Save and invest when all your friends are spending every dollar they have.

Nice Ferrari!! I am a little envious, but then I remember that you have worked your ass off for it, and it is a testament to how hard work and being wise with your money pays off in the end.


I try to get my friends to understand this simple concept. Every time one of them gives a hard time about how good I have it, I remind them that they are putting all their money into car payments and credit card payments.

Meaning that has to be a hell of a payment. I hate having my payment on a 40k truck. More or less that Ferrari payment.

But they are bad ass. I would ask why the mpg is but money like that I don't think it matters :D

Food for thought....Buddy's 458 Italia's car insurance runs him $1500 a month:uh oh:

OP-LOVE the car!!! Can't wait to see it detailed and more pictures taken!!!

I always get the 550 and 575M confussed. Basically the same car just different running gear and powerplant.

But I always like the front engine Ferrari's a little more over the mid engine models.

My new toy just got dropped off at my other house to bad I am not there to enjoy it. I have been working on my new house so my neighbor took delivery and some pics for me.

(This is not a picture thread. So, it is properly placed in Roadside.)

Oh yeah and I included the view from my back door of the new house.

OK, you win, you are officially my hero.

Careful the 99% are going to be jealous and want to tax you more.

Okay Adam, you are a Fed and probably maxed out or close to it. So I say, making a little over 100k a year. But my question is, what do you do as second and third job? :D

He has said plenty about where he invests his income.

Ferrari's always seemed to use lesser quality parts then Lamborghini's to me. Case in point, the material specs on the wheels. Look like the stock wheels on my v6 Camaro.

......I want your life........ha. The view off of your back porch is plenty enough for me to be jealous about. I would so love to live new water like that. When is the new house going to be done? Do you have a thread on that?

I'm pretty new here and do not know your back story. However, just from what others are saying in this thread, I can tell you and I would likely have a lot of the same views in life.

Congrats to you on a very nice form of transportation. If I could afford luxury sports cars, I'd be looking to buy an Aventador myself. Maybe I'll get lucky and hit the lottery. Otherwise, I'll keep saving up to buy a 2014 GT500. ;-)

Nice Adam, very nice.


As far as the pics in roadside, It is one of the perks of the job. Just like we can sticky a thread if we want.

We consider it our salary.

Congratulations Adam!:beer::rockon:
Stunning car!:eek::uh oh:

Now treat us to some in car video, (with exhaust note prominent) at the up coming Track-Guys Sebring event.
Registration Open: Texas World Speedway and Sebring International Raceway | TrackGuys

"May 25 – 27: Kenny Brown Performance Sebring Sensation and Boss Mustang Reunion, Sebring International Raceway (3.7 mile road course)

Come help us celebrate our 10th year at Sebring!"

No better way to get to learn your car than at a track event where you can chose how fast or slow you want to go.
No shame in running in a slower run group when getting familiar with the new equipment.
