Awesome detail, Todd. Have you done the cars in the background yet?

I haven't done the Boxer, but I have done the 550 and the GT2 in the background.



The only good story about 550 is that Brian Brice and I took it to South Beach last Wednesday night for a couple hours

So, are those Bella Macchina points like frequent flier miles? You save them up but probably never get enough to use them?



Exactly, 10 points is equal to one Bella Macchina dollar. One Bella Macchina dolloar is equal $.01 US.
 
Wow what a car!!! Nice work on the detail as well...

The owner let you take his Ferrari out on the town?



Actually I get offers to drive Ferraris, Lamborghinis, etc.. all the time and I always say no. I just don't feel comfortable and have never enjoyed driving other people's property.



Before the Cavallino concours show last year I had drive a classic, 30 year old Ferrari (that only had 800 miles!) 20 miles to the show. It was the worst, scariest drive ever. I didn't enjoy it until the car was safely parked at the Breakers and the key was in the owners hand, then it was a good time.



However this client is more like a friend and after several months of him telling us to take the car over and over I finally relented. He even called me when I was driving it and asked me if I had dumped the clutch and smoked the tires yet. When I said no, he acted upset and was like, what the hell are you waiting for!



When I go to Chicago, my client has 3 Murcielagos, one of which will be my daily driver, which is kind of wierd...

I hear you, I would be the same way. Years ago at work I had a small business owner dropping off something and I noticed he was driving a Grand National and remarked about it. He insisted and wouldn't relent until I drove it, and sitting in the passenger seat he egged me on to open it up (on a 25 mph road straight industrial park road), which I declined to do.



On the other hand, I have a friend from high school who has never grown up and still drives his dad's car whenever he can, and always wants to drive my cars (which I never allow).



Before anyone goes off on me, I'm not being cruel to this guy, he just acts like a spoiled only child, and he always drives a POS (he came over to wash his once for the first time in the 7 years he'd had it...)
