Hi folks,

What a weekend...to say the least. 750 miles from NC to CT in a 308 without heat in January is not something to be desired. I froze.

A long story, short...turned-in the 308, drove the Mondial and was shortly on my way....south! What a truly fun car to drive. Cab forward design, great visibility and even fuel injection were welcomed with a warm smile. Oh, and the A/C and heat work!!

I really did love the 308 but what a change the Mondial has been. I just don't see where critics could beat up on a car that is this much fun to drive. I just don't see it. I'll even go so far to say that I would've pursued a Mondial first instead of a 308. Don't get me wrong, I love the 308's. I am just tickled with this automobile.

Forza,

Dane

I did get a response from Dane. He is bummed out that his Ferrari is gone but he just wasn't using it enough to justify keeping it. He has a baby on the way and of course those things put a great constraint on your time. So with the car gone it frees him up both with time and $$.

Quite a mature decision actually. I think in the same situation I would stamp my feet and yell "NO NO NO!! IT'S MINE!!" and then go pout.

Yes, she's gone. Please don't remind me...I vow to have another one before my heart calls it quits... :wink:

The car is certainly at a good home, though! Congratulations, SG!!

Forza,

Dane

P.S. Any thoughts about a Ferrari SUV? i.e. the Porsche Cayenne? :green:

AARRGGGGHHHH
SHAME ON YOU DANE
NO Ferrari SUV
besides even Montezemelo has said as long as he is in control there will never be a Ferrari SUV, that's why they have Maserati.
same with the quatroporte

Besides, i don't really like the Cayenne, i find the Touareg better looking

Dirk,

Yes, I thought I may get some grief over that one!! I am still surprised that Porsche made the leap. I thought that is why they have VW!

Forza,

Dane
