Owners of cars like this will rarely drive them, because each mile is so expensive from depreciation. That and they probably have at least 10 other cars to choose from.
Cameron: Ferris, my father loves this car more than life itself. Ferris: A man with priorities so far out of whack doesn’t deserve such a fine automobile. [Ferris caresses the car in admiration] Cameron: No. No! Apparently, you don’t understand! Ferris: [ignoring Cameron] Wow. Cameron: Ferris, he never drives it! He just rubs it with a diaper!
I was in a Ferrari and Maserati dealership in HK a couple years ago. Now if you don’t know, at high end places in HK there are security guards/salespeople/regular employees walking around checking up on you because they don’t want people messing around.
I was in the dealership with my family. It was quiet. One salesman was with one couple. I was on one side of the car. My family and the rest of the other employees were on the other side. Now, as you all know, when looking at cars you have to bend over to peak inside right? I did just that except I had my DSLR camera in my hand and the strap around my neck. Well, guess what? My hand slipped and the camera, like a pendulum. went right against the car. There was a loud bang and immediately, an employee walked over to see where it came from. I pretended nothing had happened and continued to look inside the car. I left right after. Got away with that one. Didn’t check to see if there was a paint scratch or dent on the car.
Random thought, I used to have a picture of me in a Corso Rosso Ferrari F430 as my LinkedIn picture… tempted to put it back up… throwback thursday and all
