Ferrari Day on Preston Street.

Nice way to spend an afternoon. They had a straightaway sectioned off so that they drivers could give it. Some of them put the pedal down pretty good....

My Favorite, by far:

Yeah, apparently the Village Idiot (hint, he works at Partsource) told people that it wasn't worth it...so I had to go alone.

John, don't give him so much credit, he's more of the City idiot.

Would have been more fitting if they held it on Bank Street.

I've always been a fan of real classic ferrari's.

In any case, I know a guy who leased a 355 for a couple months. I took a test ride with him in a 430, to compare about a month ago. It was unbelivable the difference in performance. This was before we realized it had 110 more HP. When his lease is up, he wants to sell his house for a 430 and move in with his mom. Maintenance is supposed to have a better track record then the previous V8 Prancing Ponies.

Always nice to see Ferrari's hit the town.

Love the F355. Too bad alot of the later models are bought with the F1 paddel system... Would still prefer the manual.

Still nice to see!

lates,

Guys, if you missed it, then take a day trip to Montreal next weekend. On saturday they close off a douzen streets for car shows concerts and all kinds of events - all with the F1 song as the background music. Well worth the 2 hour drive.

Anyone else going to the GP next weekend?

I saw that F430 on elgin tonight. Car looked mint, the guy driving it was a jackass. He kept revving it and looking around to see who was looking at him, talk about your midlife crisis. I also saw a beautiful vintage AC cobra...

You're right, I didn't 'here' anything. It's what I heard that matters...

speaking of ****...just remember you spaghetti-eaters were on our side in WW2, doing nothing but making trouble for the German military advance. Then, when the going got tough, we took the loss like men, the ginos switched sides.
