Showing his age not only with the reference but also with the fading memory: It was Thurston Howell III. Tsk, tsk, tsk. Perhaps Southernstar posted that from his Pewlitt-Hackard computer?

I took it as JD would be # IV? Who knows, I could be wrong though, not the first time.

Anyone else here think JD is having a bit of fun with us LOL! Ya think? I would have believed a 355, maybe even a 360, but I'm not buying this for a minute.

[southernstar]

I am indeed showing my age, Mark, but judging from his driving music selections I have little doubt that JD will know the reference. Regardless, I hope he is having a little fun with us as I would hate to lose JD from this site.

And JD, while based upon your past comments I still think you should buy a used Ferrari in preference to a new 981, I also think that you should hold off on selling the current dangermobile. While Ferraris aren't exactly a dime a dozen, they are still more common than your car. Lets face it, you have personalized your 986 S to the point where is is not only reflective of your individual tastes, it is virtually a one-of-a-kind.

You have already acknowledged that you will take a bath if you sell it right now. While that is undoubtedly correct, I have little doubt that the car's value has already reached its nadir and that over time, the supply of very low-mileage, well-maintained 2000 Boxster S's are going to drop dramatically. It is the first year of the S and with a dual-row bearing, probably the best of the 986's. Period. I think there is every reason to believe that prices will start to go up - expecially for an immaculate, tastefully upgraded example such as yours.

Hey Brad have you seen the price of 944T's lately? And the only thing special about jd's car is the 'I can't drive' low mileage. A body kit, wheels, exhaust and coilovers isn't exactly 'custom' these days.

Give me a high 5, JD:

[woodsman]

at least a Ferrari can pull off yellow!

[coreseller]

Why all the hate from the Canooks?

[Mark_T]

Absolutely no hate! We all love JD but we know what a trickster he can be sometimes, so we're just a wee bit suspicious... ya gotta admit it's a bit of a leap to go from a $20k Porsche to a 1.2 million dollar Ferrari.

Who is it on here that says "pics or it's not true"?

[Mark_T]

He musta got it mixed up with the name of his Boy Scout leader from back in the day.

[kjc2050]

What a farce.

[Mark_T]

I would love to find a good deal on a Mera in nice condition. I'd also settle for a well-done 308 kit on a Feiro. Don't think I'd want a real 308 though - seems to be a maintenance nightmare.

If this happens Porsche will have to have a change in nomenclature to "Danger Blue".

[Mark_T]

Yeah, I sure hope I can return this Wraith...

[Steve Tinker]

WooHoo - its just up JD's street, with its flat 4/5 motor & internal rollbar...
And it will handle the dirt road up to Schloss Danger without a hitch too.
Who wants an Enzo when you can have this dreamboat on your drive !!

[1olddude]

I think this little gem could manage the dirt road to the danger home. It is upgradable in horsepower and you can still feel the wind in your hair like driving the 986 with the top down.

Ferrari is very good
