Regardless, I can't be bothered to check, but, I would not be surprised if the definition of an utter clown included some mention of taking a specific point in time, such as when a garage is not 100% clean, and generalizing that point in time to eternity. As has been so clearly stated before, some people actually WORK on cars which, by definition, will get things a bit dirty.
Yes, I do. Do you seriously believe Ford, GM, Toyota, etc. don't have an equal amount of engineering in their racing programs?

They don't, or better, they do a different kind of engineering R&D, which then gets applied to production cars. Don't forget that Ferrari is part of the FIAT group.

Do you know how to be any more vague in your ridiculously pathetic statements? I mean, SERIOUSLY, you haven't responded specifically to anything I have posted. Just meaningless generalizations with absolutely zero topical content.
Your inability to comprehend my posts exceeds raaaid's. I'll say it slower...
I never said anything about a lack of engineering effort on Ferrari's part. I merely stated that your belief that Ferrari's production cars are, "engineering marvels", is ridiculous. They are practically hand built for Pete's sake. It's easy to produce a hot car when you take that approach.
An engineering marvel is something that kicks a$$ AND lasts.

you keep on accusing me of what you do man. I told you before..
Have you had a look on how the latest generation Ferrari are designed? Or the new 4wd system introduced with the Ferrari FF? Come on man, Ferrari's engineering solutions have been envied and copied by so many others for decades!

Case in point. You have said NOTHING in the above statement. Additionally, the original was the GT40, not the GT.

you're nitpicking, and they're turning the new GT into a stupid muscle car only good on a straight line (actually it can't even go on a straight line..).

Why won't you answer my question with real substance and/or detail?
Furthermore, I never stated that the Ford GT (or any other car for that matter) would not have problems so your repeated mention of Clarkson is just drivel.
I love your double standard of Ferraris are great despite their WELL KNOWN horrible reliability and absolutely stupid maintenance requirements but ONE guy's story of the troubles he had with a Ford GT and therefore the Ford GT is a piece of junk compared to a Ferrari.

you're generalising just like you're accusing me of doing, yet....

You never asked me to explain.
It's pretty simple though. If you could read at a sufficient level you would have noticed where I previously stated how good the older models look. Combined with their investment value and the model I'm interested in, it's not a hard decision.

So you're happy to put up with an (alleged) bitch of a car for looks and as an investment? Interesting..
