Talking

Reminds me of an F40 I saw in Marin County a few years ago. Inside was dirty and grimy. Must have been a half-dozen fast food bags on the passenger-side floor!

To each, their own I guess.

Why? Should the car be sealed in some kind of bubble not to be touched? He obviously isn't too conerned with what other people think and is enjoying his car. Props to him for using his car whatever way he chooses, even if it's to get him to the park as quickly as possible to ride his mountain bike.

A local owner of this furniture dynasty here in Houston has a 512M and an F-40 both parked in the middle of the store. They each have tons of hand prints and even worse, scrapes from people w/ strollers and stuff walking by.

I'd way rather see one get used than just set out like these two cars are.

I applaud the guy for using the car for what it was meant to be used for... driving. I can't stand seeing cars like that just sit and dry rot away...

Guy in my hometown in central California drives his black Enzo Ferrari daily to his business - parks it right out front between all the pick-up trucks . Before that, his daily driver was an F50 ( not F150 !) . Hooray for him.

When you reach a point in your life where you drive F40s as your daily drivers you become a certified balla.

My thoughts exactly. You can still keep a clean car and transport bikes on the roof. I already have a nice yakima king cobra setup waiting to transport my santa cruz heckler on the s4.
