Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Need group wisdom on pricing for 2007 F430

[Paul K Rentiers (rentiers]

Clyde is right. As usual. 

No one needs a 100K+ car these days. No one with a brain is accruing debt 
period.

I am passing the winter in my trusty El Cheapo Repo, a 2003 F150, courtesy of 
Brian Buxton who picked it up at auction for me. Besides it's fun to fix the 
odd bits that need refurbishing. Today; while the wastrels flagellate their 
eyeballs watching the 8 hour Stupor Bowl PreGame Blatherthon, I am installing 
some zoot headlights with little LEDS like on an Audi R8. 

How's that cLdYe? All the sizzle of a Deutsch-shitbox without paying for the 
steak! Pic of truck here: http://www.lifeitsownself.com/?p=15510

I crack myself up  :-))
