    Just got this email from Ferrari. It says, in part,

    Sorry, but it sounds communistic to me. Report your neighbor and get a reward.

    They sound like the kind of asswipes who would sue a long-standing charity to steal their name.

    One time, my horse got up on his hind legs and posed exactly like the emblem for a minute. I freaked out and told him to stop it. Thank God he did before anyone saw him. Whew!

    Hummm…I wonder if I should turn in my old high school?; Known as the Havre Blue Ponys. Clearly they are in violation of Ferrari’s over reach. Get a grip you turds.

    I think it’s a good thing what they’re doing, I hope it can help get rid of all the replica cars out there, those replica cars just give Ferrari a bad image

    I got that too. It was good for a laugh. Very few things I give less of a **** about in this world. Curious about what the "reward" would be though with their cheap asses.

    I just read my email and came on here to see the response. From the company that gives us cars with sticky interiors and 1500 dollar optional cruise control, I'm really supposed to care about their brand? What an arrogant email to send out.

    Ferrari will then reward any valid violation information received.

    I turned in the Ferrari Online Store.

    And you would have gotten away with it too -- if only you hadn't confessed, in writing !! :)

    They give the owners of these replicas a bad image.

    But why would they fake owning something they don't? Is not owning a ferrari the end of the world?

    Recall Al Pacino in "Scent of a Woman" and addressing the Headmaster of the Baird School....

    Email to Enrico:

    Enrico,

    Exactly what is my reward for turning in my China friends who make things for Ebay and Amazon? What I want to make sure of you aren't handing out gift cards to buy that hideous clothing you sell that "represents today's society values". It is complete crap and it frankly is embarrassing that it carries the Ferrari name.

    https://store.ferrari.com/content/images/cms/ycm/resource/blob/767564/6a110462346c7be638948925aa5c4931/middlebanner-2x2-03uomoss241-data.jpg/w1024.jpg


    Now .....since you are the Commercial and Marketing Officer......what I could really use:

    -Free Engine out Service
    -Free De-sticky Service
    -Free Classique Certification
    -Ferrari suite at all 2025 F1 races.

    The price for loyalty is high.

    Best,

    JD

    I was playing off the letter you posted by suggesting a response to Enrico. Off course you could write your own response but I thought I would draft one for you.....;)

    No worries. I have it on very good authority that Ferrari and FNA monitors all web media. So, your message may already have been received.

    Excuse me, someone is at my front door....:eek::eek:The Thought Police:D

    Personally I don’t lose sleep about counterfeit toys. Like fake Rolexes or handbags, (heck even kit cars.). Folks that *really* care will know if it’s fake anyway.
