i'm liking it. what do you think?

Only buy a Ferrari if you are hung like a flea.

says Brad Shaw ;)

Looks like the hood of a viper slightly?

I'd take one for sure. :glugglug

For the price its ok. When a car gets that expensive I would like it to wipe my ass as well. :1orglaugh

Thats what everyone who cant afford one says.

damn nice car! too small for me though, carseats arent made for expensive sports cars

Awesome looking ride...buy it :thumbsup

you are liking ferraris more and more eh? dude, go ahead and get 1. if you want one, and it seems to me you do, and if you can afford it and be happy making the payment... why not get 1?

we only live once.

Haha I dont think making a payment on a Ferrari is that good of an idea... if you cant pay cash you probably shouldnt buy it

Wow, I dont know what to think. Is the modena hotter, or is the 430 hotter?

The 430 is definitly a great next-step for ferrari.

post old pics to compare

i would think not making a monthly payment would be a bad idea.
thats neather here nor there. me and you can hope that quiet buys that fucker and then picks one of our sorry asses up 1 day.

A Ferrari has style - I don't know, if I'd win the mega lottery, I think of all crazy shit I could buy I'd most certainly buy a Ferrari. The look of it commands the road like stingray slides across the ocean floor. Me likes, quiet.....if you want it treat yourself!! *in case you were waiting for my approval* :1orglaugh :glugglug

paying cash is not a problem lol

yeah i was just thinking of brandon saying "if you can be happy with the payment a ferrari is a good idea"

im not that far off from affording a ferrari myself

A younger buddy of mine just bought his first Porsche and accidently backed into some big rocks near his driveway after having it for only 3 hours.

:(
