You see, the only way you will ever break your Ferrari is if you do
somthing like that, and they know that it is a good possibility that you
will.  That is why they will not warranty it.  Stupidity is not covered
under warranty.  Besides the fact that people who buy Ferrari's don't
need warranties because they have money to get things fixed( the only
likely things that would break are electrical problems which would
surface in the first year anyway and would be covered under warranty.)
