    What if Mercedes or Audi buys Ferrari and start making cars like a sedan version of Enzo?

    Only one week to go till FIAT's official financial report.

    We'll see then what parts have been makign profit these last 6 months !
    Maser were bleeding Euros
    Ferrari sales revenue was up slightly BUT they've been VERY quiet about PROFIT.

    FIAT were in 300M profit last quarter BUT remember GM paid them $1.5B so ther coudl maybe still be a GUHE loss luriking in their business

    maybe Ford will finally be able to buy it. Enzo basically spit on him when Henry Ford II(i think it was) tried to buy Ferrari the first time

    i dont care though....
    jejejejejeje maybe we would see a new supercar like the gt40 when ferrari says no to ferrari again
    Live and let die

    I'd rather not see some crappy as suspension arms make it into a Ferrari.

    Ford is known for bad reliability, and their customer service. They fix things that need not be fixed.

    I had one for rent for 6 days, and that was enough for me from Ford.

    I had a Focus for rent after my 3000's accident.
    That SOB broke down 20 miles after leaving Ford. I took it back, and found out it was out of fuel. So they fueled it up, and then I had a flat tire. Fixed that, and once again, same tire felt off. Stupid arseholes didn't do crap. The tire they gave me was an entirely different tire from the rest.

    I had enough from them after that, but gave it a chance. Day 6 and that piece of crap stalled on me. Sent it back. I didn't mind that that it was used and a rental, but the crap they told me that it is already to go.

    I really have nothing against the quality, its the customer service that pisses me off. My last encounter with Ford, I got ignored fo 30 minutes inside the dealer making obvious signs I wanted to test drive the Mustang GT. I finally asked someone, they told me they'd get another guy. Never showed up.
