Interesting about your son.

When my kids went to school, Elementary and later High School (one is a Sommelier now, the other in Med School), they loved being picked up in Ferraris or my wife's Bentley, it "increased" their "status" and respectability among other students, made them "popular" kids.

Although, the biggest hit that they still talk about was a full boat, armored Humvee with a 50 Cal on top that I managed to borrow for the occasion. The entire school went nuts.......
