Yup - I had an F599 GTB coupe on my page - GOLDENEYE had an F355 GTS Spyder - but I swapped in an F348 GTS Spyder

The first Ferrari 308 GTS Spyders (as in Magnum PI) actually were made with fiberglass bodies - then later manufactured in metal -

I did some tricky ImageMagick wizardry stuff on a few photos to get the 980x735 proportion formatt (but wrong for an HDTV letterbox “Cinemascope/Todd-Ao” screen) - So many great photographs are severely cropped at top and bottom - and even at the sides - that they look like a squashed image except for the car

The Ferrari 348 GTS Spyder goes (used) for less than many (new) fully optioned plastic Ricemobiles and clones - The dumb Chevy VOLT goes for a dinky $41,000 buckeroos - to please O’Bummer and the Enviro-NUTSIES

I saw you had changed it out but couldn’t recall what you had had before that. Lots of pretty cars. Saw your ‘diamonds’ on the one.

Some of the cars look really nice cut out, but I remember painting pixel by pixel around some so they could be posted on black!! No more, my eyes are tired, lol.

I guess $41,000. can seem expensive to some people, especially now days.
