Ferrrari 308 GTB
Zakk:
Anyone have any inside info on the aboveforementionedupthereinthetitle automobile? I'm starting my search for a new 'fun' summer vehicle, and I've always wanted one of these puppies, and since now you can pick one up for under $40,000CAN it's possibly within reach...
I kinda breached the subject with my wife the other day, and while she wasn't overly enthusiastic, I could tell she wants one too :)
So any horror stories anyone knows of? Sure, it's no pontiac firefly, but it might still be fun...

don't you have to grow a Magnum moustache to drive one of those?

There was this one time, I had to pick ALL three kids up at the same time, and I was able to squeeze two of 'em in the passenger seat, but I had to leave the other one there, and on my way to drop off the first batch of kids, it started to RAIN! It wasn't bad for me, but in order for both of them to fit in the passenger seat, I had to take the roof window panel off on their side!
After I picked up the last kid, I tried to dry the passenger side out as best as possible, but I could never get rid of the smell...lemme tell ya, there's nothing worse than that wet kid smell ;D
Oh, and this one time, my thick bushy Magnum mustache wouldn't come off (too much glue or something ::) ) and I was at a stop light...this chick comes over and thinks I'm Tom Selleck and throws herself in through the passenger window and (again, the targa-top window was removed, it was 40o in WI, it was PERFECT "top-off" weather!) wouldn't leave the car, screaming she would do ANYTHING for me...clawing at my pants and shirt and whatnot!
Well, I had things to do, and couldn't have my wife catch me with some strange and hysterical woman, so I drove to the nearest police station to have them remove her. Lo and behold, who should come walking down the stairs from the police station but my wife :o She was there to get a parking permit, of all the luck!
Well, the nutbag was still screaming and trying to tear my clothes off, so it was quite easy to explain to my wife, and after the police came out and locked her up for the night, my wife, admitting she was a bit jealous, started to imitate the nutbag as we drove home. She got so into it, she caused me to lose control of the car, driving off the road and getting a flat tire!
So to sum it all up, if you buy that car, you are certain to get flat tires and a horrible smell you can't remove.
I rue the day I ever thought about buying one of those cars.
Purchase one at your own risk :)
;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Ferrari's are like hot trashy woman with no brain. Not much use for anything but heaps of fun.
We should all go out of our way to have one Ferrari and one trashy woman at least once in our lives, even if they are only for test drives.

I'd like to own a Ferarri... how much is $40000 Cdn? Like $20-30 bucks? I could swing that. ;)
