That is a VERY good looking car.
I may let people sit in it for pictures, but no way they would drive it.

Wolfboy and I are meeting tomorrow to stretch the Ferrari's legs!

Wait wait wait, Bporsche Wolfboy?

Oh you sorry sorry sod... :p Don't let him talk about what killed his 924S... :D

Ya... Not sure I'd let Tom touch such a fine automobile.... He might get in a fight with it over upholstery on the seats... ;)

Have fun guys!

If I'm ever in the neighborhood I'll definitely take you up on that. This weekend I traded with my neighbor, I let him drive my C63 and I drove his Evora S. VERY impressed in the Lotus.

Forget the Eclat, the Excel that succeeded was a much better car( with Toyota input for reliability).

Very cool. These cars are meant to be driven and enjoyed.

A co-worker of mine has been nuts over my C4S since I bought it. He comes out to the shop a lot to help out on my projects and some of his own; he was even riding shotgun the first time I drove the C4S (at delivery, it needed plugs and coils before it would get out of its own way). He's a car guy and I knew he'd treat the car well, so I tossed him the keys to it on the Friday before Labor Day weekend. Boy was he surprised! He sent me a pic of himself in the driver seat wearing a %&@#-eating grin, made it totally worth it.

Anybody else have a hard time really giving the beans to someone else's car? I had my neighbor show me what his Evora could really do before I drove it, I doubt I tapped into more than 50% of it's capability. He, on the other hand, was well over 100 on an on-ramp.:D

that's cool- and TRUSTING....

I had the opportunity to take a short drive in a friends' Gallardo. Never got it out of second gear; the ramifications of getting it wrong made it impossible to have fun while I was behind the wheel.

It would be different on a long trip.

this car in in Los Angeles?

hmm..i'll be there sept 25 to 30.. i'd be cool with a ride and a chance to wave at some starlettes. :D

In my opinion, the last good looking Ferrari they made.

This is a very cool and gracious offer from Mike.

I am sure I would drive a Toyota yaris with note enthusiasm. Driving a Ferrari has been something I have always wanted to do. This will be a nirvana experience for sure.

Vash, im up in Palmdale, so north of LA. You're welcome to take her for a spin if you want!

This was an incredible experience.

Mike is a modern gentleman and fantastic company. The 355 sounds amazing at full tilt. Sorry for the white post, but I am still in sensory overload.

Fantastic.

Very cool

Love the wheels:eek: Please tell me you're bringing this to the Indy area! I'll trade you a jumpseat in the 747 for a little right seat time in that thing:cool:

Had a GREAT time meeting Tom tonight and playing around in the high desert with the F-car. Tom is a stand up individual....felt like we'd know each other for years. Seeing the look on his face while driving is what makes owning a car like this worth it!

Had a nice drive around the twisty roads south of Mojave....took her down to Rosamond, went by Willow Springs (and saw a B2 lumbering off into the distance after taking off out of Plant 42!)

...finished up with some food in Mojave!

Great night and glad I could share the experience with Tom!
