You should get a 288 GTO. It is more driver friendly I than the F40. That is what I hear. It is just a pretty. I think the 355 is a modern day equal to the 288. Especially for a person like me that likely will never be able to afford a 288. 400 HP is a nice amount for the road.

@TheCarGuys.TV no thats an older model. I am talking about the rd2 with celics like lights. Interestingly, the predecessor F2 had the following marketing tagline "On average, men think about the F2 every 6 seconds." Did you know that no more than 1100 F2 were made. That makes it rarer than an F40. Maybe I should copy your Ferrari series and do a "Drive every Hyundai Coupe model/variant series" I am sure it has great potential.

I regret selling my Speed Yellow Gen 1 996 GT3 Club Sport even though I did own in for 12 years. It was a bit lacking in performance compared to the Gen 2 but that was remedied after I had the K400 Manthey upgrade fitted and great on track after having the geo set up by Parr Garage, a well known Porsche specialist. I made a small profit on it but values have gone up a fair bit since. Now owned by an Australian Porsche enthusiast based on the Isle of Man. F40 probably my favourite car of all time.

Good episode. I have experienced buying cars with head and heart,(trying my best to balance both) and sometimes buying with the heart, or head alone. Having bought cars with either one and I have regretted it. Both in balance and I have cherished, and enjoyed it, and when selling, not made much of a loss emotionally or financially, providing I have had something of similar impact to replace it with. Far more difficult to sell when a car stimulates head and heart equally though, and you MUST have something with equal significance (to you) to replace it with, otherwise repent, repent and repent! Haha. The F40 is almost unrepeatable - I remember encouraging you to buy the 288 as a replacement, for example.

My first car was an Austin maestro which should come under the cars I should never have bought banner but was so easy to work on it actually became fun to own and never actually broke down merely a clutch cable went taking 10 mins to fit a new one.

I got a B/W photo but I lost the negative in the post when it was sent out with an idea for a story to Enzo magazine. At least I had a digital copy, but the quality is very questionable, and the copy of Ferrari Story that I got around the same time in 1987 about an F40 was damaged by a water leak in my apartment a few years ago. Damien, if I as a Ferrari enthusiast am very very sad because I lost a negative and have a ruined magazine and lost memories, I can't believe how you are feeling inside.

Hi, my name is Randall. I don't think you deserve any humble pie for selling a car. You purchased it, enjoyed for a time, and when it was time, you moved on. Like women. Each car has a season. We are just care takers of them for a time. I think at heart you buy cars you like, not to make money on them. I'm not a wealthy person. My first car was a used U.S. Renault LeCar Black Beauty version. I have my first dream car, the Renault R5 Turbo2. The Ultimate Renault of the early 80s. Like you say there is a limit to how many cars you can have for various reasons. If your situation warrants, you sell. I have never sold a car. I have junked two. Both Renaults. My first new car is my MR2 Turbo. My dream is a F355 GTS. You have had some awesome cars. Don't regret selling, you make it possible for someone else's dream to come true!!

Don't think you should judge Porsche on one incident. We're all human and make mistakes. I'd say being this candid might harm the growth of your channel and relationships with car dealers in general. Feels like resentment, I'd reach out to Porsche to try and start a fresh. PS: Keep up the good work, I really enjoy your channel.

Although one can judge Porsche on everything else they do when it comes to 'allocating' their cars to people. They knowingly sell them to flippers in order to build up the values, and thus the hype.

When I walk into a room of car guys and tell them I drive a diesel golf auto, there is silence. So I too know the feeling.

Forget the F40 - It's in your past - An LFA is what you need in your future 👍

Am so with you on that. An F40 is iconic, but the LFA is magical.

Forget F40 and LFA, get a 288 GTO instead.

Your first Porsche and the F40 need to return just to bury those demons of regret

No, Damien! You can not call yourself a "Ferrari fan" when you own an F40 and you sell it! It's a piece of Ferrari History but....I forgive you, as you have the best channel on KZbin! ❤️

I could forgive you the first four, but the F40 is inexcusable! Hopefully whoever bought it is putting some mileage on it, still!
