Default Ferrari 360 & Corvett C5

it's not a winning story so ~ if you guys are looking winning story~ press alt + F4 ! ^_^~

i was on my way to home from Ellicott City... and

i saw Ferrari 360 silver ~ blasting by me ~~

i had top down and i heard beautiful engine note passing me by~~
and of course~ i couldn't let it go ~
so ~ i chased him down~~
but i was suprised my 280 can keep up with it~

blast for less than mile and we hit the traffic and

we start to rev our engines ~~right next to each other~ gosh ~ it was so loud that we got so much attention from highway~
it was amazing exerience ~~ never came that close to race ferrari ~~ and hear the engine note~

and another day ~ i race C5 ~ looked little tuned
we floored it about same time but ~ he was walking away~~ i wish i had little more power to keep up ~~ but ~~ it was fun and i just want to share it with you guys~~

Try the C5 with a SLK55 and you will be the one pulling away.

Ferrari's sound amazing. We were passed by an F430 convertible on the way to Short Hills mall (NJ) last week. It was beautiful, super clean, triple black.

Didn't try to keep up, the road is way too bumpy.

if it wasn't the SOHC ~ i would consider trading in within few years~
but ~ SOHC the only thing holds me back~

i know it's powerful and has good economy~ for that power but ~ DOHC sounds so much better~
