    Sounds like he’s going to be too busy dealing with his mid-life heart attack

    Today a guy in a white Tesla pulled up beside me at a stoplight and said: that’s a gorgeous car. How do you like it?

    My reply: it is the most fun l have ever had with my clothes on.

    He says: you need to drive it naked then.

    Me: l would but it is illegal. ;)

    I was approached at a gas station and asked "where did you rent that? My boyfriend has a birthday coming up and he'd love that!"

    I replied "sorry, they only have one and I've got it through the end of the year".

    "Did you get a discount for a long rental like that?"

    I winked and said "boy did i!"


    A few days later, same gas station: "kit cars sure are looking more realistic these days!"


    I decided to try a different gas station.

    The funniest comment I ever received was from someone who thought all Ferrari’s were red. He asked me at a gas station how much it cost to paint my 599 white.

    Drove the 2012 458 Spider to a meeting a couple of years ago. People asked questions like: how much is the annual service?

    I was glad to respond truthfully: it’s free. (Silence)


    Which is true. 2012 was the first year where complimentary service is included for 7 years.

    Had my '84 BBi on an open trailer one day and stopped for gas for my truck. The station attendants friend swore it was a Fiero kit. It wasn't unitl I opened the rear bonnet that he was convinced!

    I say, "I could have spent more on a Corvette." Came up with that when I had my red 456M at an open car show. :)

    get asked about gas mileage a lot;
    I have developed two responses, depending on what the situation calls for and whether I'm gassing up the FF or 430:

    1. "... in a Ferrari we don't measure miles per gallon, we measure smiles per gallon, and I get a lot of them!"

    2. " ... usually I get around 10, but if I really drive the **** out of it, I can get it down to 8!"

    8 mpg for an FF? You're not trying hard enough. You can get it down to 5:D

    My favorite response to the "How much did it cost?" question is to quote the MSRP in $/lb.

    People at the gas station would look at me like I had three heads when I responded, "My car was about $100/lb." :)

    It is interesting about the cost question.
    In my neck of the woods, an honest answer used to be received with an insult or scoff.
    Now I find that people get upset about a B.S answer, but are both relaxed and polite about an honest answer.

    People aren't fools, many have an idea about its actual price. Occassionally, some will say that they actuslly thought it might be a bit more.

    I was asked a while back “Why would you drive a Ferrari to the grocery store?”

    I replied “Because it’s too far to walk.”
