Feeling Good

So pulled up into the parking lot of Mimi's Cafe for breakfast and parked next to a Ferrari knowing that my Mercedes can smoke it any time of the day made me proud to be an AMG owner.

Sounds like he is a restaurant owner. I like your plate, nice. Ya, you should have talked with guy and set up a race at the local drag strip. There is no doubt though that Ferarri's are a very cool ride, there is nothing that compares to the sound and the feel you have driving them.

Thanks. Don't get me wrong. Who doesn't like a Ferrari and have driven more than a few, the only down fall for me is it is a 2 seater and the car sits too low to the ground to my liking.

A little weird granted.

Does he think his Ferrari will bbq (as in smoke) any competitors?

Perhaps he needs an attitude adjustment David! LOL

Thought of this initially but it is indeed a stretch.
Maybe it is referring to the well known propensity for Italian exotic cars to catch on fire.

How about BBQing ( smoking ) FERRARI? Why pay the extra money for a personalized license plate when no one can read/understand it? Just saying.

I agree. That is why, after my near future mild tune is installed, I have ordered the following 1960 legacy Cali plate (black with gold characters):

"540 HP"

I think the black plate on the black car will look both cool and stealthy!

The women on the road will think I work for HP. BUT, . . .

The jokers in mustangs and Cameros will know what it means!!

David, You need the following plate:

"700 + HP" lol. Or is 800 now? Must be fun !

Awesome. Bet you can't wait to add more HP to your beast. I'm sure mustang and cameros will know exactly what your new plate means man and the ladies will just need to know its a Mercedes. Lol.

As for me. It's still the 680HP E63, but do find myself being called out on street races more than I care for. It's fun though.

Maybe that glass plate over the motor gets so hot from the engine being right under there he cooks things on it? All I can think of about that weird plate. I can imagine leave the engine idling for a while on a hot day and you could at the very least pour some pancake batter on the glass and they'd cook fairly well, just put a little olive oil on it first.

While the E63 AMG is a more practical ride, the Ferrari is more like a work of art best just admired not used.

Not a big fan of cross word puzzle, but doesn't cross word have a meaning many if not all have a answer ? My plate has a mean or at lease people reading it understand what it mean? Just saying Hyperion.
