    How about all of the above (except the naked option, I'm far too modest)?

    I've worn everything from paint splattered sweats on a run to Home Depot to a nice suit for dinner with my wife.

    It's just a car at the end of the day...

    As for the fabric attire, it's whatever "suits" the occasion, but the shoes must come off - it just feels so good!

    Cheers, Hank

    Absolutely NO Ferrari logos on me when I drive the 360 (I'm usually in A&F with either sandels or prada shoes.. ha.. lol)

    I do sometimes wear Ferrari stuff when driving my non-F-Cars (T-Shirts, Pull-ups or Tank-tops with Ferrari Logo)

    And I do wear a Ferrari Back-pack when I ride my Ducati. :)

    I also have on a Ferrari watch,Ferrari sunglasses, and plenty of Ferrari Cologne.

    When I park I take my Ferrari laptop, Ferrari shopping bag and Ferrari cellphone so everyone knows the Ferrari in the parking lot is mine!

    Anything but Ferrari apparels (the most is a plain shirt with Ferrari logo) when driving my car. I don't like the idea of wearing a Ferrari cap, shirt, shorts, socks, and shoes altogether...but that's me. (No offense intended)

    I'll wear Ferrari shirts usually when I'm taking the car to a show. I like to wear tan pants that are just a bit darker than the cream interior.

    And I have been known to wear a Hawaiian shirt at times. People tend to equate the car with "Magnum P.I." (even though he drove 308s and not a 328) and I figure I can go along with that. (One of my nicknames at work is "Magnum J.P.")

    I really dress like a homeless when I drive my F-car...

    Old T-shirt, short pants, and old sneakers....that's all I usually wear when I drive cars in Thailand.

    I drive naked.. really. You know how it is. A/C isn't so good, Bangkok is so hot. and it's most comfortable to do all kind of manuvores....Ha, Ha, Ha....................I am kidding of course. How did you get the naked for us to vote...lol.
    For whatever I wear, the driving shoes is a must. I, one time, got a call from the repair shop that my car was ready. I was so anxious to pick it up but did not wear driving shoes at the time. So, I went to the shopping mall bought a $200 pair of driving shoes for the occasion.... that's happen to you too Ha.

    I look homeless all the time (Ask Darth, Jerry, Art, Faisal and a few others)! Since I live in Hooterville, I severely dress down. Shorts, company t-shirt, old Rebok's and always a ball cap.

    I'm somewhere between "homeless" and "very casual". I'm usually in jeans, t-shirt, and sneakers in the warmer weather, substituting a sweatshirt in the cooler weather. ....But I checked "Homeless" becuse my entire ensemble comes from LL Bean for less than $80.00. Nowhere near $500.00. I'm so embarassed. :(

    Well, last night I was driving the car dressed as Fred Flintstone! Of course, I was on my way to a Halloween party, haha.

    Actually, I went as Fred's Italian cousin, Federico! (A rented Venetian gondola hat, fake mustache and a Scuderia shield on the tie did the trick.) As I told them, "Fred drives a Honda. I, on the other hand, drive 'la bella macchina'"!

    Oh, and I tried driving the car with flip-flops, but that was an accident waiting to happen. So I drove with sneakers and switched when I got to the party. The way I was dressed, no one had to ask "Who drives the Ferrari"?

    You actually pay more than $110.00 for a suit? Now I feel worse than ever.
