Z28.....very very special. Superb car

I've always had a soft spot for the E39 M5. Do you still have it? I'd love to own one.

Great shot !

It must be quite a feeling to drive your grandfathers car ! Cherish it until time to pass it down to yours.

Sold my F430 a few months ago, and wound up replacing it with a basket case 1990 Range Rover classic
Yes my friends and family all think I'm nuts.

Was awesome checking the box and enjoying a Ferrari for a couple of years. But in the end I just hardly ever drove it. Missed having something I wasn't afraid of tinkering around with.

So far I'm loving turning wrenches on it over the weekends and making it fully operational again. Have the A/C blowing cold now, and addressed some other minor gremlins. Only project left is getting the ABS operational.

Really have a soft spot for these old boxy Land Rovers. Grew up with them in my family back in the 80's. Really cool looking truck, and surprisingly fun to sit behind the wheel of one.

Good luck on your search, there are so many options and variations you get to choose from, the F12 is incredibly special, just make sure when you find one, have the dealer install the exhaust valve controller from Capristo. You can leave the valves open all the time, it is pure ecstasy. And don't forget to start a thread of the new car when you find one.
Rossa with cuoio, shields...the list can go on and on. Looking for a newer one to get the free maintenance and within my budget. I'm probably screwed. haha.

Personally think the 812 is one of the more beautiful modern Ferrari's with all the updated technology. Can't go wrong there!

Wow, I think we would get along quite well. Love your taste in cars and color choices. Curious to know how you ended up with 3 different Terminators? I regret not buying a competition orange one a few years ago when I had the chance.

I fell in love with the Terminator after I first had exposure to them. They have grown to have a cult like following. The Competition Orange convertible is he unicorn with only 72 being produced. I truly feel they will be collector cars down the road as they were the first high production American muscle car to be factory supercharged, leading the way for the current GT500, ZR1, etc.
