Dec 09 - 3 Ferraris having fun!

[sameerrao]

I took Sophia to meet some friends today - Lonnie has a mint 328 with ridiculously low mileage. The car looks real new. My other friend Alberto has a 1990 348 - its the one with the red bottom.

We spent some time shooting the breeze, snapping some pics and then took a short drive. An enjoyable afternoon!

Some panning shots - Lonnie took out my car first and then his 328 afterwards. It was nice to listen to the engine from a spectator's standpoint for a change. And I wasn't exaggerating - the 348 sounds superb - way better than a 328. My friends 348 has a tubi - it sounds even better.

Car to car shots - the Ferrari vibrates too much to take decent shots while driving.

Bastard, i say! :D

[sentra_dude]

Sweet pictures! Must be nice... :D 8)

[ARMAN]

Now there are some special type of threads as this one for example we should ban if there are NO vids in it! :mrgreen: I wanna see/hear it all too!!! :P :wink:
348 does look much better when you see it side by side with 328, and the black lips looks much better that the painted ones :P

Zman - I do the Ferrari sounds all the time in the shower - :lol:. I guess my neighbors must be thoroughly entertained. :lol:

Alex - My brother is coming next weekend. I will try to him to take some clips. I am totally clueless about video cams - I must have taken about 5 minutes of video ever since I bought the damn thing 6 years back :roll:

Sentra - it is definitely NICE!!!!

[callen]

looks like a great day! congrats on the 348 im sure it should open the door to experience more supercars at various owner events 8)

Dani, I am going keep posting the picture of the rear as is - I think a year from now - you are going to change your mind about the grill :D

I think the clear glass cover is a huge hit with the Ferrari owners - everyone wants to knwo where they can get one. I wish I new where the previous owner got it from.

Oh... It must be good owning a Ferrari :D

[Wutputt]

Second day out last weekend with the 348, you're really enjoying her, don't you? Cool, I didn't notice the glass engine cover before. Neat feature! Must be cool to go on these drives with fellow F-friends.

But as Arman said: we need some vids to enjoy the sound of these 3 ladies ;)

[TopGearNL]

Great pics once again!

God you have alot of fun with your 348 Sameer :D !!

I like your 348 better with the black underside!
