Now Tigr8 you stated it was the F1? Is that the model where they made to many GT cars and sold the extra's to the public (has a small stripe(s) down the middle of the car). If so omfg... they are going to have fun in that car. Even if its not.. damn. Again I want a wife like that she rocks!

I'm going to tell my wife tonight that it's been my life long dream to be married to four hot women who each earn incredible salaries in their high paid jobs. I guess I might have to move out of the country to achive this goal, but I'm willing to accept compromises.

That'll be kind of interesting to see... a Ferrari amidst a flock of 8s. I really hope he goes with a bunch of us maniacs cuz he's still somewhat nervous about driving it. One trip with us will cure him!

Beautiful car - but I wonder, if it were mass produced, available for say 13K, and made by Hundai, would it have the same appeal?
Still - that man had better be true to his wife!

. I'd be amazed if anything happened to these two. I've known them for 6 years and they restored my belief in marriage.

360 is still the best looking modern Ferrari. Do you have any pics of him picking it up at the dealer? I am sure the look on his face is priceless
