Ok... Ferrari it is!

Edit: now I just gotta arrange for someone to come and pick the car up ..

Good choice my man!

 

[Theace37]

I sure hope so!

I sure do love the sound it makes, soo sexy!




Also im going to have the dealer give it new paint, as it hasent been done in +10 years.

The car is currently Rosso corsa, im thinking I should leave it thay color....


Yez?

 

[CodeRedR51]

Original color, yes.

Trans + Paint from a Ferrari Dealer.

$$$$$$$$$

 

[nick09]

I think you should price hunt around for a paint job. That can get pricey and no one really likes to spend extra if possible.

 

[nealcropper]

I think Midnight Purple II.

Haha nope, only joking, defiantly Rosso corsa.

 

[Theace37]

Yes but everything on the car has been done by the same Ferrari dealer so I think so aftermarket shop is out of the question

2x Carhartt Men's Twill Work Pants - $53.98:

I asked this as my birthday gift from my parents as I only have one pair of khakis for my contract work and I'm starting to wear out the knees in the pants.

[Solid Lifters]

Sick and tired of my old rechargeable AA batteries, I went out and got this...

Sanyo Eneloop Rechargeable Battery Pack

And a 4 pack of Sanyo XX rechargeable AA for my digital camera and Fenix LD22.

 

[McLaren]

Everything on the car has been done at the ferrari dealer and since the car is still in my dads name im tachnically the first owner....

And yes, I can affford it but it would cut my spending down on other things...

Technically, no you're not. You're the 2nd owner the moment your name enters as the Primary instead of your father's.

And I'll be the first to say I find this extremely far fetched that your first car is '78 Ferrari 308 GTS that you picked up for $22K, & you can not only afford to have the transmission completely replaced, but have the car repainted by Ferrari? You're talking in excess of $8-10,000 in parts & labor and you can afford this being in high school? I'll put money your dad is the one covering the costs since he also gave you such a good deal on it for a car that fetches $30K easily unless this car is pushing pass 50,000 miles, in which case, you've bought yourself a money pit.

On a related note, you also told us the Ferrari was gone 3 months.

Pics of the Gallardo, 308, cls and bmw came.

The Ferrari is gone but I have some older pics I can put up.

I never said I could het pics of the other lambo because he doesn't have it yet

 

[Crash]

Very nice! Is that a non-circulating special issue coin, or was that also issued for general circulation?

*Ferrari*

I agree with McLaren.

You state just 3 months ago that you were 15, so at most, you are 16 now. Yet you claim to be able to afford the Ferrari, along with a complete transmission replacement and a new paint job. I find that to be quite far fetched. If anything your father would be covering the cost.

It looks like you've posted in the past that your father owns/owned a bunch of supercars, and pictures have been requested, yet I do not see any pictures to back that claim up. You also posted that the Ferrari 308 GTS that you claim to now own is gone, as McLaren pointed out, so which is it?

Also, I have referred you and your posts to this thread:

Oh, oh, oh, I'm making a Ludicrous Claim!

Please take the requested photos and post them back on GTPlanet.

Oh dear. I must admit I'm always suspicious when no pics turn up at the start of anything like this. If it was me, I'd want to get as many pics up as I could straight away, regardless whether it's a runner or not.

Tend to find these things don't end well. If it's true, then please post some evidence and prove us doubters wrong. But I have a feeling that any embarrassment we might feel for calling you out would be a fraction of that you'd have to deal with if you're not being honest.

Also

You will not knowingly post any material that is false, misleading, or inaccurate.

So I would advise you to take care with your next few posts. 💡

non circular one,thought it would go good with my bathurst models.

 

[salanos]

Ehhhh... Not so sure it would be worthwhile considering I can't even use half the DLC because my derpy Xbox hasn't got a network connection since its place in the house puts it out of range of a g-band adaptor and its way too far to run an ethernet cable...

 

[axletramp]

Have you tried some powerline ethernet adapters which turn your home wiring into a network? That way you can have an ethernet port and/or Wifi in any room with a plug socket. I believe TP-Link and Netgear do some.

There was two, if you go back. The 308 and a 16m


And yes, I just covered the 22k cost of the car. Initail servace will be payed by him.

Lol... ok well ill post a picture then we can all move on with our lives.

 

[W3H5]

I think a big problem is that many people lie about having nice cars when they don't, and because of that, when people do have nice cars which are expensive, nobody seems to believe it.

 

[Theace37]

^totally agree, and I can see it from someone leses point of view.

 

[F1 fan]

Well I just picked up a copy of dishonored for ps3. I was a little worried incase it didn't at least have english subtitles but it has english audio and menus. The latter of which I expected due to the system language.

 

[Nuschel01]

I had the story with the Ferrari in another board, somebody told he had a F355 but he never had any pictures. Then he said he sold it due to high repairing costs. He told us he had never done any photos of the car because "he wasn't somebody who shows off his car and so he never took any photos of it". WEIRD oO

I didn't bought many things in the latest day, only new headphones

 

[nealcropper]

@theace where are these pics pal? I really want to see them. I hope you ain't yanking us pal. I hate to be disappointed.

 

[Patrick]

Check Ludicrous Claims thread. That's where pics will be.

 

[Theace37]

Traded in some old 360 titles and bought a second Xbox play and charge kit (since my brother stole the other one), along with 2100 MS points.

I still don't have much cash for any new games though.
