The car really needs the power boost IMO. I test drove the Sport and Executive when I was thinking about one, but decided against it. Too underpowered and heard that electronics are terrible. Any truth to this Kid?

Any idea when these may be available for ordering?
Do you know anything about wheel and tires combos? I think one deficiency of the QP is tires too narrow!

What size tires? What brand are your wheels?
Understand about your QP info.

I spoke with ferrari of SF today about the new 08 QP GTS. They confirmed that it will have stiffer suspension , and some exterior mods.(grill, door handles). But that it will have the same 400hp engine.
