Default Dec 09 - 3 Ferraris having fun!

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!

Static shots




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.

Now there are some special type of threads as this one for example we should ban if there are NO vids in it! I wanna see/hear it all too!!!
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

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

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!!!!

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

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.
