Did you just take F1 sounds and dub it over your video?

By the way Ronnie, have done anything "fun" to your 528i M Sport yet? I'd like to think it's seen a drop and some wheels by now!

Hard to describe, it's an awesome feeling to be able to finally own an exotic car. There are faster cars that you can buy for $120K+ but driving a Ferrari is an event everytime, it's just different & special.

I did some minor mods, nothing major. I want to drop it but if it snows bad in here, I need the clearance, so I leave it stock height.
My next daily driver definitely will have adjustable air suspension like Porsche Macan or the new C-class.

Congrats on your F car. There is nothing like a Ferrari to get your blood flowing! The Tubi exhaust is the best exhaust in my opinion. When I had my F 360, I had Tubi exhaust and my kids said they could hear me when I drove into the neighborhood. Nothing like that sound! The video clips don't do it justice.

Enjoy it!

Many reason...my kids were small and I took them to school every day, so I didn't drive it as much as I wanted. it was a weekend car, but if you can't enjoy it with your entire family, what is the point? I sold the Ferrari...bought the BMW e63 and then the entire family could enjoy it with me. Not much fun to go for rides without the people you love.

Greetings,

I think the Ferrari kicks ass !! And well done on all items dude !!

regarding other folks and being jelly, meh...it is what it is...and it's all true peeps doing data base development and admin stuff, like the true rock-stars out there (you appear to be one of them) make just sick amounts of coin, as they should too....waaaay back in college I took the SQL7.0 admin course and it was a ball buster, people should be paid lots for doing hard stuff...

Cheers,
Merlin

Got spotted when getting gas + taking off:



Leaving cars & coffee:



It's loud but with windows up, just cruising at highway speed, it's quiet and NO droning:

wow your car is amazing!!! it literally sounds like the FIA WEC ferraris /ALMS ferraris I saw last year in austin!


Congrats! hows the maintenance on these? My dads thinking about getting an 360 modena or F430, but he's worried about the maintenance. He doesn't drive too much (2k a year maybe). Modenas are pretty cheap now. Get one for 80k and save 20k for maintenance.

I had Tubi exhaust also before my current setup, but it's the GTC version (louder).

Maintenance is not bad, around $1500/year for all fluids service.
