Great story Rick We are seeing more and more Porsche guys buy late model Ferraris in the Atlanta area While driving to the car show this Sunday I ran into a guy who has just bought his first one
As for the kids It’s was the parents who got the biggest kick out of it I had them take pictures of there kids in the car
The Porsche crowd are closet NAZi’s that’s all Like I tell them when they come over on the sly to look at the car I know why you didn’t buy one It handles!

I've told the story before... When Finny was still alive, we took the Ferrari to a local sandwich shop down the street. It was a 20+ year old car at that point. Some (as Erik would say, Dentist) guy pulls in to the parking lot in a new Porsche GT3 variant, parks across 2 spots 10 feet away. We were the only 3 people eating in the place. Soon after he got his food and sat down, a group of kids came through the parking lot on foot and skateboards. They all stopped to look at the Ferrari. One or two of the kids got really close to the Porsche (while keeping their backs to it... as if it wasn't there). The guy gets up from his table and charges out the door and yells at the kids to stay away from his car. We finished our food and went out another door and as I approached the car with my lovely blonde wife, I just asked how they liked the car... didn't yell at them. Opened the door and said "have a seat"... Finny opened her door and offered the same. Kids had a hoot. Mr. Porsche had gone back in and finished his food and came back out to announce that the kids didn't know their cars very well... "My Porsche could run circles around that old piece of shit".
The kids let him know it didn't matter... THIS was a Ferrari!!
And fuck you, you're an ass.
He's got the hot wife and you're alone, loser. He let us touch his car and even sit in it. I've seen 20 Porsches this week, this is the ONLY Ferrari. You own a Porsche because you can't afford a Ferrari (that was false, but I wasn't going to correct them). As he left, Finny flipped him the bird and all the kids laughed.
I saw one of the kids years later at the gas station... I didn't recognize him but he was probably 6 years older and had his own car then. He recognized me and asked if I still had the Ferrari? Yep, I do. He said he may never have the chance to own a Ferrari, but he will never forget the day he got to sit in one. He said that had been a great day for him! The current day was a great day for me. We always did the same with the race track too. I'd throw kids in the Trans Am cars all the time. They'd come back years later telling their friends they got to sit in THAT car.
It's important to bring them into the fold... They may be the next custodians of our cars.

But I would pay good money to hear a kid point at a McLaren and say “wow, the new Hyundai is cool…"
Ya know – if we brought a $500,000 McLaren or a Veyron or a Jesko – they would NOT have the kiddo eye-popping thrill.
