There's a Ferrari dealer about 5 blocks from my home. I've seen Enzos being gassed up at the local gas station.

Someone passed me on the street the other day in a yellow Testerosa. Didn't look real new and sounded like crap so no idea how old it was. But in Milwaukee, WI, you don't seem many Ferraris.

I'd take the Ferrari any day over any Ford...except maybe the GT-40.

those new corvettes look a lot like ferraris, saw one the other day. very nice. too low to the ground to drive here in CT tho...there was one in my parking lot, trying to get onto the main road...he made it, slowly, but not without a loud screeecchhh from the bottom scraping the hill :p

on a good sunny weekend .. u can prolly see 4-6 (some are like old (but not vintage) here in Johnson County, KS ...

... most memorable ferrari sighting (not car shows) .. was when my wife (who does not share the same affinity for cars as I do) was ranting about kids with loud mufflers ... how she doesnt like them ... noise polluatnats and so on ... and then she hears a low rumble as we are stopped at a redlt and she says ... now this is the growl i like ... it was very low throbbing rumble ... and we were in a z3 with top down so its getting intense and we turn around and we see a red 575 coming right behind us ... and my wife said wow ... she was mighty impressed ... good sex that night :)


cliffs:
wife hates loud mufflers
hears low rumble of a ferrari
very impressed
good sex
so ferrari is not overrated
