New Addition on the way

[RavenFan_94]

Well after about a year of being Viperless, I am the process of picking up a new Copperhead which should be here in about a week. Hopefully the deal will be finalized tomorrow. I couldn't be more geeked up for it!

During the interim, I bougt this little number. I was never a fan of FCars due to the ridiculous costs of owning them. Of course they say that life is no dress rehersal.

Spring come quickly.

Ferrari, back to Viper. why the change of heart?
I've thought about a Ferrari one day myself. Do tell

 

[peakcompletions]

I too am hoping to get a Ferrari someday...

congrats on the new ride! Looks like your boat can move to!

Awesome looking 355! I drove a 98' black 355 Spider when I was in Panama City Beach a couple years ago. It was one nice car! I've got one question though....how good does it tow your boat?

 

[RavenFan_94]

I just got the F355 so and no plans to get rid of it. I'm really excited about the Copperhead. This will be my third snake and of all the cars I have had the good fortune of owning, nothing compares to the SRT. Thanks for the great comments.

Jody, what type of wheels are on the Ferrari? I forgot to ask in my last post

The wheels are HRE 847 R's that were painted. The picture doesn't really due the wheel color justice. The prior owner added a tubi, cats and headers and she is a screamer.

355- best looking/cleanest design late model Ferrari. Great wheels! I came sooooo close to buying this car, but choose the Viper instead.

Congrats!

Very nice. Tell us about the boat with a few pics, looks nice.

 

[RavenFan_94]

I wish that the boat was mine. My 30ft. Chaparral looks like a bath tub compared to that Cigarette.

I keep the boat in the Marina near the spot for the MD/VA crab feast.

I agree. I've been to several Ferrari events just to check out the rides, and the 355 still looks better than the 360 and 430. AND SOUNDS BETTER, especially with that tubi. Needless to say, it also looks better than the 348, 328 and 308. I'm too frugal to own one though, as I get p*ssed at any maintenance bill over $100 -

Thanks guys. Removing the engine every 3 years for a belt service is insanity. I almost think that it is worth it as they just nailed every aspect of this car.

Really hits home about how good the SRT is. I'm not a racer so the oil pan issue doesn't bother me. Save the pan, the SRT is bullet proof.

While I'm not crazy about the cost of ownership of the F355, this car just hits my soft spot. I get goose bumps listening to it at high RPM.

Very nice taste in rides. Congrats.

Nice choice on the 355. I remember seeing that car on F-Chat's Ferrari ads.

 

[RavenFan_94]

Yep Matt, that is the same car. I snatched it up quickly. The car is modded and well sorted out.

 

[RainMaker]

Nice Ferrari, love that color!

 

[Ron Hickey]

Welcome back to the Viper fold, Jody! The Copperhead is an excellent choice. Hope to see you at an event soon.

Thanks Ron, it is great to be back!!! I need to renew my VCA membership and look forward to seeing the bunch. Come on sunshine!
