Funniest/Stupidest comments you have received about your Ferrari

Hah. I've had the other issue: someone asking what an "old guy" was doing with an EVO.

 

Other day at my gas station...

Lady "what kind of car is that? a Ferrari?"

Me "Its a Ford Mustang"

It's an 86' in a total shroud of Guard Red.

From a distance....in a snow storm....with cataracts....and a half case of beer. It could be mistaken as a F-Car.

 

First one, 10+ years ago in my 78 308 GTS, parked in a Schucks Auto Parts parking lot, idling, getting ready to back out, and two guys in a Mazda 323 pull up and the driver says "is that a kit car? and I respond "yup, it's a Fiero" and his buddy in the passenger seat slugs him in the shoulder and scolds him: "I told you!" lol


Second: Stopped at a light in my F355 spider and these two nice, little old ladies cross the street admiring the car and one says "what a pretty Mustang you have"....and I smile and say "thank, it's actually a Ferrari"..and she covers her mouth and says "oh my, I'm sorry...." and I laughed and said "no problem!"

Third: I was driving through the Pike Place Market (lots of traffic so I am crawling along), and some young "street kid" yells out to no one in particular "fake Ferrari!".....then walks along me and says "nice fake Ferrari!"...then passes to the rear..."nice fake Ferrari...oh wait...maybe it's not fake..."

Fourth: I am driving into Pike Place Market and some guy shouts out "hey it's Ichiro!" and again, because of traffic I am crawling along, trying to find a parking spot (I visit my buddy's pasta bar in the market often) and people run up taking pictures of the car and me...then some guy asks "are you really Ichiro?" and I say "sorry, I'm nobody..." and he says "but the car..." and I retort "okay, I'm nobody with a nice car.." lol

 

I am the only customer in a donut shop with the 360 parked out front and a guy walks in talking to no one in particular and says, "How much to rent one of them for a weekend?"

I said, "I wouldn't know..that one (pointing) is paid in full"

He didn't say anything else!!!

 

When I went for a drive yesterday (it was 61F and sunny), at the gas station a guy came up and asked me, "What kind of gas mileage do get?" I replied, " I really don't know."

"You probably don't care. I wouldn't. Beautiful car," was his reply.

 

Last year I saw a 599 parked in front of cafe when a father and son walked past the father says"nice Maserati" the kid who I'm assuming was probably 10yo quickly yelled "THATS A FERRARI DAD!"

Gave me a chuckle, good to know the youngins of today still know their cars

 

Carload of girls behind me yell "Wanna have sex in your car?" That was fun.

 

Answer: "Sure, but only if we can do so without ruining the Connoly leather." (...and only if they're cute.)

 

I was fueling up at a gas station across the street from the Lambo dealer and a service department guy from the dealership asked me if I purchased my Fcar from their Lambo dealership...

 

Best comment so far

 

It's a donkey

 

Funny thread

I was getting gas last weekend and had a guy ask me how long it took to built it and if I had to invest in any special tools.... obviously though my 355 was a kit car.

I was in kind of a smart-ass mood so I said "about 2 months and the Ferrari factory provided me with all the tools"

He walked away somewhat confused....

 

What was fun ? the sex ? or the question ?

details...

 

I have two,

Dumb [when I owned the 456GT]: "Is that the new Mustang"...high school kid.

Funny [360 Modena]. With my wife in the car, a SUV with 4 or 5 young girls...20's, pulls along side me at a light and one moderately drunk young lady asks me. "Do I look hot to you?" Well the official answer was, slight smile and shake of the head (not yes, not no kind of way). Brain answer was, YES !!

Comment to wife, "glad it was not our daughter."

Lol...that's good.

 

Yesterday my girlfriend and I were out in my boxer, and at the stoplight, an older gentleman pulled up next to us in his pickup. He said- "That's a nice car, but it needs a big hood ornament. You should put a dinosaur on it, that would look cool." At that point, we said "thanks", and drove away, all of us laughing our tails off.

 

A few years ago it was a nice sunny summer day in Evergreen. We parked the red 355 F1 GTS on the street. My wife and I were sitting at an outdoor table and we could see the car. A young girl was on the sidewalk and said to her girlfriend, "God, I wonder who owns that car. I'd like to screw his brains out." My wife hit me on the arm and said, "Better not." She was not kidding.

I am glad she only hit me on the arm.

 

It IS true!!

 

Yep.

Of course if the girl in question had seen me she would have changed her mind...old enough to be her father. LOL

 

Doubt that would've mattered.

 

I was 35 and had two young girls hit on me on a Publix parking lot while I was walking to the Gallardo. They looked at me up and down and one said "I could make love to this car all day long", the other replied, "aha, anytime". So then they asked some random questions about the car, me etc... Then asked if both could sit in the car for a ride, "lets go to your house and hang out, you got beer? Let's go and hang out, we see you all the time and know where you live"... So I asked them their ages and they told me 16. I told them that as soon as they turn 18 to knock on my door!!!

 

you guys piss me off...how come i never run into these girls lol. great story!

 

Who, the girl or your wife?

 

I've had these 2:

Is that a kit car? You can't tell the difference between the two.

Must be terrible in the snow.

 

I think I related this somewhere else, but the little old lady who lives next door to my parents asked, in order:

So, the motor's in the back?

You have to put the groceries up front, then?

So, if there's no room up front either, you just have to use the back seat, huh?

Well, how's it do in the snow?




And, from a friend who actually knows quite a bit about cars, but only American ones:

"Didn't some Ferraris come with a Ford engine?"
