From here.
To sum up, a guy test drives a Ferrari, convinces the salesman to switch seats, and as the salesman gets out the driver takes off. :eek:
The best part of the article, by far:
“Police released a description of the Ferrari thief - White, around 6-foot, slender, with short, clean-cut, reddish-brown hair and glasses. The Ferrari is pretty hard to miss.”
Well, duh. “Yea, keep a look out for a bright red Ferrari…”
<< TRAPEZOID - A device for catching zoids. >>
My god, it’s Michael Schumacher! I saw him on TV this morning, and, get this - he was driving a bright red Ferrari!!
Oh? I can here the scanner now… “Be on the look out for a red Ferrari, coming your direction you should see it any time now.”
“Ahhh well, SOMETHING just went by…”
“Was it the Ferrari?”
“Well, I couldn’t tell… It was going fast”
“Was it red?”
“Couldn’t tell, it was going fast… Really fast.”
Q: How do you catch such a unique car?
A: You 'nique up on it!
Another sign of trouble with today’s economy: F1 teams can’t afford to provide cars for their drivers. 
I guess it also explains why he was only able to put it seventh on the grid
i worked up the street from that Ferrari dealer…(laid off in July)…its near Villanova University if anyone knows where that is…i used to see Ferraris all the time during the summer months
like Ferris said
“if you have the means i highly suggest you pick one up”
ppppfffft! There goes my root beer, all over my keyboard!
“Well, it was red when it passed me, but it was blue until then.”
Think he’ll get a vanity plate that reads “DPLR SFT”?
You know that thing was in the back of a semi in 5 minutes and on a ship bound for Saudi Arabia within an hour.
Only on the Main Line…other places they steal Fords. Maybe a Mercedes.
Main Line theives don’t settle for anything but the best.

Well who said crime doesn’t pay? He’s only gone and won the Grand Prix with it.

No way! I admit it, I did not read the article, but my first instinct was to mention how I’ve been by this same dealership many times and wondered what they would say if all of a sudden I came in and asked for a test drive (my guess is that they’d laugh at me and ask to see a briefcase full of $100 bills first).

Would it be funny if someone actually got that vanity plate and then painted the front of their car blue and the back red, with the colors fading into each other in the middle? :dubious:

An even better vanity plate for this situation: “C”
The roads wind a bit around there. They should look for skidmarks leading to crumpled red metal next to a granite wall.
PS- Do they still have that rickety10 foot wide bridge that goes over the railroad tracks by Villanova? Of course, it might have collapsed by now…but if not he’s probably 10 cars back waiting in line to cross it.
