    I use my 2014 Cali as my DD. Stopped at a red light top down on a magnificent day a middle age gentlemen driving a Hugh pickup truck rolled down his window and ask
    "Is that a Ferrari California". To which I answered yes. His next comment was
    " I have a video game where I race one but I did not know they really existed"

    Was at a gas station filling up a couple of week ago. A young guy walks over, says hi and proceeds to tell me that he doesn't like driving Ferrari's "they are boring, my dad has had lots of them". "Everyone has different tastes in cars" I responded in as nice a way as I could. He then explained that "the Ferrari 928 was the worst". I just gave him a puzzled expression.

    Another time at the same place a sweet little old lady came over and asked me "what car is that"? A Ferrari I said. She paused for a second then responded "oooh, that's what one looks like, sure is pretty, would you take my photo next to it", and hands me her phone. I obliged :)

    I agree with Tom that's a priceless one………………………………...
    Was the gentleman's skin color green ? If yes you'll have to forgive him because he's not from this planet and probably just arrived from Mars…..

    Go figure. Every time you think you have seen all manner of stupidity, something new comes along.

    Jason, Ferraris have such an influence on people that sometimes they get mixed up. Thank god that the your guy's worst was not a Ferrari but a Rariporsche……………….
