Hi ChuckJ,

How's yours? HK is so tiny, I missed I-35.

Where is Hong Kong is that parking lot? Its all nice cars parked there.

It is my apartment's parking lot.
There are many Ferrari, Lambo, Aston Martin, Bentley, Maserati, R8, 1 Maybach and 2 GT-R. My friend usually joking that they can check them all at one place better than go to the dealers one by one.

Congrats on finally getting the car. Looks great. And I don't mean to dampen the mood but at your prices I could buy a brand new 458 in my neck of the woods. I feel your pain, now let me try and save up for that ferrari.

Enjoy the car!

I also have a Toyota Alphard and it costs around USD100K. Can you image that paying USD100K for a Toyota MPV

The 458 costs around half million here, let us try and save for the ferrari together

Yeah but HK seems to have its act together the tax collected seems to be well spent. My one visit there gave the impression that it is a well managed city.
I am now considering a Ferrari only because the 2012s offer a 7 yr service plan, but the warranty is just 3 yrs and not sure I would want to keep a Ferrari out of warranty.
