I'm ordering one here in Brazil, you know, had a couple of millions burning in my pocket and decided to give it a try. I can pay for your flight over here, as well as a hotel for your stay. Just let me know if you really want to.

Now that you mentioned it, I realized I can't fit my Thule roof rack to carry my mountain bike to the trails. Darn, will have to cancel the order. aquadorhj, sorry pal... ;D

I really used to rate Ferraris, but think that they have, somehow, lost their way.
IMHO a Ferrari used be be designed and styled for someone who could really drive it. Now they seem to be designed to go with the image of those who can afford them.

Didn't see this one before.  WOW......   :drool:

They used 458's for the Ferreri Challenge races at the Montreal F1.  Listening to a group of them at WOT going up the back straight was spine tingling!!!

i MUST be going bonkers...  i don't want this ferrari.  :o  i can honestly tell you, even if i won a lotto today, this car won't make top 3 car purchases.

..maybe within top 10, just to see what the fuss is about...

i don't know what it is with me nowadays...  i must be crazy, too old or suffering early onset of senility or something...

i still think 355 is the best ferrari ever.   ;D
