Carbon 34 Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 they don't impress me at all, if you have ever driven one for a long time and are over 6 ft tall or worked on one you know they aren't put together very well compared to a lexus or even a honda ??? they look nice draws chicks like flies on shite, (mostly gold diggers!!) sound nice drive a few was a huge disapointment. but to each his own I guess bet they would frown upon us low class skyline drivers showing them up on the curcuit track ..lol Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/344023-ferraris/#findComment-5545772 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krishy Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 owning a Ferrari is like saying "look at me i got $$$" and i agree with you troy that there would be a few imports that would show them up on the track Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/344023-ferraris/#findComment-5545812 Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are not track built cars, they are prestige sports cars, so saying that you will show them up on the track stiff shit. They are still worth more than the house you will never own. Do you see an F1 Skyline? NO but you do see a F1 Ferrari. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/344023-ferraris/#findComment-5546560 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Different philosophies at work Scuderia Ferrari sell road cars to fund their racing ambitions. Pure and simple. This is why Tifosi are so fanatical Nissan create the best road going cars they can as that is their primary focus. Their racing ambitions come secondary. This is extremely common (think Mercedes/AMG, Porsche/RUF, Nissan/Nismo, Holden/HSV, Ford/FPV etc). These manufacturers only do racing to get prestige among certain market segments. You cannot compare the two. Ferraris, Lambos, etc, are wild to rock on a track, but you try to reverse them into a parallel park, or even an angle park, you'll be swearing more than a pissed sailor on shore leave... Some perspective should be used when comparing any Brand, let alone models. Their motives determine what kind of car they produce.... for good or bad.. -D Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/344023-ferraris/#findComment-5546657 Share on other sites More sharing options...
