please be so kind as to inform the DMV and my insurance company of your vote, maybe they will stop insuring the car as one.
if rarity of sightings = exotic i guess a Ford Edsel is an exotic also, don't see many of them around here.

I'm not sure I understand to which "twins" you are referring? Whoever they are, that's a helluv an inventory they've got. Curiously absent is the S, though. 
I think it's badass that some people own such a wide variety of cars. Luxury pimp-mobile to balls-out sports cars.
Seeing Keith's 360 popped a question into my head - when you buy a new Ferrari, is there a "break-in" period on that too? I would think that would be an even tougher couple hundred miles. I'd wanna take that baby right to the track and hot lap the

they recommend taking it easy for the first 800-1000 miles to let everything work in and get used to the car before getting down to business. for some people, that could take a couple years, for me, uhm, little more than the 1st weekend.... drove it down to Richmond for one of w1ngmans drives, shortly after that to Tn for the dragon, then a weekend at summit point followed by FC '03. needless to say, well past the breakin period and looking forward to good road conditions and another track weekend in april.

Clayman, its worth reading at least the first two pages of the thread that I linked, great laugh.
Story goes that this guy posted pics of him and his brother with their 350Z and G35 respectively, and the background was a pimp palace's garage with the listed cars that they claimed as their stable. By the 2nd page of the thread a friend of the guy that really owned the stable chimed in and blew him out making for a humiliating reality check for the loser. Truly priceless
