Funniest/Stupidest comments you have received about your Ferrari

Man, I can't see that. The 330 is, ahem, rather . . . shall we say plain, to my eye, especially for a Ferrari. . . but the Volvo! Ugh.

 

AHAHAH, USA is probably the worst place to have a Ferrari

 

This is interesting because i had the same thing happen when i owned my 308. The old man didn't think it was a Lotus but had never heard of a Ferrari. Because of the light set up in back, he thought it was a Corvette (which i'm sure lot of owners get this comment)...

250 coats of paint? What are they smoiking, I thought it was 300 coats

 

The extra 50 are only for the Canadian or other northern markets (for added warmth).

 

Lady backed into my parked Mondial Cab with her SUV, left a note on the window. "Sorry I dented your little horsie" it said!

 

Officer in local city police car (after maneuvering more than a block to get beside my 360 in traffic): "Want to trade?"

Me: "I could probably get away with driving a lot faster if we did!"

 

That's a great line.

To the people who ask, "How fast does it go?" I say, "Usually only as fast as the traffic in front of me."

 

Here's a great pair of quotes from a couple of college girls I drove past:

"Who do you think you ARE?" and "Your car is ugly!"

I about died laughing after I heard the second comment!

 

Teenage driver next to me at a light.....

"is that a REAL car?"

"Uh, yes."

"But, I mean, is it a real car?"

"Yes, it's a real car. Are you trying to ask if it's a replica?"

"No, is it a real car?"

I roll up the window, seeing this is going nowhere.

 

"Why did you put Ferrari stickers on your (Honda) Prelude?"

Responce- "Because it came like that from the Honda factory"

BTW... its a 400i

 

They do look alike!






















Seriously, that's got to be the stupidest comment on this board.

Ditto. Went to a car show in the midewest (all they seem to know is american muscle). The entry guy said, "park on the forth row down, we got a whole bunch of these down there." the forth row was a bunch of Fieros. ("Not that there's anything wrong with that." - Jerry Seinfeld) I laughed it off & had a good time anyway.

 

Ford wishes.

 

That's very funny.


Onno

 

Took the F355 Berlinetta out today. While at a stoplight heard a young kid in an SUV next to me say, "awesome car, what type of car is that daddy?". Daddy responded, "Mustang, son."

 

lmao....That reminds me of the youtube video of that kid all doped up after leaving the dentist..."Is this real life?" lol

 

I had my gt4 parked in front of a bike shop and when I walked out to leave a guy was checking it out. I stood there for a moment and watched and then said "Do you like Ferraris? his response was great " I know my cars and that's a Lamborghini Countach." I just drove away what could I have said?

 

Standing near my Mondi t cab one day chatting with a friend, two other men who had been eyeing the car approach it from the rear.
Man1: That's a Mondial t! That's the turbo!
Man2: No it's not. If it was a turbo it would say "turbo" in little letter script on the back.
Man1: You're thinking about a Porsche you idiot. This is a Maserati.
(they get closer)
Man2: It says "Ferrari" on the back
Man1: Maserati. Ferrari. What difference does it make? They're all owned by the same Italian company, what's it called...yeah... Alfa Row-Me-O.


Another time:
Man: Does the t stand for turbo?
Me: No, it stands for the configuration of the transmission, which aligned like a 'T' to the motor. (I do some additional quick explanation using hands)
Man: Are you sure?
Me: Yes.
Man: I'm pretty sure it stands for turbo.
Me: I've owned the car for a while and I can tell you there's no turbocharger in this car.
Man: Well, now, you see? You got ripped off.

 

See, you shouldn't have installed the scissor door kit, it throws the civilians for a loop.

I've had a few people think my GT4 is a Lamborghini. Not a Countach, but perhaps the more elusive Lamborghini Dino.

 

It's that sharp wedge Bertone style (GT4, Stratos, Urracco, X19) that likely throws off all the spectators. Very different than the normal Ferrari Pininfarina style.

 

At an auto parts store:

counter guy: what kind of car?
me: '78 Ferrari 308
counter guy: and who makes that car?
me: Umm...Ferrari?

 

My wife had one of the first Fieros back in 84. Asked more than once if it was a Ferrari.

 

Bwaahahahaha
