Haha, well at least your posts are good for comic relief. One chance to make a first impression, eh? How's this for a first impression:

Oh yeah, I forgot that most Ferrari fanboys, as you put it, conveniently don't remember any of those "goods being delivered, over and over", as you succinctly put it. I bet that guy is glad his radio is functioning.
Here are more goods, as delivered by your beloved Italians, with the links for your own perusal. You'll see that I don't have to label the 458 as a FAILURE. Enough disappointed 458 owners took care of that on ferrarichat already after taking delivery of their obviously flawless and emotionally perfect stallion.

And who cares about Ferrari's deceptions? I do and I doubt that I am alone. Maybe you assume that I only care because I'm a McLaren customer. If so, you have the cause and effect relationship backwards. One of the reasons that I am a McLaren customer is because I'm tired of Ferrari's ways.
Still not sure what your motivations are to be here - but let's see what else you've got. You should be thanked, really, as every time you come back to this forum trolling for an argument, you provide the opportunity for more people to learn about the real truth of these matters.
