We do a Ferrari run to the Milwaukee Concourse Car show in August each year. Typical turn out is 20 - 25 Ferrari's. We take a leisurely tour north on back roads and then come back on I 43 to Downtown. Running 20+ Ferraris down the freeway for 20 minutes or so is downright dangerous. People pulling up, pulling over, speeding up, slowing sown to get the pictures is a stitch. I'll try and find some pictures....
Oh this is true! But then I like to blip the throttle & run hi RPM under overpasses & tunnels. Puts the biggest smile on my face. I've absolutely had folks ask me to pull over to comment on the car. Thankfully no police Except for attendants (local ones only), I don't hear much about the 355 at the pumps. The 308 gets more love at the pumps.
Oh cool! Were you able to experience the car with all the rain we had? I was cooped up all weekend nursing a cold.
Image Unavailable, Please Login I hear ya, my 308 always received a great deal of attention at the pumps too. Not so much with the 355......
I drive mine around. To the store, to the gas station, to work, to the gas station, to dinner, to the gas station, etc. Maybe once every 2-3 trips I get a thumbs up or someone taking a phone while driving (or passenger). Sometimes when I go back out to my car, someone is taking a picture or getting gas if I didn't say that already. Usually no biggie, maybe a question or two. Totally fine. I did have one guy say, "nice miata" as I was driving in a parking lot. I yelled back it's a pontiac fiero!. I personnally thought that was a funny try by the kid.
Because of where I live, my car really doesn't get that much attention (which is fine with me ) . Most people probably dont know what it is, I would get more questions on a John Deere tractor for sure. But the comments I do get are all positive and from mostly from middle aged folks.
Hahahaha. Thankfully I don't see too many Bernie bumper stickers in GA. Althought it's definitely getting more blue down here. SMDH
Nothing more classic than a red Ferrari, but also nothing makes a car stand out more than being a bright color. While any 355 will stick out regardless, the anticipated slight down-tick in attention is why I didn't consider a red (or yellow) car. I've never seen a 355 in a color I didn't like, red and especially yellow look great IMO, however I'm pretty subdued so black worked out great for me.
