Someone boost the numbers!!! HIYA!

Will you leave negative feedback if the winner does not pay up?

Hey, it's 12:47PST and we haven't seen any pics from the memorial service. What's up with that? Did the networks show up? Were there satellite trucks? How 'bout the Swedish Bikini Team? Inquiring minds have to know.

QUOTE (grantsfo @ Feb 24 2006, 03:49 PM) Damn there are people crazier than me!   $100 + for a stink'n hose! And how many bids came from 914club members ? Greg ?

I bid it up over a 100 bucks....

It turned out to be a non event except for a great sunny day for a canyon drive. Howard, myself, and two more guys showed. Had a great drive thru Decker Canyon then stoped on PCH to check out the area of the crash. Then on to Neptunes Net for lunch. Neptune's net had alot of bikers and a Supra club hanging around. Saw a new solstice though. looked good.

Lotta club members got to see and feel "the power of the hose" today at the LA AllEuro swap meet and car show! Good to see them all! It's safely back in Howard's possession, and ready to go to its new home! The Cap'n, proud and humbled to have been able to share in the experience!

I personally touched it with my latex Gloveed hand.

And I have to tell ya something..

It feels like I have POR15 stuck to me..

Hey guys. Here in Laughlin. Rode up with a friend that had to come up. Just got my email from Yahoo. Ferrari complained I did not get their permission to use their name in my auction. Shit! It's not like I used an outline of the car

Details to follow when I get home tomorrow night.

PS. There is a freaking UFO convention at this hotel!!!

How does that work? So Ferrari can have anyone's ebay item yanked? Because somone properly identifies the car a paticular part comes from? I think you were just getting too much attention.

Perhaps Ferrrari would like to donate some money to the local Mothers Against Drunk Driving since they decided to rain on your fund raising idea?

That's it. I'm cancelling my order for the 430.

What a bunch of crap.

So if I am selling a used Ferrari 308 I can't say it's a Ferrari?

That is just nuts.

Tried to find an email address for Ferrari to let them know what a bunch of p-sucking losers they are...but nothing on the site.....

I posted this over on the F-chat board...

Ferrari sucks,
Now MADD doesn't get their bucks,
All because of a hose...ebay blows.

The ebay ad was pulled by Ferrari or someone at this site. No sense of humour....what do you expect from a bunch of Fiat junk owners.

I always said if I came into money, I would not want a new Ferrari, although I didn't have a tangible reason why......... now I have a reason! Clearly the "intellectual" property rights have taken up the space previously occupied by passion.

Oh, this should be good

I bet they didn't like the bad PR that Mr. Enzo driver created, and Howie's auction was only

Damn, I may have to rethink my F1 favorite

Did you ever get on TV, Howard?

I'll bet you could REALLY stir up some shit if you want to. It'll be fun. I promise!

How about one of the cocksuckers from Ferrari SpA (Italy) make good and send a check to MADD.

Now I'm MAD

Make the Italian government eat shit. You could probly start a war.

Ferrari is now the italian Goverment? Damn, they're expanding

Fiat is. Like the US Postal service. A private organization with far too much government support. And then Fiat owns Ferrari.

So if the mail man tells me to have a nice day, i'd better, or the marines will kick my rectum?

Damn, i better get laid, tonight, or i'll be in a bad mood and get beat up

Seems to me Fiat hasn't owned Ferrari for several years, but I could be wrong. The Cap'n

It's not that extreme. It's mostly financial support when they tend to do a shit job. I suppose the marines could put you on their "to do" list. They would get around to it until 2050.


DON"T GET OFF TOPIC!!!

Howard, are you going to stir up some trouble, or what?

Ok, we start a fund to fly one of us over to Modena to kick the shit outta the F-cars PR dept. It shouldn't be to hard, they're a bunch of pussys that can't fight their way out of a paper bag and surrender faster than the French.

Who's setting up the paypal on this one. I'll donate next semesters tuition to see that!

....surrender faster than the frogs....

HAHA!

The car "before".

And "after"

i'm still amazed the door opened

BJH

I am all in favor off the "send a teener to modena" fund. someone in the ferrari organization needs to be flogged with that hose and I think italy is a perfect setting for this momentous occasion!

I will graciously volunteer to go kick some Italian F-Car PR ass. Knock some sense into those idiots.
Maybe they will start selling their 200mph cars only to people who actually "know" how to drive. Ooh, and maybe never selling their cars to anyone with a DUI. But then they would lose their entire "I'm rich therefore I should drive a fast car even though I am one of the biggest idiots to ever mash a throttle" customer base.

I'll just settle for them and me out back behind a bar. I'll go "Snatch" style bare-knuckle-boxing except with a Guiness in one hand and a fist in the other. You don't need two hands to beat an Italian.

How about you just relist it without mentioning that car manufacture's name. Something like...


Recently a very expensive Italian sports car crashed on the PCH. I have a hose that allegedely came from that Italian sports car. I recently attempted to list it for sale here, but the expensive Italian sports car manufacture complained to Ebay that it was a violation of their "intellectual property rights", so Ebay pulled the acution. It is relisted here without mention of the expensive Italian sports car company to prevent the violation of their intellectual property rights.... yadda.... yadda...yadda...


They can't complain because you don't list their name.


(I would do it just to publically tweak the "expensive Italian sports car" company's nose!

do it!

that would be fun, just like in band camp

b

funny...i guess ferrari doesn't mind their name being used in the listing of "makes" when searching for a car for sale. stupid weird.

You have to be a real jerk about it too. You have to post Ferrari of America's phone number, so that people can call them to verify its actually a hose from an expensive italian automobile. And then say in the description that the expensive automaker's real problem with the deal is that you were donating the profit to MADD. And that the expensive automaker is obviously against that because most of its customer base is drunk either before or after purchasing one of their fine automobiles.

Then say that it came off of a red car.

Channel 7 news this morning was talking about the crash again. Said they estimated the car doing 160 mph! Anyway, they mentioned Ferrari several times. I thought about calling the news station and letting them know the news channel was in "voilation of Ferrari intellectual property rights." Maybe I could have told them about the ebay ad. Then I thought about calling Ferrari and telling them that they are being violated by a television station.
