    It's always good to see people enjoying their cars all year round in Chicago! Looking forward to a fun driving season this year, keep me updated with cruises once the weather gets better again!

    Risky business on their part,name and sign are registered and they expose themselves to costly litigation.
    Ferrari Spa is vicious and known for going after even very small infractions against their interests.
    I would remove that pic ASAP if I were you,all info for Ferrari legal team is here.........

    While I agree that the logo is a direct copy of Ferrari, the owner of the plumbing business is named Wes Ferrari. So at least he has that going for him.

    Can he afford to fight the might of a big corporation like Ferrari that has backing of Fiat/Chrysler?
    Prancing Horse is not helping either.....

    I wouldn't put it past them(Ferrari)to pitch a fit, as if they are being hurt.
    Agreed that pic ought to come down to save this plumber potential grief.

    If someone can remove the post, I don't really care. I don't have the option to remove it.

    Correct, but I don't think "McDonalds Yummy Burgers Inc." is covered by that trademark. I understand where you are going, but that name and the prancing horse is different than the real Ferrari logo. Have you seen Black Horse Trucking (18 wheelers cross country trucks) on the roads? There is what I think the exact cavallino rampante used by Ferrari. That would be a bigger target (deeper pockets) that that plumber.
