I can only dream of what it must be like to be able to take out a Scud when you're 458 is being fixed.

Great pics though. Scud will always be a timeless classic and one of my favourite, if not, my overall favourite car.

and honestly my scud gets better with age, even with my 458 breathing down its neck.
it probably is the last ferrari that drives and feel like a "ferrari".
The 458 took everything to another level, along with it came smoothness and comfort which were unheard of before.

i just came back from a ride in that lambo balboni with kresig exhaust, everytime the guy shifts full throttle, i get a whiplash, its insane. It feels like an exotic, the ride is hard and everything feels firm and raw, its cramped and all very exotic compromising, but i cant buy into that coming from 430s and 458s, its just too brutal.
guess, im getting old.
i can see why some people like it, but once u get spoiled by ferraris, the lambos are just too raging.

the 458 is in another world, but the scud is still the best ferrari driving experience.
