Do You Think This Old Acura Sounds Like A Ferrari? [Video]

The Ferrari F430 is a car you buy for the sound. That wailing V8 is the automotive equivalent of a money shot. Can the inline-four of a third-gen Acura Integra actually ape the Ferrari's killer app? More »

Costs of co-owning a Ferrari F430

Life is full of unattainables. Most of us will never hold the keys to an expansive beach-front property, lounge on our own personal yacht or park a Ferrari in the garage, and for good reason. The very exclusivity of those objects is part of their lure, but a new site looks to change all that. Jointli allows regular Joes and Janes to co-own property, vehicles, boats and more. The site's tools allow users to chose potential co-owners in their area, sign agreements and manage time shares accordingly. So, how much would it conceivably cost to own, say, a Ferrari F430?

It also excludes any unfortunate dings or repairs that may arise as the result of four people who don't know how to drive a Ferrari being tossed the keys.
