There were a couple Vectors that I could have bought last year for maybe 100K for the pair.

I don't know why Apple does the crap they do. I had to go buy new slideshow software for the features because the stuff we've used for years wasn't visible by Apple products. I'm not chasing that anymore, if they keep changing what their stuff can do I'm not going to spend money trying to keep up with it.

The new upgrade appears to have dumbed-down the phone.....IMO, to make the next one more desirable. That's how they roll......

Seen this video a little while ago. F40 has and always will be my Halo car even if its oldschool now. And yes I had a poster of it and a Vector on my wall as a kid.

I've been blessed with the opportunity to drive both these cars on several occasions (at work) and the F40 is by far one of the best & scariest drives ever - unless you are a pro driver like Chris Harris when the boost hits you had better be pointed straight because it hits SO hard, it's an intense experience - the F50 is great, the V12 pulls for days but nothing like the rush from the F40 - but you can't beat technology these cars can't keep up with an F12, 458 or even an FF

what do you do? Ferrari Tech?


His enthusiasm is infectious! To me, they both are magnificent cars. I think the F50 is gorgeous. I love how he says the F40 is like a kit car next to it. I always saw the F40 as a race car that was on the street. I would expect a race car to not have too much emphasis on fit and finish of the parts that don't make it go. So awesome to watch him drift the F40 out of those turn. Wow!
