Who doesn't remember Curly, Larry and Moe? Better known as the Three Stooges!!

As a kid, I loved watching their antics and to this day, they bring a smile to my face!
Slapstick isn't something I watch every day, all day; but, it has its place and time!

Thought I'd start a new thread so we can share funny things we've seen/ heard/ read
about Ferrari!! After all, if you can't laugh at yourself, you probably can't laugh!!

Brainy Quote

Here comes 40. I'm feeling my age and I've ordered the Ferrari. I'm going to get the whole mid-life crisis package.

What is it with cars and women that lead to so many comparisons:

Women are like cars: we all want a Ferrari, sometimes want a pickup truck, and end up with a station wagon.

Tim Allen


Even women do it:

The body is like a car: the older you become the more care you have to take care of it - and you don't leave a Ferrari out in the sun.

Lol. In the UK many years ago, I just assumed it happened everywhere. If you had 2 cars of the same make and model one had a front end smash and another had a rear end smash, irreparable garages would cut them in half and weld the 2 good half's together.

It was made illigal because the cars had a tendency to break in half if they where in another accident.

From Wiki


One form of lemon is called a cut and shut or clipping, a form of body collision "repair" based on buying a wrecked car and sawing off the wrecked section to replace it with a matching section from another (similar) car. If improperly repaired these vehicles may be inherently dangerous; at high speeds, or in an accident, the car may come apart due to the weaknesses of the welds or pins connecting the two segments of the vehicle or mismatches of segments.[6][7] In the UK cut and shut cars are treated like any car that has had major repair work resulting in what is essentially a new car. They must first be inspected for road-worthiness, be assigned a new registration number and pass the standard MOT test. If this is successful they will be given a "Q" registration, meaning they are a kit, or composite car and not an original unit from the manufacturer. [8] In some states of the USA, the sale of cut and shut vehicles is illegal. Cars created using two or more large sections of previous ones are sometimes called "zipper cars".
