My favorite part has always been at the end of the first clip when they take off from the stop sign and go over the bridge shifting gears.

I second that. It's beautiful to see that cobra out accelerate the ferrari.

Do you think the Ferrari sites have "Gumball" threads?

Perhaps he watched the film version in a theater instead of the VHS, Beta or DVD version on TV?  |

Fox,
You need to brush up a little on your Ferraris. 
The Dino was the "baby" Ferrari, the 365 GTB/4 "Daytona" was the big Daddy.
In classic Ferrari terms, the Daytona is a real bargin at the moment if anyone fancies one to accompany their Cobra. But don't expect it to stay that way for long.  |

Well since nearly all us have replica Cobras it would be more appropriate to get one of those Vette-based 'Don Johnson' Daytona replicas anyway.

Not to go too far off track with this thread but the 246 Dino did not have any Ferrari badges. It was to be its own marque.
Ferrari selected Fiat for the engine production and this was the first move that eventually saw Fiat owning controlling interest in Ferrari’s street vehicles |

Likewise with the 308 GT4. Now that really is a bargain and can only go up in value. It also has the added benefit of being a 2+2, so you can even get the kids in the back.  |

Back on track, you can download the the full DVD of the movie from www.thepiratebay.org if you aren't too fussy about copyright.  |

Well, the buy-in may be low but 308GT4 2+2 will have high maintenance costs, they do not have high desirability (rated a C by Sports Car Market) and they have had only a 5% increase in value in the last year. |
