    They should do supercar electric with a external soundsystem playing Enzo recordings for all the motor noises. Call it a Milli Vanilli Chili.

    "an initiative to reduce Ferrari's carbon footprint and give it a better standing with all the performance-hating treehuggers out there."???


    What a stupid fucking idea. Seriously, they hate you and everything you stand for. GET OVER IT. They aren't worth your time, nor do they have your vision. FUCK THEM. Besides cars don't have footprints. Weight reduction for speed and performance is fine, but to do it for "environmentalism" is the lamest excuse to actually produce a Ferrari. Don't make your cars for the haters, make them for the lovers.

    Four of them, to be exact... the tire footprint, the threshold of grip.


    You're on the right track, but missed the mark.

    I'm Mille Chile the exotic.

    I shake until I'm cold.

    My head is hot and my feet are cold.

    Ha...Hee...Hachoo!

    Now what about the Lamborghinis along the river Reno?

    I'll bet they're always warm as toast.

    They always seem to smile.

    I'm always Mille Chilly.

    I'm frozen through and through.

    My nose is red and my tale is told.

    I thought most of those Italian runway models were well under 1,000kg. That's an awful lot of pasta.


    Still, I'm wondering if the university is accepting applications from depression-wracked gearheads?

    ePRS (patent pending) translation:


    Taking a page from the GM playbook (GMI), Ferrari announces a new laboratory that just made every car-loving engineer in the world want to return to school. Even if we do have to eat a thousand chilis to get it.


    The focus of the new Mille Chili laboratory will be to study ways to bring Ferrari to new levels of awesome and, hopefully, get a 1000 kg (2200 lb.) car developed so the treehuggers will leave the Prancing Stallion alone. Got that Greenpeace?

    Cool, I'm glad to know it wasn't just me. It wasn't showing my latest post (hence the double post), I could see that posts had been commented in, but could not see the comments, and I could not edit my handle. That last part is still an issue, as now different comments of mine have different handles.


    At first I thought maybe I had been banned, but now my posts are showing up again, so I guess not...
