Going to cars and coffee yesterday go me thinking. With only 1 passanger seat, and it really doesnt work with a kids seat as is, what am going to do when baby #2 comes? My daughter would have loved to have come with me yesterday, and hopefully baby #2 will eventually want to come as well, then what? As much as i love the 348, i think i should keep the Rs2. 1 has to go, keeping both not an option anymore. Sell both buy 456? or Mclaren F1 lol i wish |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
sell the 348, your RS2 is a rare car as it is and it's a great "family" car too! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
RS2 > 456 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
oh, if you get the wife knocked up for the 3rd time. The RS2 would still be a great car too! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
i knew this thread was coming |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
keep/daily the RS2, put purrari in storage. |
||||||||

Actually there where less 348tbs made than RS2s haha. Can't daily the rs2. Parts are Ferrari expensive and Europe only. A front bumper is like 4000 euro! If I store the Ferrari it will just decay. They don't like too sit around for long periods. I don't wanna sell either lol. Damn it what to do |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
I honestly don't understand the fascination that you guys have with the RS2. I get it. It's rare, blah blah blah, but it's not something that I would get a smile driving all the time. Ferrari all the way. |

Ferrari all the way. im with this guy. sell the rs2 and get a caravan and another smaller toy that you can fit in the garage next to the prancing horse. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
This thread doesn't make sense to me, by the time he has a second kid and starts driving the family to shows he would've gone through 10 cars already. Putting the cart before the horse here imo. +1 on the FERRARI tho, it's not even close. Wagon is cool and all but nikras please. Plus the story behind buying the rarri is pretty cool and it has the potential of a car to keep for life imo. That rs2? Meh |

Lol. It could have 800 hp and handle like a champ, but it's still an Audi wagon. It's a marginal step up than an ITR. Not that that is a bad thing. It's just not a Ferrari. No contest. |

Says the guy that has driven every car in the world remotely via youtube and ps3 [top gear/chris harris] Tell us more about the feels of those g forces you felt in your basement in your biway office chair. |

|

|

|
|
|||||||
LMAO @ biway |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Holy fuck, I'd forgotten about Biway. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
P.S. Post more pics of both cars, to help us decide for you. |

However, I don't understand the allure for a manufacturer that cheated its way to success countless times. Real talk - Rob will flip both cars and buy something else totally unrelated See his previous thread. ahahaha |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
That wouldn't be a bad thing either. I actually love seeing people flip cars. I just drive the shit out of them and keep them for decades. I mean, one car's been in my family since 1962, the other one in my sig was bought new in 1994, I bought my other car in 1996. I wonder how long I can make the new truck last. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
I don't know what the issue is. You can fit at least two babies in here. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Cut some speed holes so their heads can poke out. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
biway lol i think keeping the Ferrari is the thing to do. if i sell it, there is almost zero chance of getting another. |

The hunt and the catch are half the fun. Then fix, drive, make some $$ and continue on. If i didn't flip any cars i would not have the Ferrari or the Rs2 |

I don't care that it's a Ferrari, it could be a Kia for all i care. Some cars just feel like they are alive. My Ducati's where the same. But on the other side some are just missing something. The Lancia was missing something, my Aprilia Tuono Factory cost me a butt load and it was missing something. The chopped up beetle i had cost me $3500 and it had "it" |

^ visited the Ferrari store on our trip a couple of weeks ago. That suit is already $250 right there. As for which car to keep, look at it objectively: 1). Which will turn a larger profit and keep the hunting game for longer? 2). Which was harder to acquire such that it's harder to let go? 3). Which of the above 2 points is worth more to you? IMO, the practicality issue is out the window as both are rare now and driving the family around is not an option. Sure your daughter is too young now to cause accident scuffs when getting in and out, but it will happen and you won't let her touch it later on. So consider both cars as just for you only / equally impractical for daily use. |

If i didn't flip any cars i would not have the Ferrari or the Rs2 Actually, I do get that part. I buy cars for people in my club, as well as friends. I like negotiating. I just like hanging onto my own cars for quite a while. I still really want an Alfa. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Does the rs2 have "it"? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
i don't get what the issue is.. in reality, both cars will eventually be sold. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Keep the Ferrari. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Sell whichever one you've made more money on. #YOLO |
||||||||

1988 Ferrari Mondial http://wwwb.autotrader.ca/a/Ferrari/FF/V...CPO&orup=6_15_6 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Cheap for a reason. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Well I was looking for the FF but at 270K minimum, it would be a tough pill |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Jebus. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Keep 348 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
if you sell both cars - you can ask your kids to help you to make a ferrari out of a cardboard box for you. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
thats awesome! hahah I should have bought a testarossa. I passed on one with like 8,000 miles for 55k Just didnt have 55k. Now that same car is probably over 100k US!!! DOH |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
A good question to ask would be if you're still going to be flipping cars after the baby comes? maybe not as much? |
||||||||

My question was directed at SW20MR2 who said "it's not a ferrari, no contest". Makes it sound like the holy grail or something. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
If there is no practicality needed or care for maintenance cost or volume of required maintenance (then again the other car IS an Audi lol ) I say keep the Ferrari |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Forgot to answer your question. It's not something that you can measure. I suppose it's just a completely different class of vehicle, and for some, it is the holy grail of cars. I see the RS2 as just a factory modded version of a run of the mill wagon. There's nothing wrong with that, but to me it just doesn't have that "it" factor that Rob talks about. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
you know my answer.... I say keep the Ferrari! |

It totally depends on the person I guess. I see an old Ferrari I think 'that's cool'.... I see a RS2? HOLYWTFBBQ!!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
^ you are bias to all cars/trucks equipped with TDI engine and made by VW/Audi group |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
lol Keep what makes your own pants tight. I know some people sneer at me for the cars I have, but I like them, and I have them for my own reasons. Sorry, Mr Obvious opinion, but still |
||||||||
|

dude you know you want it '96 3.5RL first gen LEGENDDAARUUUU! |

Wish the first Generation Legends weren't all rust buckets. I have fond memories from my childhood of the Vtec on that thing pulling like nobody's business. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Acura vigor or nothing. luda still has his |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Honestly, I'd drive either of those two. Sweet wheel cover centre caps. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
ROFL this thread went from a 348tb to a 3.5 fucking RL XD XD XD WHAT THE HECK oh wait rob does that too |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
I still maintain this is great fun. Bedridden, but enjoying the entertainment. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Any old Legends or Vigors left have purple tint and/or crown air fresheners in them. |

|
|

Nope!!!! Nevermind that i've also owned a Lancia Delta EVO and a friggen RS2. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Then never say never. You're zc-friggen-911! Which one do you want to sell, regardless of what the future holds? /quietly hoping the M3 is enough of a trade to drive one of your toys one day, either will be fine, ktnx. |
