Rosso Scuderia in the news.

There's a new Ferrari I can't afford. It's called the F430, and the Top Gear guys literally couldn't think of anything bad to say about it. It's perfect in every way, except that I don't have one. Reviews by C&D and R&T. (Curiously, the websites for these two carfan mags are very similar. Owned by the same company?) This picture is airbrushed to death and the real car looks much cooler... check out the articles.

Along with this wonderful news, I found out that there's a "test bed" Ferrari that they're making only TWENTY of (!!!) called the FXX and if they haven't called you, you can't get one. It's based on the Enzo (399 Enzos were made, 398 more than I need, so why don't I have one?) loaded with telemetry that tells Maranello just how fast you were going when those cops couldn't catch you. Sadly, I have received no such phone call.

Thanks to fellow car nut and Modena fan Tee for bringing me the Top Gear episode about the F430, which is hard core supercar pornography of the first water.

(Where the phrase "of the first water" comes from.)
