Ferrari Mailing List: SPOILER - well, kinda and Clyde's Guide

[Rick Lindsay (richardolindsay]

The F1 craziness has begun. No tolerance on the rules but lots of tolerance in the measurement instruments! And what a stupid position for the stewards to take; "He should have dialed it back and slowed down." Yea, slowed down. That's gonna happen. What should have happened is the variability in the instrument should have defined the tolerance in the rules.

BTW, I'm right there with Clyde on the buying guidelines except my experience is paying 10% below asking. Then again, my guideline number is related to the old British iron I more often buy, not red cars.

One point Clyde makes is sadly true. White and blue cars command less coins. In my opinion its not because they're any less pretty but rather, because the new owner-to-be wants a Ferrari that's blatantly obvious to be a Ferrari. Witness the red/tan bias.

Personally, I want a blue/tan 550 Maranello.
