Naples Cars


The area around Naples, FL has some very upscale, expensive real estate, to say the least. It not hard to notice a high percentage of Lexus, Cadillac, BMW, Jaguar, Mercedes-Benz, etc. logos on the highway.

A couple of weeks ago, Sue and I went out to dinner at Mel's Diner, a popular eating place in southwest Florida. As we were walking from the parking lot, I noticed a car that looked very much like the one in the picture above. An elderly couple, no doubt in their 80's, were exiting the restaurant. Both walked slowly and the husband was helping his wife negotiate the sidewalk.

To my mild surprise, the lights on the Ferrari flashed and the gentleman helped his wife into the passenger side of the car and then got in himself and they drove away. Don't get me wrong. I think that this was really cool. It's just that it is not something that you would see everyday.
