  2. But that's more of a boulevard cruiser than a race car that is fun to drive.

    Lambo has ground clearance problems worse than ferrari typically. You can't drive up a driveway or anwhere except a nice flat surface. Fast as can be, people test drive and get out with their legs shaky it is so fast. All wheel drive too with the newer ones, start to understeer and it shifts power to the front wheels to pull you around the corner. It's a heavy car typically, 3900 pounds maybe for the Diablo and Murcielagos. Some people worry about the scissor doors and not being able to get out after a wreck because they are electrically operated.

    I saw one burn up in a garage once btw. The mechanics were trying to start it, smoke started rolling out of the engine area and shortly after it was engulfed!! That was an upset garage owner for sure. Hero to zero in a minute.

  4. Always have a fire extinguisher handy when you own a supercar. This type of engine fire disaster happens frequently.

    The 328 is the one to get per the Ferrari buyers guide. It is the most practical of the ones in the last 30 years. It is well built and reliable. Cars like this are not cheap to maintain though even if this is the most reasonable Ferrari to keep on the road. I would own one of these if I fit in it. They aren’t designed for folks over 5’10”.


    If you want a sexy investment you can keep on the road while it appreciates, get a 60s Jaguar E-type convertible. A decent one will cost the same as a 328. Better than money in the bank.

  7. All of you are missing the point.

    Think of all the p*ssy he'll get. It's so easy...

    1. He drives up to a restaurant around closing time.

    2. Ask them if they know a good bar / clubs to hang out at.

    3. 90% of waitresses / bartenders like to go out drinking after work. Most of the time, they'll want to invite you with them so that they can stroll up to the bar in your Ferrari.

    I've worked in restaurants, as a chef, for a while in Chicago. I've seen plenty of waitresses/bartenders wagging their tails to find opportunities to get out of serving tables...

    If you do drugs... that helps out a lot, too.

    Yep. I worked at a top restaurant in Southeastern Michigan for 2 years. Over 90% of the employees smoked the reefer (among other things) regularly.

  9. No way. That implies a 0-60 time of about 2.3 sec, impossible for a stock street car.

    This is the silliest quote I've seen in ET ever. :D

    Jump on a plane and go to Brazil, Thailand or even drive to Mexico IF you want chicks that will fall for you because of what you HAVE.

    :cool:
