    Hey ya'll.

    I am a long time Ferrari fan. I worked around them in the northern Chicagoland(Lake Forest Sportscars) area when I turned 16 and continued working with them when I moved out to Arizona a few years later.

    ANYWAY...

    In Arizona we sold an F-50 to some lucky guy and I'm sure you all know that you got a custom pair of shoes when you purchased one. I ended up snagging the shoe box because I thought it was pretty cool. It's been sitting in my closet for years and I thought I would pass it along to someone who might want a cool little item like this. It would be a shame to just throw it out.

    If anyone is interested, make me an offer. If this is posted in the wrong area, I apologize.

    Also, I'll be uploading some pictures of a 250GTO that was seized by US Customs and kept in a warehouse in Arizona. We would have to show it to agents and start it up for them every two weeks to show they we weren't selling parts off of it. Pretty cool.

    Anyway, Thanks!

    Another great part of this F-50 story...

    Ferrari wouldn't sell you an F-50 unless you already owned a Ferrari. The guy who wanted the F-50 didn't have one so he bought an F512M that we had in the showroom and then ordered the F-50.

    Also, I had to basically teach the guy how to drive stick.

    If thats true, then you should've kept the box and shoes. Then switch them with a pair of Reeboks with Ferrari stickers on them......he probably wouldn't have known the difference.
