trust me on this - ferrari dont carry on like that ! i can speak with 5 years experience on dealing with the various sales deps at maranello and certain specialists in southern uk.
ferrari dealers are not rude, impolite , obstructive at all in my experience. in fact they have to proven to bo OUTSTANDING.
I love maranello - out of this world.
Hence our addition to the family , the 355.
Its ALWAYS the "high street" dealer who judges poeple by image.
A little tip to who posted the above -
The richest people you WILL EVER meet dont dress up and often dont wear suits ..... reason been .........the have made their money and dont have to wear suits to impress - take bill gates, branson, Jay z, damon dash etc etc etc. Monied poeple dont need to show their wealth.
And with Ferrari they know that the person comming in with a knackered car can often be then next internet millionaire, premiership footballer (rooney!, giigs in his day, becks, in fact any premiership player) or just inherited the money and learning to drive in a battered car.
I for one will only give a cheap reliable car to my children to learn to drive in as the chances of them damaging it will be quite high.
but......the one thing that stands out a lot is the way some poeple act - if you behave like a prat you expected to be treated like one but if you act in a mature manner and ask relevent questions if you are buying then you should be treated with respect.
Money comes in all shapes and forms and often in the casually dressed customer.
Ferrari never treated me or my fiance badly in fact they allowed access to 355 test droves before we even asked any "buying questions " hence why we own one now and will always respect the sales people at these companies . They know how to treat women and this is my point.
Its always the small man who has personal issues who picks on the women.
Real men dont pick on women, if you make a women laugh and treat her with dignity then you are half way there ( a little dating tip chaps !! )
In my experience the french dealers are worst, renault then peugeot,
VW are good and Mitsubishi are outstanding such are the Prancing horse.
I highly recommend a visit to maranello , if you act professionally you will come away with a great memory and will have something remember.
and remember some ferraris from ind dealers are not that expensive (308s and 3282 in LHD form)
