Well, shoot...take a big breath and observe breathtaking exhibit 1 (below). For those of you missing the super car flash card pack, that's the '11 Pagani Huayra. Yeah. What's that saying about 1,000 words and a picture and...shoot. The Huayra, as if it matters what something that looks like that can do, makes its smudge to 60 in 3.2 and has a custom AMG V12 engine (P'ani has a working relationship with Daimler, and it appears to be well oiled). The aesthetic four wheeled phenom is composed of carbon fibre (P'ani's signature note) and titanium. Six to one, half dozen to the other...and...alas, all things not being equal: given a titanium choice, I'd take the Huayra over a ring despite the inevitably shortened lifespan. Done and done; was there even a question?
Observe breath-taking exhibit 2, Ferrari's brand spank your a** with a lightning whip new FF. It chokes on an atom of the Huayra's dust and clocks in at 3.7...however, it is four wheel drive. Yes, you can read that line again. (And, it goes without saying, but I just like to say it, it is a Ferrari). Four being the magic number, it comfortably accommodates four in the hug you-rub-you-never-let-you-go leather seats; never-let-you-go being the operative phrase, and this blogger has committed to donating her physical remains to Body Worlds, but would accept being buried in the embrace of the FF which is...of course...the risk of having a car that exceeds 200mph at the slightest suggestion of a sneeze.
The acquaintance of the Huayra and the FF has been made, indeed--charmed, for doubly sure. (Did you notice they're both Italian? Just sayin'...)Life sometimes can be charmed.
Charmed: –adjective
marked by good fortune or privilege
