Well...
I'm back from a lovely trip.
Was great.
Visited the Ferrari facilities, wasn't able to see Lambo since I bought a new toy (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
Will show pix soon.
Now... it's getting late for me, since I just got in today... will show pix tomorrow or something like that.

OK,

Here is how/what happened.
As we were looking the different models @ the Ferrari facility in Maranello, ITALY, my eyes were on the Enzo....
What a beautiful machinery:

But a bit too pricey...




close by, wife wanted the following one:

Nice... but also a bit too pricey... I love it too !!!




So, I was thinking about a dedicated track car and was looking at some available models based on racecars... YIKES !!!, even pricier:

So decided to look at more reasonable priced ones and decided to look @ the 360 Modena, since we had seen a few on the street and my wife would notice it and say she loved it... More than the 550Maranello or other models we kept seeing passing by on those streets, as well as some Maserati's as well.

Anyways, in the end, I found a red/yellow 360 Modena, with the track painting scheme the Ferrari uses on some series... forgot the name.
Anyways, here is a picture of the car I could afford.
