I remember when Jeremy and "Hammster" where laughing at May (owns 430)

And in one episode Jeremy was testing May's 430, aeting cheaps and chocolade :)

I've been 458 Italia fan since i'd first see it on road here in Poland. One of the first 458's crashed for sure :)

Milder obsession case with the MP4-12C. If you wanna ignite the Ferrari vs. Mclaren here, come at me bro. I find its engine hush and its all around beauty something to drool at.

I did the exact same thing with the Cappuccino. Ever since I saw it in the game and drove it, I've been obsessed with it. I've already found several listings for it and am now trying to figure out any loopholes that would let me drive it legally in the States.

I can even imagine the headlines
"Videogame persuades man to buy car"

Also, a few months ago I figured out my forum name could stand for The Cappuccino Enthusiast. I'm freakin' obsessed with this car. I even gave mine a nickname.

Your only realistic chance to do it 100% on the up-and-up (meaning federally legal) is to wait until they hit the 25 year NHSTA exemption age.

Or, you could find one that has been track-prepped, and register it in some legit racing series here in the US, and bring it in under the Race Exemption, but then you'd have to ship it back afterwards (or keep racing it), and it wouldn't be road-legal.

There were far too many produced and it doesn't hold any special historical significance, so the Show & Display Exemption doesn't apply.

If you're in a rush and got the funds, you could always buy a bunch of them and crash test them until figure out what modifications you need to get it to pass. Then go through the EPA side of things and get it to pass emissions standards (and develop and OBD-II system if it's a 96+ model). Just leave one to bring into compliance with NHTSA & EPA, and you're good to go.
 
It's not a bad thing because i'm axactly like you. For me the best ferrari ever, the best car ever, and i'm proud that it have the word "Italia" in the name.
But not only in gt5 of course lol, i had the occasion to be on a 458 and it was like a dream...no, i wasn't driving ç_ç

Yes you are, and yes, it's really bad expecially if you consider this car is called "Italia" which isn't a good thing if you think about all those clichè phrases about italians, wrong most of the times, because we are even worse than you can imagine :scared: :lol: Not that calling a Ferrari "Super America" or "California" will lead you to a much better result :sly: Ferrari should stop go obvious and name their cars "Sweden" or "Denmark" which are better countries with better governaments and laws..

...not to mention how nice those swedish/danish girls looks like, perfectly fitting the idea of awesomeness you have from a supercar like that. :dopey:
 
I get the same feeling with Porsche cars. Even though i'm 15 I own two 911 buyers guides.

The Italia is a great car, but theres something that keeps me from keeping it every time i buy it.

The fact you insanely love Porsche which is a Ferrari fierce rival. It's like me when I check these good looking McLaren cars but I always keep thinking about the 2007 spy story so I can't buy them :O

TIP: don't follow me, forget about your favourite team when you play GT5. You will drive much more premium cars lol :sly:
 
Set it right and its one of the best cars in the game! Top Gear just proved tho that the McLaren named after a faxmachine seems to be better in every single way...well, this is "my" car i'm obsessed with! Cheers mate, u are absolutely ok, its called Petrolhead ;-)

Good. Just as it should be. Btw are any of you guys knowing enough to be able to tell me how I could get a wallpaper of the 458 with the black roof and dark 5 spoke rims? I can't seem to find one and it doesn't seem to be easy to search. Any help would be appreciated đź‘Ť

Hey! I can help you with that, I saw one just like it in the center of London the other day, it was red, and I got some decent pics of it, so PM me and I'll email it to you :D
 
I know the feeling about being obsessed with a particular car. Mine is and always will be the Countach!
