    Well, it's difference of opinion that makes horse races! LOL!

    Thanks, and welcome here!

    No, you don't have to have a Ferrari to be here!

    We had some NSXs at the Running of the Bulls........they got in the most trouble with Law Enforcement!

    Not me, I got in good with the local sheriff, when he showed up on Goodyear tires he won a Blimp shaped antenna ball! He had a lot of darn antennas too!

    He only took one however, said he was gonna put it on his 'vette!

    What do a dead GI, having a small penis, Rolls Royce or the one guy being engaged have to do with the subject of 348 versus NSX?

    You can witness the same argument from a NSX bias if you prefer, but its hardly worth the effort.

    Why do people take these issues so personally? It is a car, buy the one you prefer, end of story. People take your selecting the other brand as a personal insult, how childish is this?

    My mother recently purchased a Mercury Grand Marquis for herself, I can promise you she does not take it as an insult if another old lady parks next to her in a Buick. If mom wanted a Buick, she would have looked at them, maybe taken one for a test drive, maybe she did, I have no idea.

    Why do people have to argue when a Ferrari is part of the discussion? Do seventy five year old ladies have a chatroom where they argue Mercury versus Buick? I can see granny now, "I drove the Regal, its the worst Buick ever made, made my hip replacement hurt when I got out, I could have afforded the Buick, but I chose the Mercury, any idiot knows the Mercury is where it is at".

    Do you see how childish this all is? If you find yourself feeling for one side or the other, you have too much emotion vested in your vehicle. What you drive only defines you if you allow to.

    Quote from Ashley on Prime:
    "An NSX = Screw one if you can
    A Ferrari = Screw one if you can
    A Lambo = There ya go buddy!

    P.S. NSX owners are very insecure"

    Do Ferraris make you horrrnnnney baby?

    Just kidding. Welcome to the site. Post some pics in the bikini thread. The guys here will dig them a lot more than the response you got from the ricer crowd. Oops, did I say that out loud? Might want to e-mail one to John Lamour for prior approval. ;-) He's the resident expert on babes and silicone around here.

    I used to check out Prime a lot during my time with a couple NSX's...I still visit it every once in a while...I'm a huge NSX fan, can't wait for the new one they are speculating about in the "next gen" section....

    That being said, I found the most relevant post in that thread near the first few....

    " hahaha what is funny though is.... they talk about the nsx... the same way some of us talk about the corvette... LOL!!!

    i guess its always a matter of perspective... LOL!"

    Yes, I read many a thread in my time at Prime regarding the inevitable "NSX or vet" question...with many a similar response. What do you expect?..its an NSX site...much like this is a Ferrari site! Surprise, surprise!

    People should just chill out...they are all great cars!

    Yep, we've all heard this conversation several times. Whether it's the Porsche vs Ferrari Ferrari vs Lamborghini Porsche vs Vette Ferrari vs NSX, it doesnt matter. Drive what you enjoy, to each his own.

    See, i just don't see the reality in this...

    ...what old lady would ever end a sentence in a preposition...?!? :D


    Anyone know what a 375 F1 is...?


    While we're discussing it, i wouldn't mind seeing pictures of an all black NSX with black wheels (no silver lips, thanks)...

    Carbon,
    Maybe a 375 F1 is a 355 bored twenty over with a F1 gearbox ;-).

    Funny you mention it, because I thought the same thing when I read it. What the h*ll is a 375 F1?

    Are we being badge snobs because we're taking harmless, innocent shots at one man's unwitting model type reference mistake...?

    In all seriousness, he probably meant 575. Typo. Funny just the same.

    I don't think so. He is acting like he knows a lot about Ferraris and I don't think he does. Simple as that, no snobbery involved.

    Seriously though, is there any such thing as a 355 Stradale? I know I have heard of a 348 Speciale or something like that, but I have never heard of a 355 Stradale.
