just a question....
 
Can you drive a 360 modena everyday?? like if i was to buy one as my daily driver i would be an idiot right?? I'm not saying that i'm going to i mean i would love to but i don't have the money. Whats like the most exotic sports car meant to be driven everyday? I'm really making a goal to be sitting in something very flagrant before i turn 21, cause at this point in time all i'm thinking about is "you only live once"...and i would love to see peoples reactions when they see me hop out because, i admit.....i'm a complete -------.... ;)

Re:just a question....
 
you can drive it everyday, but ist going to cost you 10 grand a year to maintain... they start to run like complete ------- after a lil while and they have to be tuned up. and it costs a couple grand to have ferrari tune it

I'm not a yuppie-i'm actually pretty far from it....my parents both make under 40k a year each....my mom drives a 86 toyota camry and a my dad drives a 80something v6 camry wagon. I just find that if i set a rather high goal for a certain point by the time it comes to that point i'm almost always pretty close. Figure if i make it a goal to get a 360 i'm garanteed to end up in, at the very least a used e46 M3. Also i don't really have any expenses other than a cell phone bill and food all you bastards have to pay rent....i'm milking living at my parents for as long as i cannnnnn 8)

Well, a ferrari's ------ oil change is 5 grand. That's why most people make it their "sunday car." And it's got shittty gas mileage. Good luck with whatever you do to get that car. And since I'm the only one apparently supporting you I expect a damn ride in that thing once you get it ;). if you're willing to drive down to southern california. But back to your question, I'd say the best exotic car would be an NSX or a Mercedes S55 AMG

Re:just a question....
 
i saw 3or4 diff amgs yesterday and 1 nsx(for the first time in my town actually) i gotta admit the nsx is amazing it sounds insane too.....

Re:just a question....
 
Ok, I used to work at Hoehn Mercedes in San Diego and the owner of the dealership can get ANY car he wants because he owns Audi, Porsche, Mercedes, Acura, and Honda dealerships. And out of all of that, He chose to have an NSX. Just a little food for thought. Something to Consider since he chose that over Mercedes and Porsches.

Re:just a question....
 
I might end up in some "luxury" car myself. I've seen way to many cops today, way way way too many. the number of cops I've seen today could have been ------ out over a week and it would still be too many.

you'd probably be happier in a less "exotic" car, more of a benz or bmw because they're cheaper to maintain, just judging from what I've read in this thread. mercedes makes semi trucks, I think I might have one imported from germany just so I can say that my mercedes has more torque than yours.

Breaker84 08-22-2004 02:46 AM

Re:just a question....
 
The only reason I wouldn't want an exotic car is because no one would ever want to race me. But ofcourse if I had enough money to afford one, I'd probably have enough to make my honda civic just as fast as anybody's ferrari.

Re:just a question....
 
you got the wrong merceds (whoever said s55) the s55 is a little bitch compared to a CL65.

Breaker84 08-22-2004 03:01 AM

Re:just a question....
 
Oh, atleast I spelled mercedes correctly ;). ;D But yeah, sorry, I didn't hear about the CL65 yet. Well, you can always say ---- them both and get the Maybach instead.

bambooseven 08-22-2004 03:04 AM

Re:just a question....
 
---- a maybach, I want to drive the car, not be driven. BTW maybach only has the cl600 motor cl65 has .5L on a maybach and larger turbos. ;D

Breaker84 08-22-2004 03:05 AM

Re:just a question....
 
so... has anyone tried throwing a kit on their maybach yet? ;D

bambooseven 08-22-2004 03:07 AM

Re:just a question....
 
if you pay for it supposedly they'll build you an M65 AMG maybach. but I gues it'd be a little more then half a million dollars and they'll only do it if you have a few benz already or some bullshit.

Re:just a question....
 
I'm just waiting for my 24" spinners to come in for my maybach, the platinum plating guy takes forever, then I'll get my kit put on there.

Breaker84 08-22-2004 03:14 AM

Re:just a question....
 
ahhh, yes. See, I didn't want to put platinum on my rims because a couple of my friends did that to their maybachs. So I tried to be original and just got the charge pipes and the intercooler complete platinum! Superior cooling compared to aluminum!

Honda16hb 08-22-2004 03:16 AM

Re:just a question....
 
ya? ---- it, I'll just melt them down and throw them away then. you're friends don't have diamond studded 24" spinnder yet, do they?

I think titanium looks better then platinum anyday.

Re:just a question....
 
no not that, but they did get the windows and windshield coated with diamond. Works great on preventing those damn rock chips on the freeways! And it looks beautiful in the sun!!

Re:just a question....
 
bling bling. 3 more posts and you're at 2k, keep whoring it up I'm trying to get to 3600 so I can pretend I'm a 360 modena.

Re:just a question....
 
s-class "guard" edition comes with double paned bulletproof lexan windows. you can even roll them down seperately.

Re:just a question....
 
that would be some funny ---- to see someone roll down their window and still have the window rolled up.
