The pictures of him sitting in the car is not his but another customer. Keep reading and you will see the dealership allowed a stranger and his friends sat and started a customer's Z06.

I totally agree. I went and saw the same two cars today. I didn't even think of touching them, out of respect to the owner, let alone sit in them. I would have a total fit if these were my cars.

Fully agree. I totally despise when some stranger uses my car (in this case a Ferrari) as though it were theirs and lives vicariously through something I worked hard for. It's not their freaking car, so stay away. Just can't imagine what it will be like once my Z06 arrives (in transport as I write this). The dealer in this case -- with respect -- never should have allowed these actions to happen. Selfies are so self-indulgent and with a fabulous car included, that sort of completes the picture, so to speak!

At first I was think "WTF man, who would do that???" but then I saw the pics, and the guys looked so happy, I couldn't help to feel sympathy for them 
I'd rather nobody did that to my car, but they're just enthusiasts like we all are

I would have been PISSED!!! it's one thing to buy a car off the lot, but these cars are ordered and owned by someone, these are not dealer stock cars? I had planned on being at the dealership the day my car pulled up on the truck, but since I changed it to Museum delivery, now I don't have to worry about it. This will be the very first car I've ever ordered and the first time I've spent this kind of money on a car. I would not want some random person with no need to be in my car, in my car!

I can see where everyone is coming from on this, i prob. wouldn't be too happy to see people sitting inside my car and taking pictures. But In reality it isn't the end of the world and it isn't something that would keep me from not wanting the car.
Lets be realistic here, the first time you slam a pothole in the car is way worse then whats happening here..
I keep my cars in very good condition always have always will, but what some people need to understand is that it really is only a piece of metal,plastic etc etc.. You cant let it ruin ur day/life. There are way more important things to worry about.

I'd be angry about this if it was my car! The guy seated in the car can smile & think what he wants but unless he ordered the car he shouldn't be in it! If he wants to be happy he needs to buy one or at least get out of the customers car. If I ordered the car and saw this I'd go to another dealer
