    They where very friendly and liked what I've done to the car. Cost of the plate wasn't that expensive either.

    They also asked me what I liked about the car and brand and not and they wrote down all my comments and also promised to stop producing that hybrid sh#t and start making cars again.

    I call BS… that’s a custom aftermarket plate IMO. If it is somehow authentic from the factory, congratulations to you.

    He's just trolling and doesn't want to help us. Actually pulling the plate and laser engraving more info wouldn't be that hard.

    Ferrari would never do that. They would never make a one of Personalization Plate. This is BS.

    Hey Guys calm down... I thought you understand the ironi in my answers... Ferrari does not like what o have done to my car and could not care less about my opinion...

    And if this would be possible to buy they would charge an arm and leg for it:)

    I was just try to be funny but guess that didn't work for some of you;)

    It's a local printer that helped me make this so it's just a sticker over the original plate - that's it.

    Relax guys!

    Local printer made it. I told him to make it so it can easily be changed, you never know what the future brings - if I win the lottery, it will say "goldplated the whole car like a gangsta" instead.

    If it had came from the factory, I do think this would be desirable... I'm seeing some employee that make these daily sneaking in late at night at the factory and make one for a friend or something... That would have been a fun story.

    No worries. You don't have to worry about me losing sleep over this. I simply made a logical conclusion.

    Anyone who didn't immediately catch his sarcasm and see the humor, deserves to be upset and confused. And also, obviously has a lot to learn about Ferrari. I mean, it doesn't even make sense for the factory to edit a spec plate after it was built. It came with what it came with, period. Cool mod Freddan just to be different.

    Thanks mate. I Thought it was to obvious about the look and the aftermarket spec... :) When i did annual service a couple of weeks ago - I could clearly tell that there where not impressed in the changes ive done:) Everything thats not bone stock for them is not good. It was the last free service so now i will service the car at another shop.

    You gotta be player hater of the year to work for Ferrari. Todd would be the perfect employee.
