Unfortunately, quite a slowpoke.

Story was that he was in a convoy with some cars, got separated, did a u-turn somewhere, rushed back, and suddenly a viva or something in front of him braked hard and he collected them. Suspected robbery attempt, I believe.

It's the condensed version of the blog story.
He was convoying with a few Ferraris, made an error and got separated. So he sped up to do a u-turn, where presumably he got spotted in the outgoing direction. After the u-turn, he was stated to have been doing 140-150kmh when the Viva in front suddenly hit the brakes, and yes he did collect/hit them as he tried to avoid them and also hit something else too I think.

Later it said that the Viva had three male occupants, and when the rest of the convoy caught up with the Lambo, the Viva's occupants made a call to one of their brothers, who just so happened to be on the other side of the road on in the opposite direction, probably the spotter. Therefore they have reason to believe that it was an attempted robbery, it was just that the Viva didn't expect to be hit at that speed, they probably thought he'd slow down and bump into them lightly (although if I were in a Viva, the last thing I'd want is anyone bumping into me from behind). The cop who took the report down apparently also said he thought it was an attempted robbery.

Don't really know for certain if that's 100% the whole story, it's what I got from reading that blog entry.

Also, thieves suck and should have their hands removed. Really.

Well,this car attend the Pavilion Big Breakfast happened back in February.
This is my rough guess from the picture as it is not very clear but i can make it out it have a Wxx 355 plate and perhaps a GTS roof(black top).
GTB=Hard Top
GTS=Removable Top(Could be black/body colour/carbon fiber)
Spyder=Well self explain
I prefer F355 over F430/360 biggrin.gif

ah! i am also aware of the difference between the GTB and GTS; that small patch of removable fabric is a little pointless to me, but then my opinion doesn't count as i'm not in the market for one tongue.gif

however, i do think the F430 has moved forward much more than the F360 did (at least against the F355).

Lately I've been seeing a yellow coloured Wxx 355 Ferrari F355 GTS (sory can't remember the alphabets). He has a friend who stays at my condo Casa Damansara 2 PJ and always come to fetch him. I've seen his friend in the elevator and the car waiting for him at the lobby. Both guys looked around mid 30. The F355 owner apparently hangs out at Tropicana City Mall quite frequently with some of his other Ferrari friends. Will prepare my camera next time!

actually they were going for bak kut teh in old klang road. lambo owner made a wrong u turn, had to make another round to catch up with the rest. met the viva on the way. and thats bout it. except nobody mention the vivas friend who crashed his car while on the way to the accident place?

imho , not a good thing to post the picture with the number plate.
thats my 2 cents
