i didnt know i was getting seats that are harder than my GT2club sports,
i didnt know theres no mute switch in that hell of an explosive engine,
i didnt know i would hear every little stone on the road,
i didnt know i would feel showers under the car when rained.....

i dont have a track where i live, but every mile in my rides are driven like i stole it, i dont use it to go to dinners or whatever, so i guess i AM using it for the intended purposes.

Iceman is an unknown quantity at this point
The Scuderia will became an instant classic like the 360 CS, the common 458 will be forgotten soon and loose value like 360 and 430.

Yea, surprisingly even with conversion for inflation, $125k (1985) is only ~$255k (2010), which is less than a 599 GTO. BUT, if you look at the price of a 308 in 1985, $60k, the GTO was twice the price ($121k 2010),

You need to sell your Scud. You don't like it. Why keep it? Your salesman should have told you a little more about the car before you bought it.

Don't pay a nickle over msrp on the 458. They Hype won't be worth it in 6 months when a chunk of used ones are on the market for 50k off msrp.
