Funny that you posted this. My little brother really was dead set on an old Ferrari for his 1st real car he would buy. I had to take him somewhere yesterday and he asked why I like muscle cars. About that time some guy in a new VW golf GTI pulled up and well I showed him what a good ol fashioned V8 can do in a straight line against a car. HE NEARLY CRAPPED HIS PANTS!
The tires broke loose going from 1-2 then again from 2-3. After he calmed down he was dead set on a muscle car. He just kept saying yea Ferraris look really cool, but dang that was awesome. For the last day he just keeps asking about all the different muscle cars.
