If we have to read it, it's our business...what you SHOULD have said was, "You do your job, I'll do mine." That would have sounded way more badass.

With the history he has, the last thing we need is him playing board police. And that's all I'll say on this.




Are you sure it's a real Countach, not some shady kit car?
 
Bleah, Countach kit cars. I saw a Fiero-based kit car that had the exhaust (muffler and everything) actually outside the bodywork. Also, make sure it's not a later Countach or a 25 anniv. edition. They are "teh hideousness."
 
2 months ago, I have a female friend who's dad owns a Ferrari 360 Spyder. He went out of town and knows I am a Ferrari fanatic. She took it out and drove to my college campus. She called me and told me to come outside. Imagine my suprise when I see this fine lady sitting in a Ferrari 360 Spyder!! She tells me to get in. We drove around campus for a bit and she pulled into a parking lot. She gets out and says I can drive. I was so nervous that I almost stalled out just trying to pull out. My hands and feet were shaking like crazy. We hit the Interstate and I was coming down the ramp and saw that I was going to have to go a little faster to get in front of a semi. I dipped about 3/4 into the throttle and the car mashed my back into the seat. I was blow away with the car. I pushed it to the floor one time and just watched the traffic blur into streaks. I never could have imagined what that would have felt like before then. After about 2 seconds of full throttle I got scared of cops and let off. We drove around all day. It was perhaps the greatest day of my life. Definately the greatest ride of my life. And we're already planning round round 2 for the next time he goes out of town.

You lucky lucky lucky errrr thing.
I did one of those driving experience things a few years back and drove an F355 :) , wasnt half as much fun as the Lotus Elise I drove after that though. Although a LOT more power.
 
nothing compares to sitting in an exige though......or getting into it at least.

boy was that fun. that car is like lightning though.
 
Dude... I would trade the 360 for the F355. Anyday. And as much fun as I'm sure the Louts is, it's still no Ferrari. Don't get me wrong, I love the Elise. But I love Ferraris more. What's funny is that some guy in a Civic revved on me at a stop light. I just looked at him. I'm sitting an a Ferrari 360 Spyder with a beautiful girl and he is in a hatchback Civic with stickers all over it and a unpainted body kit. This guy can't be serious. I watched him launch the thing and take off down the road. I gently roll out and catch up to him at the next light. He rolls down the window and yells "Yeeeaaaauuuuuhhhhh. I smoked yo' shizzle and you's in a damn Lambourgini! How dat feel, boooyyyyeeeee!?" Some people should be shot in the face in order to keep them from reproducing.
 
If he doesn't know you're in a Ferrari, and he's got a riced looking Civic, he's been watching the F&F movies too much.


I've been in alot of nice cars. Neighbor's F355, and wife's Mercedes, Porsche 911 Targa, Carrera 4S, Cayenne Turbo, Toureag, not to mention snagging rides when an event comes up. Quite alot of nice cars I've been in.
 
well if you dont think thats exciting for you just go away. i am excited because in nz there aint much sort of cars like this around (well were i live) and i have never been in a fast car before its not a replica its real ive spoken to the owner and he said well go for a drive round the roads no race track round here:( date is still undicided by him:(
 
no one said it wasnt exciting, also many people here would love to ride in lambourghini's.

If it hadn't been for his ignorant boasting, I would have suspected the only reason he "revved" you was to see you rip off down the road as fast as possible. You rarely see a Ferrari on the road, and when you do it's always driving slow. But yeah, that guy sounds like the president of the Asshat Club...

That gave me a chuckle.. Though, if i had been me, i would have let him make his comment, and then made a comment like "Okay, well, lets try that again, shall we?" And then see the look on his face when i completely disgraced him in his stupid civic.. Then boast "Yeah! I smoked yo' shizzle! Boyyeeee!!!" Ahah.

That would be most hilarious.

Couldn't be him. Rumple Foreskin was the president of the Rumple/Asshat club.
 
I might be getting a ride in this 550 hp GT-R this weekend so i'll bring my camera. :)
 
Well one of the guys from our Skyline club who went for a ride in the aformentioned car on Saturday said that as soon as it hit 5k it jumped into the other lane, everything went blurry and he got tunnel vision. He said that he would never get a GT-R that powerful.

Bring it on!!
 
The beast in question (i'll try take better pics of it).
