Hell yes. 0-60 in 8 seconds. top speed of 120mph. takes like 5 mins to GET to 120!!! haha. I use to to commute though. I had a Infiniti G that I drove as my "beater" but then I felt bad cause I do about 60,000 miles on a car per year. the civic has 250,000+ Miles on it. I replaced the motor at 197,000 miles due to a rod knock...probably because I drive it like a racecar...and its been on Laguna Seca once and Willow Springs 2 times. hahahahaha. :) I treat it like shit. Its been thru 4 windshield, 3 front bumpers, 1 fender, 1 door, 1 rear bumper (got rearended). It runs like a top!

Heres another cake pic. Real Ferrari emblem off of my 1998 Ferrari 355 Spider I had about 4 years ago (my first Ferrari).

lol yeah, there's an area around where I live that's full of "well-off" people(whatever that may mean to you) that drive Ferrari's, Lambos, Porsches, etc and they're all asses about everything. Sure when I drive by my car will set off they're alarm system, but is that really a reason to hate me. That's why the mustang family is easier for me to get along with, they're actual car guys that know what the hell an engine is and how it works rather than if it looks pretty.

Let me guess that area, Johnson County?

You are correct, that and the Plaza area...go down there on a friday evening in the summer time with a Mustang....you're pretty much frowned upon.

ya the plaza is insane, my gf and i go out there everytime im out there. We should kick it next time i'm out there man. (sorry for the threadjack max)

It was time. Its not that fast, honestly a slightly modded cobra could take it 0-120. Its only a 3.6L V8 and it makes almost no power until 7,500 RPM. It was about 2x more comphy than the 599 and had a 12" sub in the front trunk, and all Hertz interior speakers, and a full Tubi exhaust. It was due for a clutch, and a major service, and I sold it for $62,000. I bought it for $55,000 (it needed a left fender and door skin) So I made a lil' on it. For me being a big guy, it was one of the more comphy Ferraris i've had. :)

I have other stuff to worry about like the house @ $6,000 / Month. Its cool though, im down to $725,000 on my Mortgage, then the wife said I can buy something else! :) Just not right now, im kinda slow in the office, so I dont wanna get caught up in to many bills. I owned the 360 out right, but I owed a little bit on the 599, and the payments were $3,125 / month. ouch. Good thing I had GAP insurance so when it got wrecked the Ins. company payed it off (about $135,000. Purchase Price was $240,000 w/ $80,000 down).
