Weasel1984 ◊ 2010-05-14 22:08	And how many of them have you driven?
Ingo ◊ 2010-05-14 22:26	leoz wrote Am I the only one on this site who thinks Ferraris are overrated??? No. My Japanese friend Hiroshi told me, that Ferrari's are real shitty cars, with a quality worse than Fiat. So a real impudence to demand so much money for not usable junk. A friend of Hiroshi owns a Testarossa. He was allowed to drive it sometimes. One time he had damaged the plastic-stuff around, when he passed a Toll-station on the highway. Later he had a breakdown - when it's raining, the water is leaking inside, a) inside the passenger's room, dropping on your head and b) leaking inside the engine-space, dropping inside the ignition-system. He agreed, when I told him "Your experiences sounds similar like that ones of a colleague, with his fucking 1990' Fiat Uno" When I've visited Hiroshi in 2003, we've also visited the Matsuda Collection ( http://www.ferrariownersclub.co.uk/happenings/2004/august/matsuda/text.asp ) I must admit, that it was boring for me. Really boring. Except the fact, that I personally never had any feelings or connections to Ferrari, the museum was nothing for your heart. Yes, it may sounds strange, but it has an impression of sterility. Nowhere you can feel any "heart's blood" of the owner. It's just a big amount of high priced cars. And collections of other expensive things, like old fuel pumps and chronometers, too - all toys for people with very much money, but without a reflected feeling for artefacts and historical relations. Just a mountain of expensive industrial products. Boring and not impressive. Even the objects are less valuable, collections like that ones: http://www.automuseum-busch.de/index-en.htm http://www.brooklandsmuseum.com/ even that small one: http://www.motorradmuseum-heinz-luthringshauser.com/e-museum.htm which I've visited in the past, were much more interesting, at least really fascinating. There you can see, that someone has collected with heart and knowledge - not only with money. -- Last edit: 2010-05-14 22:28:20
G-MANN ◊ 2010-05-15 15:42	What attracts people to Ferraris? The famous racing heritage, image, looks and speed, they've always been considered to be at the top of their class (although there's always Porsche, Lamborghini and others) and they are solely dedicated to making sports cars, they don't make saloons, 4x4s, estates or affordable cars like Nissan or Toyota does. As a brand Ferrari just has this unique image, like the way Rolls-Royce does. leoz wrote Well JEREMY CLARKSON IS NOT THE GURU OF CARS!!! I used to think he was when I was younger Of course at the end of the day what he says is just an opinion, but I think still counts for more than mine or the average person's because we haven't driven what he's driven. Although at times he does say some daft things and his car opinions can change like the wind. In fact I heard him say on a recent Top Gear that Ferraris from the last 10 years haven't been that beautiful or different looking. -- Last edit: 2010-05-15 15:54:11

Ingo ◊ 2010-05-15 18:27	G-MANN wrote And can you really expect a high performance sports car to be as reliable as an everyday car? Yes. To be a high performance -so very expensive- car is no excuse for being unreliable. High Tech doesn't (should not, IMHO) exclude reliability. It's realy audacious by Ferrari and other expensive "high performance"-manufactures, to offer cars in such shitty quality to their customers. This is really impudent, as you can see, that others can do it much better. Look at Porsche: it's no problem to run down with at least all Porsche's of all model-years some hundreds-of-thousands of all-day-kilometers around the whole year at every weather. Or what's up with the High-End-versions of some Mercedes-models? Or AMG-Benzes? Or M-BMW's? Maybe my opinion is not identical with that of others, but for me any car of any age and for any price has to have one predicate, that I accept it: reliability.

