Where else would it be?

aahhhhh, so you just rode as a passenger around in the garage.

I rode around Tokyo, but did you expect me to jump out of the car and take pics while we were stopped at a light? I have pics at the gas station we went to, but I'm not in them.

We drove to the dealership he bought it at, and I took pics of the cars there (including a ferrari f40). He dropped off the car and we left in his BMW (my gf followed us there).

So, I think that's that

Considering the immaturity and flat out stupidity of 99% of your posts, and seeing as most of them are simple trolling and attention whoring, I see no reason this one is in that 1%.

pwned

owned my ass. i called him an attention whore and a liar. His post SAID he DROVE it. He DIDNT.
I = teh winnar. Someone got owned, wasnt me though

I never said I drove it. I said I drove in it (much like you would say, "we drove around in the car today"). I thought it was clear but I edited the post to make it perfectly clear.

I never lied

*jumps into conversation...

I don't think you undertand what "drove" means. So a baby in a passenger seat "drove" around in his mom's van because he was a passenger? No.

*jumps back out

Well, if I said this, "Today, my gf and I drove around town", would that be correct if she was the only one driving?

I meant for my title to have the same meaning as the above sentence, but since some people obviously didn't take it the way that I intended, I edited it. I don't think anyone is really wrong here.

Now, if I was trying to lie about driving the car, I could have easily claimed to. You can't take a picture of someone actually driving the car easily, so I could have just taken many still shots of me at different parking lots or whatever. But of course, I would have chosen a better location than inside a garage to try and decieve people ;)

Drive = Drove

Ride = Rode

Drove != Rode

Yeah, ferrari's are horrible as far as longetivity, that is the real reason no one puts any miles on it. They had a car and driver (or some mag) endurance test for it where they drove it daily. In the first few weeks, the oil pressure GAUGE broke and the car was rendered inoperable... great engineering.

I've never liked Ferrari. The cars look nice in showrooms or on posters, and they go really, really fast, but they've always struck me as a total waste of money. They're nothing more than a status symbol.

The sort of person who buys a Ferrari is the kind that comes into wealth quickly, or one who lacks class and style.

Want a fast car? Buy a Porsche.

right on my brotha

how ive always felt,

why buy an expensive car YOU CANT DRIVE?

That's why you get an NSX.

That was the intention I had for the word. :)
;) yes that is #4 on the list. #3 is: To guide, control, or direct (a vehicle). (more commonly used definition)

I agree, but just because it's not as common doesn't mean I can't use it ;)

Well then, you've obviously never been to Japan then ;)

About 10% of the cars I've seen have the wheel on the LEFT side. This is because there are many European cars that have come over (not to mention the occasional Chevy/Ford).

So Ferrari is from Italy, and the wheel is most definately on the left side
