Holy loving poo poo.

I can insure one fully comp - provided I fit a tracker and garage it at night - for $350 per year.

Edit: Jesus Christ, keeping it out on the driveway - in my somewhat chavvy area - would make it $25 cheaper.

Great, I could afford to insure a Ferrari.

But not buy it :saddowns:

I asked about the garage not being the cheapest a few years ago, apparently cars stored in garages have poo poo dropped on them a lot. I'm careful to say my car is in a shared parking area rather than a drive, as it's cheaper again.

I've got a 2nd date this weekend and have been debating whether to drive the 348 or the Charger. I feel like it's too early to reveal the 348, but at the same time, I'm a little embarassed of the Charger.

Drive the 348, tell them it's a Fiero.

Also, get better.

There's an interesting ebook on Amazon called "one year with a Ferrari" or something where the author buys a 355. I forget the dollars per mile in operating costs but IIRC it cost him $80 to take his daughter out to ice cream.

I remember an article about this, he concludes if he'd have leased a new one he'd have driven it twice as far for slightly less per mile.

Yesterday I watched the roadkill episode where they hired an aventador for a day and put it against the sailor Jerry hotrod, only women were interested in the hotrod, men in the lambo. Wrong choice kimbo.
