Don't be that guy /o/

>>16579279
I'm not sure why.
It's not like it's the first time I've posted about the car. There was a whole thread about it a couple months back.

>>16579504
Did you ever take a pic with focaccia on fender?

>>16579504
Okay, fair enough. But this means I get to ask "The Ferrari Question."

What do you do for a living?

>>16579553
I'm retired.
Otherwise I never would've bought one.

>>16579560

Ok

>>16579548
No, but I took a timestamped one from the driver's seat.

>>16579604
It's so exhausting to say you have a nice car here I just don't even bother anymore.

>>16579560
Retired from what?

>>16579643
nailing ur mum

>>16579668
Dad?

>>16579716
i told you to get off the fuckin computer son, you're going to rot your eyes out

>>16579731
It didn't happen to you so it's not happening to me. We have the same genetics dad

>>16579643
Nothing exciting.
I was part of a startup that got bought out. Can't really say more.

>>16579934
>Can't really say more.
This just makes me more interested

Okay well you have all the knowledge now, how do I get rich?

>>16578992

That car is ugly as fuck and slow as dog shit. It's only worth a lot of money because muh heritage. You probably beat it in your civic.

I couldn't really say.
It's not like I knew the buyout would happen going in. I didn't even think the other guys involved were that smart.

I don't get out that way much, unless I'm headed to the coastal roads in Malibu. I mainly stick to the hills around Mulholland.

>>16580580
Not the other anon but I live near Button Willow if you ever make it down there.

I mean, some faggot in an E-Type almost t-boned me once.

I'm actually closer to Calabasas than TO I think. But hey if you're down to cruise down Malibu Canyon rd some time, then I am too. Cars and programming when?

>tfw Topanga Canyon blvd was still closed today

>>16580626
pm me when you guys hit Topanga I'd like to go. I am from the 818 so pretty close

>>16580597
Is that near Willow Springs?
I was thinking of taking it up there to track it at some point.

>>16580626
>Malibu Canyon
Can't remember the setup. Is it mostly 4 lane, like Kanan, or 2 like Las Virgenes?

>Topanga Canyon blvd was still closed today
Saw this on the map before I went out today. Rock/mudslides?

They can be good, but it really sucks when you get morons who want to drive 15 and look at the scenery, but won't pull over.

Supposedly they're crawling with Chippers.

Oh I see. In all the times I've been on the canyon roads I've only seen a patrol car once or twice if I try to recall.

Would a radar detector work assuming they're after a turn/big ass hill? I've been meaning to get one.

I blew up the engine 4 days after getting a car so I've been driving pretty chill since I got that fixed anyway.

>>16580962
radar (and cell signal) has a hard time working in the canyons since all the mountains and shit

>>16580962
>I've been meaning to get one.
Lol.
Yeah, I've been thinking of that myself, considering.

Yeah, especially since driving over 100mph is two points in Cali.

You have one of these?

>>16581062
I moved to Cali from Europe two months ago, and as a resident alien you're allowed to drive using your international license up until 3 months after arrival.

So yeah I'll have to get a Cali license this February unfortunately.

>>16581077
The guy across the street from me pulled a stunt like this.
He had a European license and a BMW with Euro plates, which he never changed. Anytime he got pulled over, he just started speaking to the cop in German.

>>16579166
>entirely ironically
entirely?
that's a lot of irony, I usually go for just half.

>>16581110
How easy it is to pull that shit off with US cops? I did similar stuff when travelling central Asia with Austrian plates, I don't have a license at all, so any time I was pulled over, we jumped out of the car, I pointed at the passenger and we spoke random shit in random languages. Worked 100%

>>16582604
He did it a while back.
My guess is that, like most similar shit, it works less and less well over time.
I had a revoked driver's license in one state, exchanged it in another state for a perfectly legit one. By the time I submitted that one in a third state, though, they had caught up and nailed me for the stuff in the first one.

>>16582772
Being a foreigner is more fun. Managed to convince the border guard in a neighboring country that my license has been lost in a car fire and evade punishment once.

>>16582858
I'm still trying to figure out who was driving the SWB, would've liked to meet him.
Can't be many people who own cars that fucking expensive.

>>16582862
Why tf would you go to drive to mexico, roads are shit

>>16583959
I didn't go there to drive, I went there to get drunk and pick up 20 year old girls from San Diego.

Yeah, $68K is soooooo out of reach.

68k isn't it of reach, the mandatory maintenance

>>16588074
>mandatory maintenance is
Really.
Op here. Given that maintenance for my 360 is already pricey, do you think a v12's is somehow bank breaking?

>>16591165
The money pit part of a 456 isn't the engine, it's the rear suspension, bodywork, interior parts, and anything else unique to the car, there are very few 456s compared to 360s. If you have a problem with the headlight, seat adjuster mechanism, etc. you are going to be out a lot of money for parts, those things add up.

>>16591165
what you have to realize is people on /o/ are so poor that they literally cannot afford the extra spark plugs

>>16591203
Fair enough, but my point is that when buying a car you figure these things in (or should, anyway). I knew about crazy Ferrari maintenance costs going in, if I hadn't, I would've bought something even more expensive.
Let's say that $68K 456 costs another $50K in maintenance for 5-10 years. That's $118K, still easily within the range of what I'll spend (+ purchase) on the 360 over the same time period.
It's just a question of preference.

Unfortunately so, there were some rumors about it going in production some time soon but you know how it goes with concept cars.

Have another, even better looking, one.
