    This new girl I met or actually am going out with who is a total knockout blonde if it matters to the story told me a story of a guy recently claiming to own a 360 parked out front of a club, he was pointing out the car to her and said it was his talking about it and such, then right in front of them both the real owner hopped in and took off, she said she had a big laugh at him and walked off, talk about owned!

    Too bad for him as she likes Ferraris and probably would have gone for a ride with him if he was for real.

    That episode was hilarious, liked the part where whats his name told Joey it looked like a Porsche threw up on him with all his Porsche gear, hat, jacket and other items on.

    I had the reverse happen. For about 3 weeks I was in charge of a 360 Spyder owned by a friend and despite all my protests to the contrary everyone I ran into thought it was mine. It's been 5 months and everyone in my building is like, "where do you keep the car nowadays?"

    What an idiot! What would he have done if she said, "let's go to your room" or something? "Ok sure, but I think I'm going to leave the 360 here and we can go in my pontiac". How did he think he would get away with that at all

    Well sort of not qute a ferrari but its rival.

    I remember back in my last year of highschool I saw my first real Diablo, It was red and was owned by Mario Andretti. I took pictures of it and with me standing next to the car and such.

    There was a girl that i had a serious crush on but she didn't like me very well and made my last year of school a living hell. I got my revenge, as soon as I got my pictures back, man I was walking around saying thats my gradutation present and I would be getting a Lamborghini, She didn't believe me until I got the pictures out and she couldn't believe it, her face was in total disbelief. With me standing next to the Diablo and me sitting inside of it and also it was taken in a housing area i mean it looked real.

    I said how do you like me now!.

    Also all those bullys who claim they owned Skylines but didn't have proof, I made them look like a bunch of idiots when I showed them the pictures of me standing next to the Diablo and said it was mine. I was the big talk at my school just before the end of the school year, I was getting phone numbers from diffrent girls(I Never called them back) people wanted to be my friend and also where fallowing me home from school and most important nobody was no longer trash talking to me, I basicly gained all the respect and fame overnight at that school those last days I was there. The hole thing ended after gradutation.

    Just this morning I was putting gas in my 400i and a friend (who I don't think knows about the Ferrari, I don't exactly broadcast it around) was driving by and asked me what I was doing. I told him that I was watching it for someone and he said, "That's great, I get to watch other people's dogs and you get to watch other people's Ferraris!".

    I had a good chuckle over that one.

    Once at hooters, the guys 2 tables over were telling the girls that the ferrari outside was theirs. I happened to have known for a fact that it was not theirs because it was mine. I was like, what a group of idiots. But who am I to judge their game.

    at work people know i spend way too much time on this site but no one knows i own a ferrari. so we were talking about stuff and as the conversation turned to this site, i said "ferraris aren't as expensive to own as you might think...i have two." no one believed me. i didn't reinforce it, but my coworkers thought i was kidding. oh well. :)

    OKay I got some more details on the story, she was with her sister and the pretend owner was talking about the 360 explaining details about the car then the real owner walks up the to the 360 and begins to get in the car, her sister yelled out, "Someone is stealing your Ferrari!" then the pretend guy says, "well you got me" then they just walked away from him laughing.

    How about those that spend way to much time on this site that don't own a Ferrari and never did?

    Can you imagine making in excess of 8,000 posts on this site and they don't even own a Ferrari?? What's up with that?

    My guess is Porsche/Kia owners wantobe's
