warbody Posted July 27, 2007 Report Share Posted July 27, 2007 @Warbody: Good luck! $1000 is not too much, though maybe harder to get in the Dominican. My first car was a Mustang 5.0 as a present for my 18th birthday, for good grades on graduation from HS. I know Mustangs are the better Fords, but let's just say there is a reason that Ford is known as "Found On Road Dead" or "Fix Or Repair Daily"... Thanks vbarrett apparently you really know about Dominican Republic .. isnt easy to get $1,000 and even worst if your young Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pugwash Posted July 27, 2007 Report Share Posted July 27, 2007 Tell us more. Well, I got a cheap Aer Lingus flight to Ireland to help some friends out for a week. It's a 6-day contract or so. So, I took a jet to work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchmeister Posted July 27, 2007 Report Share Posted July 27, 2007 I am familiar with "Car Envy". A number of years ago I used to have a weekend tennis game with the head of the Vintage Car department at Sothebys. He was 70 years old back then and an incredible tennis player. In any case, becaouse he lived only a couple of miles down the road he would bring out a different car every weekend. In one tennis season he drove over something approximating $10 million worth of cars (and that was twelve years ago). I only know this because I got curious and started writing down whatever the car was he brought over that weekend. He always enjoyed explaining the provenance as older gentlemen do. Of course I couldn't resist and would check the historical auction records for those type of cars. And no, I never got to drive one. Hey V- Glad to hear you are hanging in St. Barts. It is one of my favorite places in the world. I manage to spend 3-4 weeks a year there. Haven't tried the Smart car though. Kids trash that concept.

Stephane Posted July 27, 2007 Report Share Posted July 27, 2007 Ok, well I do not care so much about "luxury cars", allthough I'm happy to drive an Alfa Romeo. But, if I ever had too much money it would definitely be a black DB9. Cheers Stephane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b16a2 Posted July 28, 2007 Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 If I ever come into money, I will be buying a Zonda F. Looks awesome, and it sounds like the devil is trying to communicate with the outside world through it's exhaust pipes...... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=silJgVMSKDc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
