Pininfarina, the revered Cambiano design house and coachbuilder affiliated with Ferrari. I heard the family recently lost control of their company in a debt restructuring deal, sad.

Yep, was the first Ferrari ever with a front-mounted V8. And I am very jealous. I understand that at 18 I shouldn't complain about not having a Ferrari, but I think that California is so damn gorgeous

Thanks for all the kind words gents

I thought about y'all when I was driving to work this morning with the top down enjoying the sunny morning. Some yahoo in a gray Taurus was trying to race me on a surface road in morning traffic. Guess he didn't like the sh-t eating grin I wear everytime I'm behind the wheel.

Haha thanks Endo, you my Viet boy

I wish I could describe the exhaust which is absolutely orgasmic but here is a video of what I believe is the stock exhaust. BTW, there is a method of pinning the exhaust valves open IIRC using actual golf tees but I worry about constant drone at highway speeds. I would prolly try the pinning first before upgrading to a Capristo exhaust which seems the exhaust of choice for a lot of Ferraris.

Anywho. I know rick, you've been searching awhile for a new car and was pretty stuck on a R8, so you totally surprised me when you texted me that you had gotten a F-car. Cant wait to see it in person the next time im in Hawaii.
