    This past weekend, I was running around in the car. As I approached an intersection, the light turned red, so I came to a stop. A little old lady (late 60's) started to walk slowly across the street. When she got to my car, she stopped, turned and facing my car, she bent over and looked at the logo. All of a sudden a big smile came over her face. And as she raised up, she gave me a thumbs up sign. Made my day.

    That is nice. Who knows, your car may have brought back some Ferrari memory for her from long ago. In any event I'll bet she mentioned seeing your car to someone else later that day, with a smile on her face.

    Great story. No doubt it rekindled a memory - possibly even one including that very model.

    If there's a joke there, I don't get it.
