I thought JJ retired at the same time as lifecoach?
So can we vote for packs please? Pleeeeease?
The new Ferrari have 8 seats ;)
StanCifka GG EZ
Sooooo are they going to pony up the two grand a month to insure this beast or the 500+ that it costs to change the oil or the almost 1000 it costs to do something as mundane as change the brake pads? A Ferrari is an amazing car until you have to do anything other than drive it. When you factor in the cost of insurance the rough cost to own a Ferrari for a year is right around $30,000. That is all to say that I'd take the cash option.
Money is still better
but for Ferrari you need to pay for taxation (in your country) and transportation.
No free packs for voting? O:)
Now all we need is a dogggg vs dog match.
ferrari?..
I remember last time they did this. They didn't look happy at all when they lost the Ferrari to any thing other than an domestic. :D
I'm trying to find the video where he drove of with it, you'd understand when I mean by that much easier if I did :D
