I had a customer come in to buy an H2 as a tow rig for his toy trailer. He arrived in a yellow 550 with his son (about 11- or 12-year-old)
They parked in the customer delivery parking, which, meh it was a slow night but there’s a reason those spots were empty (and the sign in front of them said “reserved for customer delivery”)
He jumped out and stood by the door for a few seconds and then his son got out but didn’t shut the door. His dad walked around and suddenly I realized why he had stood near the driver’s door for a bit before walking around.
He put his hand inside of his shirt and used the cotton shirt to push the door closed.
Mind you, he had just driven on a 55 mph highway (and a few county roads) on his way to our dealership.
Ferrari ownership is a confusing dichotomy of reality and eccentricity.
Also, I really wanted one of our lot boys to pull a car around for delivery and ding his 550 while we finished paperwork, solely because I’m a jerk like that and wish those kinds of things on people who use their t-shirt to shut their car doors.

An old guy I worked with put the nose of two 550s into the exact same pole, and apparently had also hit something else with a 550 at another shop he worked at. Don't recommend it, even the little duct hose to the underbody cover is $200. I serviced a car that's the opposite of the OPs, a guy has a 575 with the back covered in "I love my Doberman Pinscher" bumper stickers, came in wearing camo sweatpants and an "Osama Hunting License" T shirt, I think I have a pic of the car somewhere in my phone I'll try to dig it up later

confirmed for having a handmedown car.
maybe when you buy your own car you'll learn to appreciate things.

It's just a car. If you have to baby it maybe it's crap.

i had to do this with a previous car that kept giving me static shocks, maybe he's the same?
Jeremiah Gomez
Bah. Mr. 550 is worried about resale value and that's it. It's why he parked where he thought no one else would get near it. Probably stresses the kid out about touching anything inside the car too.

Oh, and guaranteed his house is filled with "original wrapper" shit, not because he appreciates what it is but rather that he wants maximum shekels for it later

Do you like it? How's it drive. Does the interior feel dated or cozy?

I drive it hard every day. Have come close to 150, but not there yet. Taking it to a track in a couple months. Don't know if I'll give it up, even if it does appreciate.
>Do you like it? I fucking love it. >How's it drive. Incredibly smooth but shitloads of torque, even in the higher gears Does the interior feel dated or cozy? The only thing digital on the dash is the fuel gauge, but it's still mad cozy.

>static shocks I get shocked to shit every time I take the cover off mine. Fucking thing builds up tons of static.
