Maybe he's talking about the man himself, and not his cars.

Still, how do you know the sexual orientation of Enzo Ferrari? If I'm not mistaken, he's dead.
 
Yea thats pretty sick dude... insulting a dead man that cant even defend himself... your a sad sad man. Go get yourself an analplug and shut it.

anybody got Jay Kay's (of Jameriqui) car list?
he got an Enzo, didn't know he had a F40/50.
Thank the lord for MR cars, or that could be one nice engine that was destroyed.
 
Alongside the Enzo, Jay Kay has...

ALSO IN JAY'S GARAGE:

Lamborghini Miura SV (1972) – £250,000
One of seven right-hand-drive cars made — with 385bhp and 180mph potential, the ultimate evolution of world’s first mid-engined supercar.

BMW 1602 (1972) – £5,000
Kay’s first car. Delightful 1.6-litre saloon.

Bentley S1 Continental Park Ward drophead (1958) – £175,000
Rare and elegant, in its era the ultimate way to arrive.

Mercedes 300 SL roadster (1963) – £180,000
The first true post-war supercar, capable of 150mph.

Aston Martin DB5 (1964) – £125,000
Transport of choice for James Bond.


BMW 2002 Turbo (1974) – £18,000
One of the first turbo-cars ever sold.

Ferrari 360 Spyder – £100,000
No roof, so you hear the 400bhp V8 even better.

Ferrari 250 GTO replica – £200,000
Almost as good as the real thing.

Ferrari 550 Maranello – £85,000
Generally considered Ferrari's best car of recent years.

Mercedes 600 Pullman (1973) – £100,000
Formerly owned by Coco Chanel.

Mercedes 600 short wheelbase (1968) – £50,000
An unlikely performance car with big power despite sedate looks.

Bentley Arnage Turbo – £100,000
The original tidal wave on wheels and still the fastest four door car in production.

Audi RS6 – £50,000
Audi’s answer to the BMW M5 and, with 450bhp, a pretty convincing one at that.

Audi RS4 – £30,000
A 380bhp, A4-based estate — the ultimate all-rounder?

Three Mercedes G-Wagens – £40,000 (approx) each
Mercedes’ answer to the original Range Rover, sold well in Europe.

Unless the track was a 12ft circle... :D

Jay has a black Enzo, I believe. Some guy from The Who has a yellow one. The third Enzo in the UK - and the first red one - broke down on the A12, causing a nine mile tailback which I was stuck in.

As an aside, someone from The Prodigy (not Keith) owns a TVR Speed 12.
 
And, much though you'd love to hate him for it, he drives every single one of them. And he can drive...

Did you give him the bird for causing that back up?

why does everyone hate ferraris (its not like you can beat one on the track with one of your cars)
everyone hates it cuz there jealous of the performance and the praise it gets (which it deserves).

i love ferraris, some of the best sounding engines in the world, way better than any 4-gerbal machine or v6 and better than most v8s.
& if anyone says the 360 modena sounds like a 4-gerbal civic, they should be SHOT

8500 rpm I think that would sound like a grebal engine :O
 
theres a difference between gerbal torque and a modenas torque.
if you havnt heard both engines dont reply.
they obviously do not sound alike, its like saying when a cow moo's it sounds like a *ucken cat meow-ing.
 
let me re-phrase that. . . the cars are over priced for there worth. . . Although a modena hmmm :D
 
skyline is over priced and so is the nsx (but the nsx does kick ass) maybe if they lowered the price about 20 grand, then it would be nice.

I don't know... There's always the thought that people are buying a Ferrari because it is a Ferrari - like a Rolex, Paul Smith suit and the like - without any thought of whether it's a good car or worth the money. And Ferrari drivers are generally tossers (although my dad is mulling over a 308 currently - he's planning on getting rid of his boat & Focus and pooling the £17k for something spectacular before he dies. But he's not THAT daft) - "I drive a Ferrari... Common scum.". Actually, that was the single real aspect in F&F...

Ferraris tend to have shocking build quality (seen the interior of the Enzo?), appalling reliability and similar performance to cars half the price. And the 360 Modena is quite staggeringly ugly in real life. True, the engines sound lovely - a "rorty" V8 as opposed to a throaty, typically American V8 (which is also nice) - but you have to be able to start it first... Vanquish is better though :D


And the only reason the queue was 9 miles long - he was parked on the shoulder causing no obstruction - was that everyone was stopping to point and laugh.
 
^ ive seen a modena in real life and its not ugly.
i have seen the f40, f50, enzo and those cars are certainly not ugly, i guess its in the eye of the beholder.
as for the vanquish its nice i would take it over a 575 maranello but even jeremy clarkson and damon hill would take a 575 over the vanquish (which has a higher depreciation rate and is slower then the 575)...
 
The F40 is the finest design of any car ever.

The F50 is the worst. The Enzo is close behind. The 360 Modena is just gaudy and gross. On a public road it will entirely fill one side of it - it's not possible for two to pass in opposite directions. Now the 1:18 model I have of it is lovely, and in pictures it's also nice. But in real life... No.

The 550/575 is my favourite current Ferrari. I saw one on the M2 the other week and it wasn't tacky in any way. Just an understated piece of metal with a hole in the bonnet. Nice.

Is there such a thing as depreciation with Astons?
 
f50 is awesome i love the 2 fans in the front which actually serve 2 purposes..
and yes according to that fat guy in top gear there is a depreciation, hes probably an exotic car dealer?
 
The fat guy left after his first series... He was a trader of all sorts, oddly - new, old, crap, classic, fast.. everything.

Most vehicles depreciate over time, reaching a final trough value from which they never drop - it's still not possible to buy a Ferrari F40 which hasn't been totalled for less than £185,000 - nearly 20 years later... Some then actually appreciate in value - $10,000,000 for a 250 GTO anyone?

I'd imagine the depreciation hit isn't something someone who can afford £150,000 for a 575 or Vanquish would be particularly worrying about.
