The greatest of the greatest cars


There are so many cars and there are so many makes of cars... but we are talking about... the Ferrari... no not just a red and fast car... this is more than a car, this is the Ferrari F40. Who would not want to have that kind of car? To drive fast on the street... This car say: "You have to have me, right!!!"

The Ferrari F40 was the most literal sense designed as the successor to the company's GTO super - car, but the project's meaning ran deeper. The 90-years-old Enzo Ferrari was keenly aware that his life was coming to as end. As a result, he wanted a new pet into the pipelines, something that could the world of company's capabilities as a manufactures as well as provide both a competitor to Porcshe 959. The plan was simple- to create a vehicle that combined the company's best technologies into a no - frills sports car that would come as possible to being a full race vehicle, while still retaining the necessary equipment to be a street-legal product. It was the last car to be commissioned be Enzo himself before his death.

Who would not want to have the last Enzo's car? I was 5 years old, when I first sow this car on a poster. Since then I am dreaming for it. So what is the conclusion - even the kids like it. Another example is that my 2-years-old brother is playing with the toy Ferrari F40 and this is his favorite toy, but wets go back to the car.

The F40 was the first road legal production car to break the 200 mph (over 320 kph) barrier. In 2004 F40 was at number five on the list of "Top Sports cars of the 1980s" made by Sports Car International and at the list of the "Greatest Ferrari's of all times" F40 was at number ten.

But the big question is "What is the prise of this great car?", and so hear is the answer: " The price is between 300,000$ and 450,000$!!! WOW!!!"

And just because there are 1315 cars in the hall world. Now when you know this do you want more this car? No, wait, there is something else, the company "Ferrari" have to invade you to buy this car. You have to be a loyal customer to buy this super - car. So, you have to be a loyal customer, you have to be super rich or to be really lucky someone to make a present - Ferrari F40.

Those, who said Ferrari is not a good car, we can say to them that they have to be total idiots not to like this company or this car. Now when you know more about it do you want it more, cause I want it. Here is what said a man who has that kind of car: "I actually like more the F40 than the F50. I remember that it was a period, when Shell Gas stations were given Ferrari toy cars depending on how much gas you were buying. I had a yellow F40 and i liked it really much. This car remains a truly symbol for Ferrari’s capabilities of producing very beautiful and powerful cars."

We have to mansion that there are a lot of toys Ferrari F40 all around the world. But they are in different colors. I mean there are pink and black, and orange, and blue, etc. Why they make them in that colors? Ferrari and especially F40 must be in red or, I'm saying again or yellow. Actually there are a few yellow Ferrari. Most of them are red, isn't this greats? I actually have ones sow a Ferrari, it was in Sofia, and at first I was far away of it and I thought:"Oh, what a color, this must be Ferrari!"

And in a conclusion we have to say again that this is the greatest car of all times! If you have to chain to drive it or even to see it you must be very luck man or woman!

Third in the World!

www.sport1.bg

Our national men's volleyball team continued its way in the world championship. It has only lost two matches. The first one was against Brazil, which didn't reflect on their participation and the and the other one was against Poland in the semi-finals. Despite this, they got the bronze. Now, team, we start keeping our fingers crossed for you for the next world championship (although you don't need this).

In one of their last matches they defeated France, it was a kind of rematch, because in the European championship we again were undefeated and then France put an end to this beautiful tale. It was expected, maybe, because we underrated them. But it was different this time! We started bad, the game wasn't going well and the score was 2:0 France. This was their time to be happy in this match. They were almost winners, but then they had an unbelievable loss of 2:3. Our boys showed how professionally they can play, and what an unbending spirit they have. They can play, and play beautiful games, but to reach finals in the next world championship they have to believe, just believe in their abilities. They mustn't give up when things don't go well, because nothing is lost until the last signal. They have to devote themselves to the game, inside them must be a will.

Bulgaria is a small country, but it has its traditions in different sports, including volleyball. Throughout the years we have proved ourselves to the world. The "biggers" have noticed us and now we are real opponents to them.
