If they suck that badly at driving, they probably just have the Ferrari for looks/status and could care less about driving the Ferrari to the limit. I know we all love the FT-86 project, but no need to hype this car up as a god-send. It is great and all, but if I had $$$$ to spend on whatever car I wanted, it wouldn't even enter my list of possibilities.
Or at least buy same drivetrain layout as Ferrari. Example, If I was rich (I wish) and owned Ferrari 430 and I didn't want to break that 430 (just in case), I'll prob buy MR2/S, Elise, or some other MR layout cheaper sports car (than 430) and join local track event to skill up my driving skills. I would prob keep in same or close power/weight ratio w 430.

...that's just an example
