Sorry, I've been off the site for a few days and have missed this thread. Congratulations JD! Extremely happy for you and like so many others, I think you made a very wise choice. We all know how much you have lusted after a Ferrari and it sounds as if you have made a very wise choice. Maintained to the level that I am sure you will, it will likely appreciate over time and in the interim, it makes for an incredible ride and the perfect dangermobile!

While I am saddened at the prospect of losing of losing your imput, incite and humor and while this site will never be the same, I wish you well. Forza Ferrari!

Brad

PS Wow JD, just checked out a couple of listings. No wonder one was given to the Vatican as a gift - at the prices an Enzo commands even they would have trouble affording one! If you can pull this off I think we now know the true identity of Johnny Danger - Thurston Powell IV! If not, I suspect we have been the subject of another very effective JD ruse and the rumors of your demise on this site are a bit premature. You do keep this site alive, JD!

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.

I got the results of the PPI on the Enzo today. Unfortunately, the tech at Fungula Motor Sports discovered a low windshield washer fluid reading during a durametric test, along with some light dust on spark plug wire #11. According to them, this can result in immediate engine failure. So my plans to buy the Enzo are out.

I was thinking more along the lines of what fungula grows in!

Despite the disappointing outcome of today's PPI results, I have a new vehicle in mind to help me look beyond the Enzo. The seller says it once belonged to Gavin McLeod of the 'Love Boat' fame.
