I am thinking you parked your car next to it.....sneaked a pic in (you stated this yourself)....and then came up with this driving story...

Tis' a nice car though
Not that I have to prove myself, but Ok, I'll bite.

I didn't park my car next to a car I drove, because I did not drive that F430. I drove a silver one.

Here is my dad taking it out first, a pic I didn't want to post this before, because it has a picture of my father in it.

If I parked my car next to a bright red F430 which has no one in it, you would think I would have paused and taken a better picture of it, not one I'm taking while trying to make it look like I'm texting someone.



What parking lot is going to have TWO F430s and a Maserati other than a ferrari/maserati dealership?

I might have been cornering slower than I thought I was, what with the fact that the car is worth more than my life. But if it makes you happy, you're right.

he has a thread a while ago of a lambo he did this with and a few more pics.

nice write up man. wish i could pull that off....i was talking to a salesman about the new GTR at the local nissan dealer for a while when they had one. we talked for a while, then got into numbers. i hinted that i'd need to drive it before i even concidered spending that kind of money. then the converstion ended. lol. got back in my 8 and left, tail between my legs. haha

We went to Nissan a few weeks ago to see if they had a GTR - they said the only three they got were bought literally half way off the trailer, by passerbys. I told them to give me a call when they got the 2010s in stock, and than drove a 360whp EVO.

He took some poetic license in an entertainingly well written piece. I'm an engineer and I can still deal with that, and perhaps you can as well? I'm just sayin' ...
