    I was VERY underwhelmed with the 488. It was bland on pretty much every level. I wish I had gotten the 458 instead........

    I DRIVE my stuff, so when I was looking for a GT I made sure NOT to buy a time-capsule car with 200 miles or whatever. I never want to be afraid to drive my toys.......

    its 99% done. I'm trying to work out a spot to store it in because at the moment I have storage problems. But my buddy that I'm getting it from might be able to store it for me for 5-6 months till I can work something else out. So I think we will get it done......

    Here's another rat rod that my buddy is trying to sell me. I'm probably going to get it in a few weeks but at the moment I have serious storage problems lol. This is a 28 Model A with a big block. I got him to put baffles in the zoomies since these photos were taken as it was so loud it made...

    I'm with you on the part about not looking at them as investments. I regularly drive most of my toys, and that enjoyment certainly has value. That being said, I do make every effort to buy them at the right price so that if I do decide to sell it later, I dont get clobbered. Sometimes that...

    I certainly drive my toys, but I try to do it within reason. If we had more time then maybe it would be fun for me and my nephew to take a week and just screw off and drive it back at our leisure. But unfortunately we both have commitments that will require a "straight there and straight back"...

    haha. Believe me, its pretty tempting to just fly out and drive it home. But I figure there is no need to put 1,000 garbage miles on it for no reason.....

    Definitely will. I got a quote from Reliable but it will take them 2-3 weeks to pick it up. The other shippers we are talking to seem to only have $100k or so of cargo insurance, which is a problem. If we cant resolve it by Friday, then me and my nephew are going to take my flatbed and go get it...

    Ferrari 488 Spider. I rarely drove it. The only reason I bought it in the first place was so I could get an allocation for an F8 Tributo. Ferrari is like this weird cult where you're not allowed to buy a new one unless you already own one......

    New Velociraptor owner......

    its the age-old "why not?" question. Truthfully, I doubt it does ANYTHING better than a standard Raptor. But thats not the point. I just think its awesome, and had to have it. And its not like most Raptor owners are entering desert races or anything. And fortunately someone else is eating most...

    New Velociraptor owner......

    Thats the one I bought. They ran it through Mecum and it no-saled. I was able to make a ridiculous deal trading one of my Ferraris that I rarely drive. My guess is they made the deal because its an extremely hard sell and they would rather take a haircut on it and move on. Its still there at the...

    My understanding is that Hennessey was going to build a total of 50 of these, but demand just isnt there for the full run. So I heard that they have made somewhere around 20-25 so far, roughly half of which went to Dubai, Russia, Indonesia, and China. I dont know if thats true or not, but its...

    New Velociraptor owner......

    The 2 rear axles are live full time, and the front can be engaged just like a normal 4 x 4. I'm not sure the exact payload and towing, because Hennessey's specs are probably optimistic lol. Its roughly 600 horse, so it should pull a little better than a standard Raptor but probably not a...
