Good weather will bring out the nice cars. My neighbor in the Tuscan style house on the corner has had both his Carrera GTS and the Saleen Mustang out already. I expect to see the Ferrari 308GTB Quatrovalvole out soon. This is the car he bought sight unseen off the Ferrari Market Letter. He had it delivered, and it wouldn't start when it arrived. I was still somewhat mobile then, so I spent an afternoon tracing out the problem. Turned out to be the cheap-s**t Fiamm relay for the starter fuel pump. The car has two fuel pumps. It uses both for cold start, and drops one out once the engine warms up. He has since had the car completely gone through and got it back in November.
This is really getting to be exotic car city. I need to spend some nice days sitting on the front steps with my cell phone.
