That Ferrari place in San Rafael was sporting a F50

Every so often i deside to take the mellow way home through San Rafael instead of the crowded west bound 3rd St. On the mellow trip i take Andersen Dr, then cu though the Safeway parking lot While making an Illigal left turn. Anyway, on the corner of Andersen and Du Bois St there is a Ferrari Storage building (if you didn't know already)

One day i saw my first and only Enzo parked there in the lot along with an endless list of others. But today i saw an F50. Holy $hight. What a beauty. If i had been in my Subie i would have stopped and looked it over more closely. but instead i was in a 91' Honda Civic LX that Daredevil (max) lent to me while my cars in the shop.

If any of you are into Ferrari's and happen to be in the San Rafael area i recommend stopping by to look over the cars. It's the bast collection i know of.

Thats actually the new location of the Ferrari/Maserati dealership service department, it used to be right there at the dealership off the 101 in mill valley but it just got too crowded.

I really cant stand working out of the new location, it was a much cleaner spot back at the dealership

This one is actually one of only 3 full race F-50s ever made when Ferrari planed to enter LeMans back in 96. Then they decided to pull the plug and focus on F1, so one of these is in Italy, the others in Japan, and ones right here in Pleasanton

Wish I could see an Enzo.
On the other hand, I've seen an F50 before and it was like "Holy Shiet!!" It was on Balboa at about 5th or so; I was driving a friend home and was so busy staring at the F50 coming in the opposite lane that I completely overshot her block
The funniest part was her reaction:
"Hey! You went past my block already!!"
Me: "Fuh fuh, fick, fuh, fah, Fer, Fer, Ferrari F50!!!"
Her: "What that red piece of $hit back there?"

Ya Jeremy, i knew that was the run over / storage place for the dealer ship down there in the Strawberry Village area. That place is so small they can only hold like 10 cars at the dealership.
Once on my way home i "think" i spotted Fred Durst of "Limp Bizkit" out there looking over a car.
