Default Ferrari Story

Check this out:

http://www.philly.com/mld/dailynews/...al/6864656.htm

I looked for a Main Line Ferrari dealership, but didn't find it.

People go thru more checks test driving a nissan..if he didn't show a license, i don't care how affluent he is, he's not driving..not like Ferrari is that hard to sell.. if this guy left they could always get another buyer..

I have to:

1. Go buy a fake Roex

2. Put on my best suit/tie

3. Go to THAT dealership and test drive a 360 Modena.

I'll be posting pics soon, stay tuned

It sold for $500k+ new and it is a collectors item now so that sounds about right.

I'm guessing the salesmen won't be employee of the month for a while.

Well, the sales guy didn't know any better...

They should have LoJack installed on all their Ferrari's...it would have been THAT easy.
