In years past, I used to love Ferraris.
But for some reason, call it growing old, jaded, cynical, whatever, they just don't do anything for me anymore. Oh sure, I'm still impressed with their performance, but I just can't get excited about their cars anymore.
I guess my youth is gone.
I have only ever wanted one ferrari since I was a kid. I wanted a yellow F355. I alsways thought they were sexy as hell even though they werent that quick.

I am the same but thinking hard about it, I think it is due mostly to their crazy maintenance costs...and I would rather have a Porsche or Lamborghini...AWD!

Good choice putting $4,000 rims on your 1990 Honda Civic. That's like Betty White going out and getting her tits done.
Folks with that much money either a) self insure, because why just hand your money over to someone else when you can just be careful or b) spend the money, crash it, blame it on Dietrich, and try to collect insurance money.

it's a term the Marines (and the Navy?) use. it's that guy on float who insists he knows all the ins, outs, and loopholes of the legal code that the Marines follow. usually used as a pejorative but sometimes I've heard of guys who really DO know their stuff and are also referred to as a "sea lawyer" by their friends.

a-ha, thanks for the clarification. I've heard some things about maritime law. Sounds like something the life of the party goes for
You aim too high. I would LOVE to own a simple plan Jane 360 Modena. Beautiful, functional, and priced low enough that one day I might be able to afford a third hand one.

I highly doubt I'll ever be able to afford a 360. modern Ferraris hold their value better than they did in the 70's and 80's and even then the maintenance will eat you alive. I love the 360, but I'm not even gonna dream...
