Sorry for the terrible cell phone pics, but you'll get the idea....
I went on lunch with some friends and saw this atrocity by a local Ferrari/Maserati dealer. Now that's an expensive mistake! Poor car!

I thought it was bad enough driving by and seeing all their cars sitting out side in the snow.

Yeah, seriously. I'll have to upload the pic I have from a all Italian show last summer with one of their brand new Maserati Quattroporte's "custom" interior. The leather around the center console was peeling up!
Must have been incuded in the $135,000 sticker price. God knows what else was done to that car. They should have their franchise revoked.

watched the vid and it looks like part of the ramp (backmost part) fell off. And if you look at the very end of the ramp at the pic two posts above, kinda looks like its snapped off. Either way, another Ferrari gone bad :(

Wow, they sent the chopper out for that?
This makes the time a Kawasaki Vulcan fell off my lift at the shop (aftermarket handlebars slipped in the clamps) sort of pale in comparison.

Ernie Boch Jr. Come on Down!!!!
The house that Subaru built.
I went to see a 79 RX-7 a few weeks back there,and the place is really nice inside. I was amazed at the inventory for an area where I hardly ever see these cars.

They shoulda used Travis Pastrana to get it off the trailer..give that man enough Red Bull and he can make a car fly.

LOLZ. well played, sir.
i prefer "man. tranny nutswinger"
(interesting that on GRM of all places, "manual trans nutswingers" would be used in a derogatory manner. VWVortex, sure. Grassroots Motorsports?

They probably already had the chopper out for traffic reports. The dealer is maybe a mile or so from the local Fox TV affiliates offices as well,so that may have helped.
