Can a red Ferrari ever be considered an appropiate choice of car for a gentleman?

Question

Is a Ferrari strictly for the Nouveau Riche? Should one stick to something altogether more sedate and British (Although no-doubt designed by a German)?

Certainly not old boy, that's for the new money vulgar types, lotto winners and the like a true gentleman wouldn't been seen dead in something that uncouth. If it was a choice between driving one and walking I'd walk, and that's saying something, you know how I despise using my feet for anything other than kicking the servants old boy. Tip top.

Asker's Comment:

Of course you are right old chap. I shall have the vulgar machine which I acquired during a wager immediately destroyed. Probably in front of some crisp-munching proles just to torment them.

Answer 2

NO gentleman would have a Red car of any make, unless perhaps, they were an errant younger son. A Bristol in British Racing Green would be acceptable.

Answer 3

absolutely,id love a Ferrari,but unless i win the lotto Ive not a cat in hells chance of actually owning one.

Answer 4

I would say a Chrysler would be far more suited to a Gentleman like yourself.

Depends on where you live.
A 'real' guy here needs at least a top of the range Hummer and drive it up the beach of a six star hotel at 11.00 a.m. will he want to at least draw 'some' attention ...

Absolutely no problem,old boy,providing one`s chauffeur is a 6 foot blonde.

Answer 8

Answer 9
