My “go to the store” car- Ferrari F1 Spider

Just an ordinary day in the Kierland Commons in North Scottsdale, Arizona.  November and the weather is sunny in the high 80′s.  It’s the perfect day run to the Coach Store and valet the ole’ Ferrari…be right back.

-Store Clerk “Sir, your total for 4 handbags, 4 wallets, 2 umbrellas, 3 belts and 6 pairs of shoes will be $7,354.34.  Will that be cash, check or charge?”

-Ferrari Owner “I’ll just put it on the black card…”

-Store Clerk “Thank you again Mr. Kiosaki, would you like to donate a dollar for the Phoenix Rescue Mission?”

-Ferrari Owner “Sure, in fact, charge it for two…”

So this car was deserving of two photos to capture the grandioso stance of one of the finest vehicles ever created- the Ferrari F1 Spider.

It’s a little difficult to see but I was trying not to be that “touristy guy taking pictures of the hot whips that don’t come around his neighborhood.”

The plate simply reads “F1SPIDR”

I am sorry Mr. Pontiac Firebird Man

No, I really am sorry.  I think I scared the hell out of this guy! 

Okay- so it was dark out, kinda late-11:30p.m. to be exact.  All I wanted to do was get a pic of his license plate and he got all freaked out and pulled over, thinking “someone is following me.”  I don’t know if it was the fact I changed lanes 3 times right after he did or that it took my wife 5 takes with the full red-eye mulitple flash to get this pic for you folks.  Either way, my sincerest apoligies and I learned a valuable lesson that night.

I learned not to take pics using the flash while driving behind another car late at night. Well maybe I can try to get away with one flash…

For the purveryors of fine wines… Nissan Murano Vanity License Plate

This aficionado’s corkscrew was popped outside of Armitage Wine Lounge in DC Ranch in North Scottsdale. This paticular enologist was parked out back which left me to believe it was the owner’s Nissan Murano.    Besides… shouldn’t we all know just by their license plate that they only drink the finest vino,  afterall “Life is a Cabernet

If I did my own version of this one it would read BUNSFRM
