Geez your whining about everyone being a troll is getting old.
Regardless, post some substance and respond to actual points made and the nitpicking won't be necessary.
SERIOUSLY, raaaid can argue better than you.

So what, every major manufacturer has their list.
But that's not the point. Your continued blathering about Ferrari technology is such a wasted effort as my ONLY point regarding Ferraris...

You're correct if your definition of an, "engineering marvel", is a car that requires a $5k+ engine out service every 15k miles or 3 years.

That's it. Agree or disagree but posting pointless and blatantly obvious fact after fact DOES NOT CHANGE the above. If that's your definition, then fine, just say so.

Even in the best of hands and treatment the MANUFACTURER'S RECOMMENDED maintenance requirements are just pathetic. For such craftsmanship, you should get something better.

Every car will get damaged or will suffer breakdowns if it's manhandled, and cars like older Ferraris, with no rev limiters, stability control and all the new gizmos they come with, are particularly prone because of the fact that they can be easily taken over the limits.

Your insufferable pandering is just plain sad. Now you're just trying to point fingers and blame their issues on everything BUT the cars.

Oh please, stop trying to back off from the total a$$hat you've been up to this point.
