Ferrari Mailing List: Re: New Ferrari Classic Car Division

[LS (lashdeep]

It will offer uneducated and impatient buyers piece of mind. It's a sign

I'd rather research a car and be involved with the inspection personally
and bank the $$$ for some maintenance and/or mods.

Are we, as a society, getting dumber?
