The sexiest Ferrari ever made...

[hippie metal]

too cool for ferraris without a clutch pedal

flappy pedals blow, doesnt matter what i drive. those stupid things take away the soul of driving the car, shift and 3rd pedal is how it should be, i dont care that they make the car faster with the flappys, driving/owning a car like that, in my opinion requires the 3rd pedal I'm pretty sure its not terribly hard to understand where I'm coming from with this

Sounds like people are just refusing to embrace technology and advancements in the automotive industry. 'Flappy' pedals keep both hands on the wheel and I'm sure it helps when you're going 150+ miles per hour.

If you want to pretend you're a boss and drive straight arm at 12:00 with your right hand on the shifter, that's cool, I'm sure Toyota made some Celicas in standard just for you.

that you wont drive or own a ferrari 458 unless it was a traditional stick shift

i guess its all just opinions, but i find the overly overt "HAS TO BE A MANUAL TO BE A CAR" mindset people hold is a little ridiculous...especially given the circumstances. but i understand your angle all the same

sorry for the technicality

what i said stands

haha i'm mearly pointing out that ryan is wrong, they aren't like driving an automatic. technicalities are my specialty.


now these assholes apparently can't drive automatic ferrari's and crash them instead

Didn't they kill someone in the process?

[Buffalo Phil]

They didn't need to kill anyone, but I'm sure one of the Ferrari engineers had a fucking stroke.

I am not really into whippin down the road anymore at such speeds, also I am sure that the flappys results in better handling to some extent. But for me, if I were to own that car, and dont get me wrong its a beautiful car, I would want to be able to roll down my windows, put my foot on the clutch, and skill it down the road via my arm and left foot timed correctly. As for 12 O'clock bossing it casanova stylee.. We all know those are held for civics and M3s....

A) I wont own a ferrari.....mostly cause I'll never be able to afford one

B) you probably are right, given the circumstances, I might be down to drive it anyway, but the fact that there was no 3rd pedal, would continuously erk my mind

[Ruepart Hoaxley]

Given preference, a manual would be more desirable...

I'm not denying the fact the thing is 3.1415926535xa million times cooler than any car I own, I just don't like paddle shifts. Would I drive one? Yes. Will I ever? Probably not, unless I win the lottery.

Fair enough.

A red 458 passed me on my Triumph on the Waikiki strip a few weeks back. I'm not a huge flappy paddle fan, but I wouldn't bitch.

Yeah. You can see half the motorcycle between the 2 cars in the pic. The other half of it is in front of the silver one. Its sad that the guy was killed but both drivers are in jail. That's at the state police department i deliver to

Good, fuck them. If they can't drive an auto then they need to be in fucking jail.