DynaMike ◊ 2010-05-15 19:42	As you know I'm no Ferrari fan at all (I prefer French extravagance), but I'd say cars can have other qualities than the boring German perfection...
G-MANN ◊ 2010-05-15 20:43	Well no Ingo because a Ferrari engine is designed to get as much power and acceleration possible, it's not like some ordinary car which is primarily designed for everyday driving. Yes, nowadays there's more fast cars around that are souped-up versions of mass-market, coupes/softops and hatchbacks (but a BMW M5 or a Mercedes SL65 AMG still can't beat a Ferrari F430 or 599) but if we're talking about an 80s Testarossa, there were much fewer cars that were in its league back then. Yes, there's Porsches but I still think Ferraris have something that they don't. You don't agree then choose a Porsche instead! It's not fair to say Ferraris have just this glamourous image and nothing else. Yes, it would be annoying to buy such an expensive new car that wasn't very well-made or kept breaking down but are you sure this Testarossa didn't just have the wear and tear of 20-odd years? -- Last edit: 2010-05-15 20:49:02
sixcyl ◊ 2010-05-15 21:25	By the way, this Ferrari Enzo is awful ... IMHO
G-MANN ◊ 2010-05-15 21:31	It's not beautiful but it's very fast which is what it was designed be -- Last edit: 2010-05-15 21:33:13
Ingo ◊ 2010-05-16 11:35	DynaMike wrote I'd say cars can have other qualities than the boring German perfection... I'm not going so far to demand "German perfection" - just working technic would be fine, not more.
Weasel1984 ◊ 2010-05-16 18:09	leoz wrote It's just that everybody I have ever met mentions a Ferrari when I bring up the subject of favorite cars... leoz wrote And everyone respondes buy saying "Jeremy Clarkson likes them - they must be good!" This can be annoying, you are right, but it referrs to all people, who describe their selfs as car lovers, but their interest is limited only to supercars (or expensive cars in general) and contempt of everything else. I agree a bit with G-MANN. Porsche I find a different type of car than Ferrari. In fact it is meant to be also an everyday use car (well the 911), and Ferrari is rather an exclusive gadget, especially such one like Enzo. -- Last edit: 2010-05-16 18:14:46
antp ◊ 2010-06-10 17:38	When I first saw this scene: I thought "wtf!? he has three feet?" - I had to go back and pause to see that it was just a reflection -- Last edit: 2010-06-11 11:56:58
Skid ◊ 2010-06-11 18:47	leoz wrote Am I the only one on this site who thinks Ferraris are overrated??? Agreed. My problem with Ferrari is how they send out their team of lawyers to harass any artist who paints a picture of one of their cars, or any 3D modeler who makes a non-commercial Ferrari add-on for a racing game, or anyone who customizes one of their vehicles, or any owner who blogs about trouble he's having with his Ferrari. The arrogance of Ferrari SpA is unbelievable. Are some Ferraris, at least older ones, nice cars? Sure. Are they that special? No.
Leoz ◊ 2011-01-30 21:24	Looking back on Clarkson - I preferred him when he did Motorworld and early Top Gear. These days I still find him a little entertaining, but there are much better car enthusiasts and journalists.
blackdr ◊ 2011-04-10 00:22	I find this car to be just an F60 which has been outclassed by more or less every modern ferrari out there right now, even their entry level 458 italia. I mean if it was a real enzo ferrari the f40, the last one made during the old mans rein with no power steering, a brutal turbo and no interior accommodations besides seats and the roll down windows (a true racecar for the street like the 250 gto and the 288) I could see people getting upset. but this car was just a million dollar technological showcase not a work of Passion like those cars and thus I dont care that some hedge fund dirtbag had his ferrari crashed by some not so funny comedian -- Last edit: 2011-04-10 00:24:36

The arrogance of Ferrari SpA is unbelievable. Are some Ferraris, at least older ones, nice cars? Sure. Are they that special? No. True. Last year, at the Frankfurt Motor Show, Ferrari was the only one that didn't allow people to go into their booth. Except for owners and potential customers. They have forgotten the people that build the company. But older Ferrari race cars like the 250 GT0 and P4 are very special, because those cars are from the days before Ferrari became what it is today, a rich, arrogant car company for people with money.

irarelywatchmovies ◊ 2024-02-05 10:36	Terrible movie but hey, the Enzo is my personal dream car
irarelywatchmovies ◊ 2025-06-30 06:05	Although the Enzo (serial number #130727) did survive the movie, as we all know Eddie Griffin crashed it during a promotional event at Irwindale Speedway in 2007. It was repaired in Texas in 2008, and currently resides in Pennsylvania. https://exclusivecarregistry.com/details/ferrari/enzo/7154 Ferrari historian Carbon McCoy did a video with VINwiki, in which he states that after the crash this car's next owner was Andy House, the same Andy House who drove his Bugatti into a lake in Texas as part of an insurance fraud scheme in 2009. https://youtu.be/vrjmXcT8QyU?si=iJzUaLnopzm7l-N3 -- Last edit: 2025-07-19 05:55:00
