I can understand how a casual observer wouldn't give my FC a second glance and that is the whole reason I have it. I have attended open track days with my FC and its set up to run hard and fast. My car sits in the pits before the 1st run group and no one gives it a second look. After the first run group I am being visited by lots of other drivers wanting to know whats up with the car.
It weighs 2500 lbs and has 460HP. It has upgraded brakes and a fully adjustable suspension. I runs the 1/4 mile in the low 11 second range and out handles Factory Five Cobras. The only thing limiting this car is my abilities. It is much more car than I am driver.
As for the guy with the Ferrari who complains about his RX-7's head gasket blowing a lot?? I am speechless. He obviously doesnt know cars.
Dont get me wrong. I LOVE Ferraris!! If I had money to burn I would park one in the garage next my my RX-7 without a doubt. But, I have to be realistic. While I could arrange my finances to afford one but could I care for it? I would imagine upkeep is a bitch for one of them.
