I currently have two Firefox windows open. I opened the second one to write this post, and that's all that's on it. The first window, on the other hand, has nine tabs open.
Tab #1: An eBay Motors listing for a 2010 GT500 in Texas. Red with Tungsten stripes. Pretty nice.
Tab #2: Take a guess.
Tab #3: Try again.
Tab #4: A trend might be emerging here.
Tab #5: Trend? What's that?
Tabs #6 through #9: Pictures of the four things depicted above.
For the record, I didn't set this layout up for this post. I set it up to demonstrate to my little brother the simple and uncontested fact of life that "Ferraris all sound like that anyway". This came up while he was pushing Hot Wheels cars around a track, and asked me which of three cars would probably win a race. The three cars? A 512 Testarossa, F50, and 156 (look 'em up). I responded with the F50. He went "Ah, OK". I then proceeded to say that the 156 would probably sound better, though (despite the fact that I can't seem to find a recording of one. Come on, it's a Ferrari with open exhaust. It can't be that bad.), and gave the above quote.
Thus, I put this presentation together. Upon its conclusion, he nodded his head and said "Yeah, OK" and went back to watching TV. I get the feeling I'll need a different candidate for my successor in the car-fan business. The F430 should be able to win even the most die-hard Prius-lover into an appreciation for the higher-powered things in life. If that doesn't work, and I'm trying to convert someone to the Church of Horsepower (that's not blasphemous, is it?), then I resort to the old tricks:
Bahaha. I think it just might be a bad thing that I hear that and laugh maniacally about just what I'll be doing to the Mustang once it turns 25 and it doesn't have to meet emissions standards anymore...
