2004 ferrari VS 1994 SL500
i was cruzin in newport when a bright yellow ferrari (marinello or barschetta (cant spell)or somthing, the long shark coupe looking one not modena) pulls up and my top was down and his window was down. i complemented him on his nice car and he asked if i wanted to race. i was like..... uh ok. he was like 100bucks to the next light. im thinking he has a 225 hp gain on me not to menton its a fricken ferrari! i was like no. when the light turned green we both punched it and he burned out in five gears and won by a good amount. it was fun, he was an *** thought. i dont like old men in ferraris picking on 17 year olds.

If the 575 In question truely did go through 5 gears, you wouldnt be able to see it. Also its called a maranello.

it is true, what is the point about lying about a loss? here in newport beach it is not rare to race very nice cars here, we have 4-5 Enzos and 7 Carra GT and 3 SLRs. it is fun to see what the must expensive car you see. the other day a 04' Viper and an 03-04 Porsche Turbo go at it. i went at it to but that was not even fun becasue those guys are SO0o fast. those cars are the familys cars but the SL is mine, durring the weekend i usualy drive the E500 or the Porsche.

that would be a 550 Barchetta, the 575 Convertible is called the 575M Superamerica.

He has a 2005 Porsche Cayenne Turbo coming next week in Titanium Metallic
with Full Carbon Fiber interior.
B@stard also has a G55 coming soon when it arrives and maybe the new SLK55.
I envy him, but he's a cool guy.

About the last thing that I would do after someone compliments me on my car is ask them to race.......that was a crappy move on his part. It's guys like that that gives us Fcar guys a bad name.

i agree, it showded that he did not have any class. and also he wanted to take my $$$!! I mean obvoulsy he would win because he does have about 200 hp on me. he was a dik. but it was neat to see that car do what it was made to do. (Take money from 16 yearolds lol!!) ha
