Ah yeah I never really considered that. The local supercar shop just sells a wide variety of vehicles, from PGT's to S7's to even a Lotus 340R I saw in there once. Walking in felt akward with jeans and a plain raincoat, but we ended up chatting about the Spyker C8 Spyder they just got in stock. If any of you are curious, the business is called Park Place LTD.

Yep the old supply and demand theory... They dont need sales people cause there cars pretty much sell them selfs. I hear ya, maybe you should wright a letter to the VP of US sales and tell him about your buying experience.

So, Ferrari doesn't want people who wear shorts buying their cars? That's funny. So I guess if Hugh Hefner walks through the door in a bathrobe, they'd chuck him out too.

As a business guy, I enjoy selling to anyone who enjoys/finds value in what I sell. I'm Italian, and I don't understand that kind of Old World attitude

Hey, I used to work there! We are an official Lotus Dealer along with Spyker, Aston, and Superformance. I used to manage the Merchandise section they had next to the Service Dept. Now I work for myself, lol. I'm hopefully taking the path the OP took!

Anyways, congrats on the GT2. Its an amazing car! You'll have to tell us how the GTR compares to the 997 Turbo when you had it in its stock form.
