ALONG WENT ARNOLD'S SPIDER! Arnold's Ferrari Spider for sale! Reported By: René de Jong Tuesday, October 8, 2002 The National Enquire reports hummer-riding Arnold Schwarzenegger recently bought a gray Ferrari Spider for almost $300,000. However, after driving it around Hollywood for a couple of month he just HAD to return it to the dealership. ![]() "I was getting way too much attention and far too many stares," Arnold told the dealership president in Woodland Hills, California. One car dealer claims Arnold said he needed a car that would better telegraph his image as a candidate for the future California Governor but a Ferrari Spider just doesn't get that image across. ![]() Of course the dealership didn't want an upset Terminator so the dealership took the car back and even refunded him a hefty percentage of the sticker price. Arnold also hand-drafted a letter to the dealership stating that it was OK to resell the roadster using his famous name. Schwarzenegger also signed a Ferrari leather jacket and a photo of himself, in hopes of helping the dealer unload the used car for full price. Bottom line... Arnold just needs to "stick around" with his Hummer. ---------- ![]() |
