[DeTomaso] NPC, Countach->Ferrari

[michael frazier]

Try this on for size...
 
There is a lot of hate and trash talk here for other brands and their owners.
 
That said, I'd bet that a majority of Pantera owners would drop their cars in a moment to trade for a nice Fcar or Lambo.  Not that 
they would admit it here.
 
I think it would be depend on whether or not they work on their own cars...the guys who do their own wrenching would keep the Pantera.
Just some miscellaneous ramblings on a quiet afternoon.

They said the restaurant owner said it was okay, but that's never really okay. Someone saw what was going on, and called the news and police pronto.
