Ferrari Enzo sighting!

[Ben]

Besides working at the golf course, I also work for a real estate company in Beverly Hills in the mornings. After leaving this afternoon to make my commute to the course, I was driving down Olympic Blvd. and spotted this thing coming.




The thing rolled bye with one hell of a rumble!

On top of that I saw two Austin Martins. People have some serious money around those parts!

I've always wondered what my "rich car" would be: when I become obscenely rich, what kind of car would I buy?

Everyone in south Florida, for example, had Jaguars and Porsches. I'd have to go with an Aston Martin or something a little less popular. I don't want to be like everyone else.

Of course, whether I'd actually be able to make myself drive it anywhere is another story...

For my personal driving pleasure, I'd probably get a Lexus SC (two door hardtop convertible), but for having other people drive me around, the Maybach . *drool*

but for having other people drive me around, the

Saw one of those on the street a few months back.

Today saw a Lamborgini Murcielago (or however you spell it) and one of those massive new Rolls Royce beasts. As far as what car I'd drive if funds were unlimited, my list is larger than the day is long. Don't even get me started.

I would want one of these .

[Rafcin]

no doubt for me - 911 RS4 Turbo. "Only" $140K.
There was a show on the speedvision - ferrari, lamborghini, viper, amg and porsche. Viper was the fastest, ferrari had the best accel, but ONLY one car was able to make the oval track @140mph without slowing down in the turns. Guess which one ;)

Porsches are for girly men with small you-know-whats! Every wanker in south Florida has a freakin' Porsche. And plenty of women.

[gas_can]

My dream car, BMW M5 any generation. I love sport sedans!

There are Porsche's and there is 911 R4 Turbo. If you talk about Boxters It's like comparing Dodge Breeze to a Viper

[Rafcin]

My dream car,

If you like M5 you'd like this one better :

BMW M6

[pahonix]

I would want

I have officially been trumped.

Incidentally, I meant that plenty of women have Porsches, not that girly men with small you-know-whats have plenty of women. Sorry. Grammar police sentenced me to 30 minutes reading the style manual of my choice.

If you like M5 you'd like this one better :

Very, very nice. I've been hoping that they're going to be coming into production with them in the US but news has been few and far between. Mercedes has been hoing the E55 all around, I've never seen so many in my life, hopefully bmw won't make the same production mistakes as mercedes.

[Ben]

So much Porsche hate there iacas! And speaking of Porsches I saw the sweetest setup yesterday driving to the course. Porsche Cayenne trailering his raced out 80's 911 coupe. He had a bunch of spare racing wheels and everything. Man that was nice!

M6 would be pretty sweet too!

[Rafcin]

...Mercedes has been hoing the E55 all around, I've never seen so many in my life, hopefully bmw won't make the same production mistakes as mercedes.

I don't think we have to worry about that

I'm expecting the price tag of about 140K, that should limit them drastically. You can get a lot of different cars for that money... V10 is sweet. of course 500+ HP and 250+ mph aren't bad either

Getting coffee this morning. I came out and a Ferrari Enzo was parked right behind me. A gentleman about 10 to 20 years older than me got out. Then he scooted around the car and let a major smoke show out of the passenger side. I assume that was his daughter... or granddaughter... right? …. right?

With Ferrari money, I doubt it, especially if he opened the door for her to get out.

They're not that rare to spot by me, but there's also a dealership not too far from my house.

My comment was a little tongue and cheek. I'm sure it was NOT his Granddaughter.... maybe his Granddaughter's best friend???

They say money can't buy happiness. But it sure looks like you rent it.
