Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Question

[Douglas Anderson (dnt]

Hmmmm – yeah.  Either a 550 or 575.  AND . . .  no one bothers you in a gas station while refueling.  You could even refuel at Costco without a hassle.  A subtle, fast, Ferrari.  And by the time you start the engine?  Why you’re gone.  I’d have to go Euro – as we saw in Italy.  No markings on any top end car.  Keeps kidnapping problems down.  Good one Erik.

I think you may be able to get a 575 for the price of a new F150 these days.

There is a downside to Ferrari ownership if your position at work is plebian:

 

Green eyed jealous back stabbing sycophants who whisper in bosses ears your obvious snootiness.

 

NO one understands that you can buy a pretty decent, but old Ferrari, for the price of a new Toyota pickup truck.

 

On the other hand, pick up a new Tesla Founders Series Roadster and the neighbors say – “oh . . . .  a Tesla . . .  how cute.”

 

But those green eyed bastards at work . . . I kept our 308 new ownership mum, ‘ceptin for a few close gear head friends who referred to as “the Fiat.”
