Must be nice...

You know, Ive never met a Ferrari owner with buyers remorse, and believe it or not, they are all aware of what an Elise costs and still dont lose a minutes sleep about it at night.

+1

Ferrari owners know of a lot of the alternatives but have their reasons to go with Ferrari in the end.

After watching a documentary on Enzo Ferrari, and having been on the track in a 355 (not me driving, of course ). I have a lot more respect for those cars and it's history.

I'd probably just buy an Atom, noble, and a supercharged Type-R motor Lotus... I don't want to know what exotic owners pay for insurance or the feeling when you park your car somewhere public.
