I hate to admit it, but when I bought my film Hassys back in the '90s, if there had been Ferrari colored ones available for the same price as black or chrome ones, I probably would have grabbed one. Just for the whimsy factor. I often had curious onlookers come up and ask about my view cameras and MF gear in those days anyway, and it would have been fun to concoct some outrageous yarn to tell people. Like I retrieved it from the site of a Ferrari crash. Or when you send in a Hassy for a CLA, they just randomly recover them every once in a while, like finding a gold ticket in a Willy Wonka chocolate bar. Or maybe you get one for free when you buy a Ferrari, and one of my female clients gave me hers in return for a print I made of her cat.
