    Saturday, decided to celebrate Father’s Day early to avoid the Sunday restaurant crowd. I picked my dad up in the Ferrari and we did a few activities together and put the car through it’s paces. It was definitely nice to see how much fun my dad was having. He’s almost 70 now and has had some health scares this year. I don’t know how navy more fathers days there will be. I’m definitely grateful that I get to share these moments with him and doing it in a Ferrari makes it so much cooler.

    Would love to hear about other members weekend with their fathers or children.

    My wife doesn't really care, my teenage daughters are embarrassed, and I love it.

    Maybe I'll take my dad (78 yrs) for a ride later.

    good idea!!

    Happy Father’s Day! My father has gone to a better world many years ago and I do not have any children, but I have a Ferrari Cali30 and I definitely drove it again today (that’s my daily driver).

    My dad is in his mid-70s now and a gear head from a young age having built dozens of hot rods over the years, all based on Chevy small blocks.

    To him, the scream of a flat crank is no comparison to the roar of a V8 - but I still love the guy! :)

    My father passed away when I was 24. I am 32 now, and my son is too young to sit in the front seat of my GT4 although he loves cars ("daddy race car"). My dad got me into cars when I was a kid. We went on many drives when I was younger and he always took me to dealerships when I wanted to go just to see cars.

    I think about them both while driving that car. One day, my son will be able to sit in the car with me, and even another day be able to drive it.

    Cars are a beautiful thing. I hope everyone had a great Father's Day.

    My dad inspired my love for cars. He restored an MGTC when I was little and had a 57 T-Bird and a Boano Fiat 124 sport coupe.

    He passed away 10 years ago. I miss him.
