Now I have seen everything. Somehow, "unscrupulous" seems the most apropros.

Somewhere, Il Commendatore is rolling over in his grave at the state of affairs of his beloved company. Here are a few quotes from the man that in a way, put into perspective where Ferrari is today in F1:
Absolutely true. A land where time has stood still for 60+ years...
So right.
I love you!
Well played!
My first car was a brand new 1970 1/2 Camaro 350. Blue with a white vinyl roof. Had the car for 3 years and then traded it for a 1967 427-400 hp Corvette roadster. I miss that Camaro a lot I found one online that was very similar to what I had had.
I don't know about Bangle creations aging like a fine wine. Time has done nothing for me regarding his designs. "Flame surfacing" didn't work back then and it doesn't work now. The only reason that any of his designs would appear to be genius is because current BMW design is so pathetic.
I think the Turks should stick to coffee, baths and cigarettes...
If I didn't know any better, I would have believed this to be a photo op session from the Korean War and half expected to see F86 Sabres flying overhead, baiting the Migs to come up and play. Glorious Leader is sure a heartthrob, isn't he? Look at those gorgeous women clamoring over him. And to think that Justin…
I remember what a terrible time it was for consumers as well as suppliers, not only for Chrysler, but for GM as well. I really feel that for the most part, American cars have improved immensely in quality and reliability. I am still leery about buying a new American car for daily use, but when it comes to a "toy" car,…
My last American car was purchased in 1976. I bought a brand new Chevy Monza. Sharp looking, but this was the time of emerging emissions' standards as well as stronger safety requirements. Well, I took delivery of the car and it bucked so bad down the street that I decided to take it back to the dealer. Dealer took…
Great article Paul. I am now 62 years old, but could tell any WW2 plane or jet fighter of the 50s's when I was 5 years old. My best friend's dad was a Naval Commander of the Naval Reserve close to where I lived. His dad then went on to sell airplanes, one notably to Jim Hall of Chaparral fame. His dad badgered both my…
A real shame. Solid driver and someone who can score points. I am sure that he doesn't have a large enough suitcase of cash to keep a seat in F1. Hope he goes to the WEC.
Boos and hisses...
Who cares about class when you can blow the doors off anything that comes out of Germany?...
Touche! 5 star post
Mark Donohue said it best. He coined the phrase, "Unfair Advantage". There have always been the best teams who have interpreted the rules in a way different from other teams. Gordon Murray was a master at it with Brabham and McLaren. Colin Chapman was a wizard at pushing the boundaries. Adrian Newey is of the same…
Why do I smell Lucas Electrics in this? The bane of English cars for a century...
Perfect car to go hooning in Rappahannock county.
