Tons of Exotics in Toronto (Ferraris!!!)

Well - I knew what you were asking - and I told you what it does...

The driver knob rotates freely to the left or right while the digital temp is shown on the A/C display - left cooler/right warmer...

The driver chooses the desired temp - then the passenger uses their dial to choose a warmer of coller temp using the drivers as a base...

So - yes, the driver gets digital readout and establishes the base temp, and the passenger selects a relative warmer/cooler setting using centre-reference calibrated knob.

As I say - you eventaully get bored of bike sounds

lol, if you think a ferrari V8 sounds like a straight 4 bike engine then i think theres something wrong with you....

oh, and put your knob away RC

Actually - due to firing order and crank orientation among other things, a Ferrari V8 does sound like 2, 4 cylinders - and hence like a high RPM motorcycle engine..

You need to get out more.

lol, you don't need to know anything about engines and firing orders to know they don't sound the same.

i don't know, i might be quite wrong, but if i revved my 1.2 clio straight 4 to relatively high rpms, say 7000 just for arguements sake (which incedently has similar firing orders and crank orientation as a ferrari V8), i'm pretty sure it won't sound like a ferrari V8, or a bikes straight 4 which it is more closely related.....

oh, n by the way I get out enough mate. No need to comment on my social life, it's good enough for me

ROTFLMMFARTFO.... dude.. dude.. dude... you are really dillusional if you at all ever think a 1.2 Clio, revved to any level could sound remotely ANYTHING like big bore motorcycle engine.

Ever.

Ever.

You need to actually go see a real opne class bike - go ride it and stand around when one wails past.



AFter you have actually experienced both in person we can continue this discussion..

[nurbrun]

This topic has turned into a argument about the 360 being better then the Z06 or somthing like that.(lost track a few pages back ) who really cares, everyone has there own opinion

lol, thats what i was saying...... i said it wouldn't sound anything like it, thats my point. I was refeering to my clio because it has the same layout and similar capacity to a superbike yet it sounds nothing like it. You were saying because a motorbike engine and the ferrari V8 have simllar firing order and crank rotation that they sound alike.... they do not

I've witnessed a 360 and a GSXR 1000 drag in front of me at a motorshow one after another and trust me, the difference in sound is very different. Please read what i say before commenting on it....

lol, i take on board your comments and you've proven me wrong in some instants and i admitted it, but you just always have to be right dont you?

i'm zipped i've think i've learnt never to argue with RC45, you can't win even if you are right or have the prefferable opinion

In this case your're wrong though.. Perhaps you are rather tone deaf and miss the finer points of really loud noise..

The Ferrai V8 is 2 inline 4's by the way..

Oh - and I have provided some more food for thought - about the poor performance of the F360..

Thanks nurbrun for the pics, they look awesome, every classic ferrari such as the testarossa and, the 348, and other beautiful cars always will be welcome for me, as it was commented already, im another fan of the 348( im a ferrari compact fan mostly, thats why i like the 288 GTO most), and the black 348 looks fascinating as a result
