Nice pictures.

Don't care how awesome any FRS is though. I'd take the California. Even if only to sell it and then buy ten FRSes.

I have a picture at home of a Ferrari 599 GTB parked next to a first gen Lotus Elan; it's almost sickening how big sports cars have gotten over the years.

thats awesome, he clearly parked next to you on purpose haha, really like the way they look next to each other. i think i'd still prefer the white one, i wouldn't feel guilty beating on it a little haha
i've had the privelege of driving the california tho and it was all i dreamt about for weeks after. the twins don't have that ferrari 'wow' factor, but they both have the "i'm going to sleep now, so i can wake up and go driving sooner" feel

The funny thing is, I bet more people know that the ferrari is a ferrari than people who know the twins are made by Subaru and Scion

Just the other day I was driving home from a show, and two older guys in a new Tahoe caught up with me and asked me to roll down my window. He was like, "who makes that? And what is it!"

lol on the highway! doing like 60 mph!
