    Whenever I got this type of question, I reply asking "are you from the IRS?" (or the local equivalent)

    I had a couple guys sitting out on the sidewalk while I locked my 328 with the top off.
    They asked, "why lock it with the top off?".
    I told them "it activates the alarm". ;)

    (It was that part of town. But that's where the used computer parts store was.)

    Today something happened for the first time.

    I was near my home an turned right. A huge pick up truck stopped in front of me. It is a narrow road and l could not get around. Then a huge dump truck pulled up behind me. Nowhere to go. The guy in the pick up got out and came over to my car and said: l want to buy a car like yours. Can you give the number of where l can get one?

    I gave him the number of Ferrari of
    Denver. He said thanks very much and drove off.

    Should l get a piece of the commission on this deal? Lol

    Sounds like he was going to car jack you but he saw the dump truck after he got out.

    I don’t think so. He had a dog in the cab that looked the the dog named Enzo in the movie The Art of Driving Fast in the Rain.

    I can finally contribute to this thread.

    Moved to the North Carolina and took out the 458 Spider for the first time. We had the top up because it was blistering hot. Pulled up to a pretty busy intersection and an older gentleman in a pickup on the passenger side points down at the car and tries to signal us. I roll down the window and he says, while pointing to the right front tire, "You're tire is low" in grungy southern accent. I didn't notice anything strange with the car and then went to the tire sensor screen and everything was normal. We went on our way when the light changed and the car was driving normally. As we sped away it hit us that he had likely never seen such low profile tires on a car before. Ha!

    Manager of the Starbucks told me that’s really a nice car. I would like to get one. (458 Spider).

    I said you could or you could buy a house. But l think you should buy the car.

    Why? She asked. I said you can live in a car but you can’t drive a house.

    The next day l saw she said I am tired. I wish l was home.

    So l said if you lived in your car you would practically be home right now. :)

    I was at the gas station today and a guy drove by with his son in the car. Saw my car, stopped, rolled down the window, and the following conversation happened.

    Him: “Nice car! What is it?

    Me: “Thank you, I love it... it’s a Ferrari.”

    He turns to his teenage son and says...

    “Look! Just like James Bond used to drive!!”

    ...and then drove off...

    Thanks.
    In some ways it reminds me of my old 124 Sport Coupe.

    Awhile back I was in the 355, stopped at a crosswalk in a NH backwater town. One late-teen/early-20's kid in the group who were crossing got excited, pointed at the car and gave a thumbs up; as I drove past he yelled after me "ANY RUST?!"

    Haven't gotten any stink-eye yet, most people give a thumbs up and nice things to say, but that one was odd.

    I wish I could find a good one now.
    My 71 sealed its fate when it died once too often and under suspicious circumstances.
    My wife did not appreciate having to fetch me on a cold December night.
    Particularly since it crapped out in front of a strip club.

    My favorite story was not driving any of my Ferrari’s, but my Aventador. I pulled into the Cheesecake Factory with my girlfriend. The parking lot was completely full and there was obviously a wait. She decided that she would hop out and get in the line while I waited for a parking space (some people were getting into their car, but they were moving slowly). My girlfriend got into line behind a couple guys. One of them tapped the other to turn around and said, “wow, check out that Lamborghini!” The other guy said, “that’s a kit car, and you know only an a-$hole would drive a kit car.” My girlfriend couldn’t help herself. She told them, “that’s not a kit car, but he is an a-$hole.”
