My newly acquired F40 replica

I'm just trying to comprehend this... so basically you like how they look and not how they perform and sound???

I mean I can understand that. And it looks as though you think very realistically, but it seems like you do not have any dreams or some type of goal. no offense or anything. It just seems like you are a little too down to earth.

if you had $150M, a $350,000 purchase would be like buying a bicycle. And you will make sooo much in interest that repairs and all will be covered. hell with the interest alone you could probably buy another F40

 

Make up your mind in one post you say that you wouldn't buy a Ferrari and in another post you say that you want a Testarossa.

 

What isn't clear Mark? He wants a TR that is a Ferrari, but a replica. Or is it a replica of a Ferrari replica? What the hell??? ARRRRRHHHHHHHHHH!

 

You are correct on $150M you will make over $19,000 per day interest and that's if you invest in just a basic savings account at the local bank. Don't think you will need to worry about repair bills.

 

Being that my mother was born and grew up in Oregon, I can say this without feeling guilty...

Your opinions seem to be centered a little differently than most, not to say everyone is perfect but its a little disturbing. Maybe its from living in Oregon and being conservative? Your saying you would give most to Charity if you won the lottery? You wouldn't even buy a real car but give it all to trustworthy charities? What makes it a trustful charity, and is all the money really going to those in need?

I have taken an excerpt from an article titled, "Major Charity Heads Reap Rising Pay" from CBS..

"Brian Gallagher, President of the United Way receives a $375,000 base salary (plus numerous expensive benefits) and the Red Cross President Marsha Evans receives $450,000 plus benefits."

If it was so charitable wouldn't money not matter for them, instead just wanting to help no matter what?

And many members on Ferrari chat give to charitable organizations. We just don't center our assets around it. And many California members donate to the 11-99 foundation, which you can look up. You would be suprised what people do with money that have a lot of money, instead of this idea that successful people only spend it on themselves...

 

so you can crash your F40 every week and get it repaired and you still won't lose any

 

umm what denomination are we talking about here?

 

I mis-read post #80, my bad...

please ignore and carry on-

 

So basically you are saying that the person who sold you the $1500(with maybe 3k worth of mods) car for $6500 is an idiot for doing so when he could have easily put 4k more in and sold it for $15,000+

Anyone else find this funny?

 

Who's lives are you really changing? For example, we all donated for Hurricane Katrina victims but how is anyone actually raking benefit when other victims are raping, and killing when people were sheltered at the superdome. I understand your view on charity but when will you ever feel content with what you have done for others?

 

Either that or get arrested once every few months driving drunk with a shotgun and a few hundred thousand in the passenger seat

That's what happens when you give millions of dollars to inbred rednecks.

 

Don't forget to add that all of this occurs outside of a stripclub!

 

Neither do I... unless they're morons, which unfortunately most are.

 

He better do not post his car's pix as everyone will bash him down

I've seen some F40 replicas in the past and all of them looked awful.
Dimensions are almost impossible to duplicate , let alone quality finish

 

hey you look normal. i was expecting to see a picture of tom cruise...

 

I think maybe you came into this thread (or replica ownership, for that matter) thinking that all Ferraris are $200k+ cars? Nothing wrong with that, many people think that, but it's not true.

You can get a very nice 308 in the low 20s, and a 308GT4 in the teens. Those are neat cars, they are fun to drive, sound great, are quite reliable (if you get a good one), and they look great. Furthermore, they are all fully depreciated, and you should be able to sell any of those cars for what you paid for them.

 

Why are you going through all this B.S. You don't have a car.
Are you in prison and need some penpals? Get a life.

 

True... You probably wouldn't want to put 25k miles a year on a Ferrari.

But you could buy one for $20k and drive it maybe 5k miles a year.

And then buy a nice Fiero for around $3k and use that as your daily driver.

 

Can we have the pics please?

 

I am guessing that it looks more like this one.
