Apparently that link is now dead. I was trying to show it to my wife and it is giving me a Forbidden message.

Anybody know where I can find it again?

Hmmm Even though we've swapped cars recently, I don't feel I know you well enough so I'm just going to leave that one alone... :P

I just got done watching it... (thank you dvr). I would have to agree with them, I would take a F40 over the F60 too.

Agreed. The F40 is still one of my favorite cars of all time. I looked at a competition version that Foreign Cars Italia had in their show room in Feb. What he said about the thin paint is true. You really can see the CF weave through the paint. That will always be one of the sexiest cars ever to me.

Todd,
Did you get it? I was not sure if my E-mail system would send that large a file.

Funny you mention Foreign Italia. Charlie and I peeked in the windows at about 9pm after day one of the NCAC and they had a Yellow Enzo and F50 on display (or for sale depending on your finances :lol: ).

Personally, I'd take a 360 Stradale and keep the change.

I love the F 40 as well. I distinctly remember when they first were released for a cool mil. I was in 5th grade...

Stopped in at Foreign Italia back in March and they had a gorgeous 1973 Ferrari 365 GTB/4 Daytona spyder sitting on the showroom. The salesman told me that some guy had just leased it for something like 3,000 per month. That car is probably my favorite Ferrari with the F40 coming in a close 2nd. My first time seeing an F40 was up at Lime Rock Park in Connecticut several years back when a doctor drove to the track in his F40 on race slicks for a time trial.

That Enzo is probably Robert Rapp's (owner of FCI) car. I know he sold his collection of racing Ferrari's to buy it. He had a F333SP tht Rebecca and I saw on track at VIR a few years ago. NICE car. He even had it set up with a passenger seat!!!!!

When I stopped by FCI in Feb, there was the F40, F50, the afore mentioned Daytona Spyder, a beautiful Dino, and for some reason there was an SL55 AMG sitting in there? Those cars, along with the beautiful new Ferraris, Maseratis, Aston Martins, and Porsches really made the stop worth it. I highly recommend it to anyone with a little spare time driving through Greensboro. They had no problem with me just looking at the cars.

BTW - Still can't find that video of Sabine driving that van around the Ring!

I sent the file but the E-mail was returned. Probably exceeds your inbox limit. It was a 24 meg E-mail. :shock:
