Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Impressions

[Azam, Naweed S (Naweed.Azam]

I guess I just don't get it.  I would always wear my Ferrari Jacket and T-shirt 
and baseball hat when I drove my F355 GTB.  I had the Magnum PI ring tone on my 
cell phone (of course it would have been Miami Vice if I had a Testarossa 
instead).  Wore the clothing and drove the car to Porsche Club and Ferrari Club 
events, grocery shopping, work, kids to school, whatever.  Somebody please clue 
me in on the faux pas I have broken!

Naweed.

I have two rules when it comes to Ferrari badges clothing....
Only ever one thing at a time... hat or shirt or jacket... and never when
driving the Ferrari!

Mostly I wear them in my work van... so people will look and go "yeah right
... like HE could have a Ferrari"

I get a kick out of parking my RR and going to the Post Office.... then
coming back where some people will be looking at it.. and I rock up in a
t-shirt, shorts and no shoes and drive off..... it's classic...

Gavin
