They do say that men never grow up – only their toys get bigger and much more expensive, right? Well, it’s that time of year and this little boy, whether naughty or nice, wants his own Christmas present from dear old Santa.
Said boy (…) is old enough to recall the year the Ferrari F40 was launched, way back in 1987. He had to wait a few years, though, to see one in the flesh, or rather kevlar, carbon fiber and aluminum, and fall deeply in love.
After all these years, he still hasn’t gotten around to sitting on that red seat. So when he saw the following video, he took the liberty to change the lyrics to an old classic a bit.
I don’t want a lot for Christmas
This is all I’m asking for
I just want to see this baby
Parked right outside my door
‘Cause I just want it here tonight
To hold its steering wheel so tight
Make my wish come true
A nice red F40 will do
I won’t make a list and send it
To the North Pole for Saint Nick
I will simply stay awake to
Hear the V8 engine tick
I just want it for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
A nice red F40 will do
Merry Christmas from us all!
