BTW, I thought the 1 Series Bimmers are shit and unsurprisingly they are.
We don't have a thread for that flavour yet.

Ferrari 400
I was surprised that up close these are such good looking cars. Beautiful quality interior, a really nice place to be. Not particularly fast by modern standards or probably even the standards of the time but a relaxing tourer.

I thought they were better than the 3 series of the same age, only because they are exactly as shit but cheaper.

Re: Cars that I thought would be shit but weren't.
You gotta be fucking joking.
Were they also available with ivory trim and a colour called Colonial something?
Actually, I'd like the Kaffir Edition, now that I think of it.
