a 72 000

03:44

[Music]

06:27

foreign

06:29

there's a slight concern that entering

06:31

my driveway could kill us and that's

06:33

because it could set up the airbags

06:34

right behind this bumper there are some

06:36

sensors that are very sensitive more

06:38

sensitive than Ferrari

06:41

we don't want the airbags to go off

06:42

particularly because it could disable

06:44

the entire car and then we have a bunch

06:45

of stuff to deal with we need to be

06:46

really careful about hitting stuff for

06:48

the next

06:49

10 minutes till we get down the driveway

wash your Ferrari is with of course it's

10:56

a 3 300 PSI power washer though

10:59

problem with the hood scoop it's

11:01

impractical because it fills up with

11:03

11:16

ready

11:18

they could think of everything isn't it
