    So the best one. Not in a Ferrari but years ago I was in a 07 Shelby GT/SC at a stop light in Seattle windows down. Car had been modded for track days with a reasonable exhaust noise too.

    Guy pulls up in full bike outfit on a very expensive looking road bike.

    Bike guy: “Fancy car, it’s loud” (in that whiny ass so annoyed passive aggressive Seattle middle aged bike man in spandex voice)

    Me: “Thanks I love your tight spandex, hawt!”

    Bike guy: “I bet you waste a lot of gas with that thing”


    Me: “Man you’re so right but really you should see my yacht go through it now that’s something”

    I then turned off the traction control and did a burn out solidly all the way across the intersection leaving my new friend in a cloud of tire smoke.

    Then there was the time I allegedly bounced a full big gulp cup off of a pedestrians head. That was the old me though I am much calmer now. Haha

    First time my 35 year old son drove the car, he said
    "Dad, that's the only car I have ever driven that made my d*ck hard."
    And he has driven quite a few muscle/exotic cars.

    My 812 Sf was getting wrapped with protective film.

    A random guy that works in a store next to the detail shop walks in and asks the owner if he can come in and check out the cars.

    Owner says “sure!”

    I am standing around, admiring from a distance, my new 812 sf.

    I hear the random guy ask the owner, while looking at my 812sf, “is that a corvette?”

    I almost choked the guy!!

    I live in a semi-rural suburb. I pull up to a light with the 360 Spider top down, and a lady in her late 60's says:

    Lady: That is a beautiful car. Is that a Ferrari?
    Me: Yes. I'm impressed you knew that.
    Lady: What is a Ferrari doing in this town?
    Me: Well, I live here, so the car is here with me.
    Lady: *smiles* Well enjoy that drive.
    Me: Yes, m'am. I always do.

    The first day I had my 360 I drove it to work. The janitor walked up to me as I was standing behind the car and said, "Nice Mustang". I replied, "I'm just curious, why did you call it a Mustang" to which he replied, "Because of the horse". What's funny is that I didn't have plates on the car yet, it had a plastic insert that said "Ferrari of San Francisco". The license plate frame said "Ferrari of San Francisco". And above the horse was the chrome "Ferrari" emblem. But hey, the horse!

    I work in Construction, and you probably won't be surprised how many construction people are also car-guys. I'm careful about who I talk to about it, but most are very appreciative of the car, and they understand the passion. However; there's invariably the client who says "I guess we're paying you too much", or the supplier who says "I guess I need to raise my prices". It happens occasionally, and is almost always followed by a "just kidding man. Seriously: what'd you pay for that thing?"

    Jag— I understand, I work in oil business and last year oil went negative, stock prices tanked... and oil co’s had massive layoffs.... no driving a Ferrari to work to say the least.....

    —-

    I do get the occasional sedan full of high school kids — w the loud one waving and yelling rev it! Rev it! Biggest animated look on their faces..... not sure if they are joking or serious but I’ll give a courtesy rev either way.

    Guy: "nice mustang! Is that the new one?"
    Wife hits guy in arm and says, "that's a Ferrari 360 idiot!".
    Me: smiles

    On pricing, people usually think they are like $200-300k car in my area.

    Had someone say my 360 was worth more than their house, unfortunately they didn't accept the trade offer.

    2nd time I take out my new to me 355.

    I'm at the mall crossing a main door pedestrian cross walk that has a ridiculously high speed bump.

    So I approach it in the classic 45 degree angle method intruding onto oncoming traffic, blocking pedestrians and going like 0.2 mph over this thing.

    I'm stressed, cars are honking, and then this lady as she walks towards the car has lost her patience and says "what a f***kn stupid car".

    The car's ass is about to clear this jump when she decides to scowl and walk behind the car. So I scream out from the window "stupid car huh" as I dip the clutch and rev it to 8 grand. She was dead center behind the car when I did it.

    She was so rattled that she started running and tripped and fell.

    The kids on the sideline loved it, I'd be lying if I said I didn't too.
