    I go to a lot of car events and I always see people with car logos tatted on their bodies and also pictures of cars. I have never seen the word Ferrari tatted on anyone or a picture of a Ferrari. Am I to assume that Ferrari drivers are not into tattoos or do they not tattoo logo's on themselves or pictures?

    Assuming "Ferrari drivers" are a unified class of people is pretty silly.

    There are a few tattoo discussions (with pictures) in both subscribed level forums here.

    In general I haven't encountered too many FCar owners with tattoo sleeves down each arm.

    Alot of the owners I've met are fairly conservative professionals and business owners.

    Your question is slightly rhetorical, but, I'll bite. It is likely a perceived notion that Ferrari drivers are not tattooed, or dislike tattoos in general. And that would be incorrect, as in everything in life, there are those that like and do, and those that do not and don't, and opinions and preferences on either side. My statement to you would be this: I own a Ferrari and I am tattooed, and thoroughly enjoy both.

    I know a Ferrari owner with two full sleeves (and a lot more). He used to own a 360 Modena (126550), and nearly a decade ago he sold it for a Series II 250 GTE (3545 GT).

    I'm not yet a Ferrari owner, but I still have the best-placed Ferrari tattoo in the history of Ferrari tattoos.

    Afraid of needles. C'mon, youre a Dr, you're supposed to be an example for the rest of us right?!

    I hate needles also and that's the barrier to entry into the ink game for me. Some of them look great though-I dig the one on the girl in this pic but for me it's a no

    Indeed she does (Cyndi) - accompanied by her license plate, (4RE CAT), which is part of her initials, on her wrist.

    If your car is your identity, you have bigger issues to consider than a tattoo.

    I have Army tatts on each shoulder, but that will forever be a part of me; the cars may not.

    I think I have 5-6, kind of forgot what is on my back ..... Black roses and some Chinese language. But after seeing that hot horse, and the SF shield now I am thinking ...... my last ex hated tats and long hair. So after the divorce I got 3 more tats and did not cut my hair for 5 years ;) Some days I don't think to clearly.
    Don't know anybody with a Ferrari tat.
