Ferrari Mailing List: ...of Ferrari's and dresssing well....

[Gavin (gavinnz]

Something odd has happened.... I have paid 87% of my first Ferrari... a 1978 
308GTB I am yet to pick up.... but for the first time in my life (at age 38) 
I am looking seriously at how I dress and present myself!

I think it's because I am getting a car to "live up to".... lol.
Funny thing is I have driven my Rolls Royce for 4 years and never given it a 
second thought.

I have this theory...
Rolls Royce cars I associate with English excentrics... driving their cars 
to market with their wellington boots on etc... so when I leap out of my 
Rolls Royce in town in shorts, t-shrit and no shoes (it's warm here) I don't 
feel out of place...

BUT, I think I defiantly WOULD feel out of place doing that in the 
Ferrari... I think it's because I associate the Ferrari with Italian 
style....
So a total image upgrade is on the cards... clothes for the Ferrari... lol

Sorry for the ramdom message, but I finding this a fasinating and totally 
unexpected side effect of buying the car:))

Anyone else had any thoughts like this... or is it JUST me?
