Where was everybody? 3 Porsches, no Ferraris. Coffee, then Decker to PCH. Stopped at the offending pole for a moment of silence, then on to Neptune's for lunch. Nice day!!

So, if someone was selling a set of Ferrari rims it would be a copyright infringement?
I don't get it, you were selling an pice of hose off of a Ferrari how is that infringement? It seems all these parts need to be removed as well.

Intellectual Property rights? So you aren't allowed to sell a Ferarri Hose on eBay? It was a real Ferrari hose, I saw it a Long Beach this weekend.
Nice to meet you at Long Beach, Howard. |

Nice how they can pick an "infringing" item and let others go.
Guess they didn't like the attention it drew to their crumbled million dollar baby.

(edit) I wonder if Ferrari could be sued for hampering a legitimate sale of legally obtained goods. Hey, this hose could end up getting Howard a new F car as a settlement.
