Re: Ferrari estate breaks with tradition
ISUK:
I just read this hilarious post by member bdelp over on F chat and just had to post it here. It's so true and applicable to many forums about many sports cars....
"If Ferrari, Lotus, and McLaren listened to what people on Fchat wanted in a super car, they'd go out of business.
If people on Fchat built the perfect super car it would
Look like a 308 or 355 or a some combination of the two (of which there would still be arguments) and still stick to the ground at 280 MPH like glue
Weigh less than a Caterham super 7
Be smaller than a Lotus Europa yet comfortably fit a 6 foot 5 inch 300 lb man
Be built 100% out of Carbon Fibre and Titanium
Have a motor twice as powerful as the Bugatti Veyron (but without turbos)
Have no electronics of anykind
Have a 6 speed manual gearbox but have a clutch that never wears out
Be offered only in Red and Black
Cost the same as a 308
Be sold for 20 grand under MSRP
Have a 20 year warranty
Have steel brakes that perform like CCB's but cost as much as a Honda's brakes would to replace.
Have an exhaust sound like a combination of an F1 car, an Enzo an F40 placed side by side
Be restricted to only a few hundred examples made a year --but have no waiting lists
Have a written guaranteed resale value that's 20% higher than they bought it."
- this would sum-up lots of discussion topics in the whole forum
