Rep Power: 3  | Congratulations on creating a unique Ferrari - if that doesn't stop the traffic nothing else will!
I have followed with great interest your P3/0846 - I am an enthusiast rather than being an expert in such complex affairs! - I noticed that Ferrari have launched Ferrari Classiche, a division that should remove any uncertainty surrounding the authenticity of Ferrari historic vehicles. The certification documents will officially attests to the cars' authenticity and also provides important documentation for buyers should the certified vehicles ever be sold on. I'm sure you're aware of this - but just thought I'd pass it on if you weren't.
Kind regards
Neil |

Rep Power: 25   | Dang Jim, that's a fine looking automobile and I guess it cost loadsa bucks....what I want to know is, how come you made so much money making those 'B' style movies?

Rep Power: 14  | Jim,
You might be amused to know that a half page article of this car... with pictures... appeared in one of this city’s major newspapers today (Cars section of the Herald-Sun, Melbourne Australia).
Congrats on building a car that looks great from every angle incidentally.

Rep Power: 25   | But a compliment in a way even though the publication's market position itself is, well lets just say, very low echelon. It's a goodly spread of pictures and very complimentary about the car. Interesting shot of it in white in a wind tunnel too.
I hasten to add that I didn't buy the mag (they all say that) and it was given to me as a kind of joke.

Rep Power: 5  | Re: First Real Photo of P 4/5 Jim, I am sure you have copies of these pics but I saw them on another forum I frequent, sure is a nice looking car! Look at the bottom of the thread to see pics of the car in motion 2006 Ferrari P4/5 by Pininfarina - NSX Prime
If anyone does not like me posting to another forum please let me know and I will remove the link

Rep Power: 28  | little painting tip.. hi Jim,
just a little suggestion for that nice beauty:
Why dont u add a white stripe on the car (maybe with a little 3color or american color flag in it) in the same way ferrari makes with super exclucive models as well as Fxx or 360 challenge race version?
Obviously..just a good adhesive one...to make even more unique
