    Women dish that one out for an easy insult. It's a completely hypocritical statement, why on earth does a woman need a (s-word) load of shoes to occupy room sized closet? What shortcoming is going on with the feet? Why does a woman need cosmetic makeup, what shortcomings could she possibly harbor without that makeup?

    People are don't really think that one through. Mid life is about the time most people can afford a Ferrari. Don't they think if everyone could buy one in their teens and 20's they would.

    True that many Ferrari parts are very easily obtained. And I get around 20 mpg in the 348 (the worst I have gotten is around 16), while I rarely get better than 15 in the Q45.

    Another plus of the 308.
    Less 'other' passengers.

    As in many things in life, it's not quantity ... it's quality. If it's the RIGHT passenger, one will do.

    I guess that depends... how big are the guy's hands and what size shoe does he wear? ;)

    If your not driving a Ferrari down the back roads, you need to question the necessity of the trip. Driving an SUV is as much fun as a root canal.

    And a city bus can hold over 30 people and runs on propane.

    But would you want to drive one? :D

    I didn't know I could buy a city bus for my personal use... I have heard about school buses, but those seats are just way to small....

    Another stereotype is that people think all Ferrari owners are pompous...
    and that all Ferrari owners feel that they're better than everyone else..

    Almost...

    thinking that Ferrari owners are pompous to me means that people think they try to LOOK the part, while the second statement means that people think that Ferrari owners actually BELIEVE they're are better than everyone else.

    The only stereo type i havent seen mentioned is the one where you drive the car on Sunday and put it in the shop for a few thousand dollars on Monday.

    Havent taken mine to the Nudie Bar yet. Does it really get you in the VIP section gratis?

    Oh ya...instant VIP entry..I took a 360 once, and a Bently about a week after that...When I pulled up in the Bently, the bouncer recognized me and asked the usual questions. He opened the door, paid no cover charge, and was escorted to the VIP section, and handed a cigar! Soon after..well you get the picture...

    Okay, enough crying into the beer.

    Let's think how we can come up with some useful stereotypes.

    E.g.: "If you steal a Ferrari, the mafia will get you!".
    Let's spread that one around ... :D;)

    And here's another stereotype: Ferrari owners are notoriously bad at spelling. . .

    Justine was spelled deliberately.... as he is a girly boy

    I guess one more stereotype?..Ferrari owners do not know when someone is being sarcastic

    I believe most people think Fcar owners are posers...they do not know how to drive. :D

    hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

    I may be guilty of this myself! Mea Culpa!!!

    I suspect that Justine Beaver does not really know how to drive. :eek:
    The baby blue shields are a dead giveaway IMVHO.
