually, Mrs. Judge has been quite helpful!

    See?? That's the kind of 'cool folks' you meet in the Ferrari world........
    It's KIND OF about the cool cars but it's more importantly about being a COOL PERSON.....

    Now, my Ferrari kart won't start....I pulled the plug and put in a new one, dumped the stale gasoiliine into Valeria's petunias.......STILL won't fire.....I think I snapped the lil' camshaft, and MAN does my elbow hurt!

    Pass the BenGay.......

    I have to build a cage for the gliders now.......

    While this question may seem obvious, I don't think it is:

    How can one become a lambo fanboy/fanatic w/o ever giving Ferrari a chance? I mean really, how would someone have come across a lambo and converted w/o being exposed to Ferrari unless this person was brought up on only lambos? I would think that 99% of lambo fans/owners were probably shown a Fcar first and probably liked Fcars before going to Lambos. This was in response to your brand fanatic section.

    Any lambo people here who was exposed to a Lambo before Ferrari who can disprove my idea?

    So, I want to pull the cat out of my pomelo and drop a spice glider in there...

    Will it fit?

    Do I need to make any other changes to the weight distribution or steering alignment?

    What color do you think I should get?

    When will spice gliders quit depreciating?

    What year pomelo is best?????

    Well this statement was directed at me, So let me try to answer.
    I love the looks of Ferrari, and someday I will buy one used thats a great deal,
    drive it for a while and sell it, so that I can experience the Ferrari thing, Great conversation. Im here to learn about them and maybe share some reality with people. So yes I don't think they"re worth the money "TO ME" remember I said "TO ME".
    Now if I made $200k or $300k a year I might feel different. :)

    I like Porsche more. So therefor, I lurk at Rennlist and post at Ferrarichat.

    Don't ask me why I do what I do. If I knew the answer to that I'd be set for life.

    It wouldn't, but it would make it a lot easier to justify spending over $100k on a car.
    You knew what I meant.

    i'm sure that most people on here can say that a ferrari is more than just a car...they are pieces of art. in that sense also more than just, 'appealing to the eye'.

    I dont think an enzo is "worth" a million bucks, nor do I think a 430 is "worth" $350K cdn, over priced IMO but other f-cars are priced right. I dont think a 930 turbo cabriolet is worth a dime any day of the week, what a pile of cow dung they are.

    I wouldn't pay a million bucks for any car, even if I had a billion. I think there are values out there and then there are cars that do not justify the price tag. Again, none of this is fact, it is just my opinion. I do not think the F430 is worth $175K, for that, I would be all over the Gallardo (a car I do think that is worth the price tag). I think the 360's are worth it for a $100K, I think the F355's are worth it for $60k, and I think 348's are a steal at under $40k. I think the 328 is not worth it over $40k, I do think the 308 is one of the best buys on the market at $20K.

    To spend on a car...
    $300K+ - F40
    $200K - Vanquish
    $150K - Gallardo
    $100K - an older Diablo
    $80K - Noble M12
    $60K - F355
    $40K - 348
    $30K - mid to late 90's Lotus Esprit Turbo
    $20K - 91' NSX
    $15K - Early 90's Lotus Esprit Turbo
    $10K - 91' BMW 850i
    under $10K - Alfa Romeo Spider Veloce


    Why people would 'hate' on any Exotic company, is stupid...They all have pro's and con's and almost everyone likes at least one model from any exotic car manufacturer. To generalize is dumb. To criticize specifics, thats just voicing your opinion.
