Don't let you parents down, they obviously think pretty highly of you. Nice car for sure, but don't be stupid with it.

Nice looking car. Hopefully it comes back just as good.

And all I got for graduation were my student loan balances that needed to be paid.....haha

Straight A's in AP courses all the way through high school were the criteria. My parents were willing to get one for me a year ago because it had been my dream car since they came out in 2000 and it was going out of production. They wanted me in a new car w/ warranty, so that's how I ended up with a 2009.

Yeah, the CE28's were untouched . Only the front bumper and radiator support were damaged.

PM me if you'd like a link to some pics of the F40.

I have four years of kart racing experience so I do know at least a thing or two about car control (not that you can't always learn much more, and I a lot left to learn as do 99% of people on this forum I'm sure). Unfortunately a combination of being tired late at night and failing to notice the outside conditions (both temp and the oily patch of road that I hit) led to the accident.

Anyway I am hoping to do some autocross with the car when I get it back, and I'm most likely going to enjoy the car without further modification for the foreseeable future.

hahah every time i got all A's in high school my parents would pay for me to go eat at mcdonalds lol

i cant believe your pops has an F40, most people are lucky to just see one of those in real life! I have to ask, what other cars are in his collection? Anyway, keep up the good work, most of the people i know that come from wealthy families arent motivated in the least so keep it up man! hopefully the s will be back on the roads soon

He just has the F40 right now, he buys and sells classic Italian cars as a source of income as well as helping others find good condition examples or find a buyer for their own for commission.

I'd just like to say that while karting does a lot for your instincts as a driver, it's not a direct substitute for actual experience behind the wheel of a real car.

Correction, room mates.


Nice car tho, so you're the one that took the "F22C" plate!

I did the same thing in a rainstorm, spun out on the highway at 70 mph. I'm much more careful when driving at the limit now. My car is pretty much stock and I probably don't have the same level of emotional investment that you do. Nevertheless, I still wish it was Gran Turismo and I could just hit the "reset" button. Thanksgiving, give thanks that you weren't driving million dollars F40!

I have your stock suspension. Thx! Sorry to hear about the crash your car looks so good. Make sure you tell them to blend the paint or you'll end up like me with 2 tone ride. F-ing insurance and body shops. Can't trust them.

Tell them over and over.
