Why would not a rich person drive his Ferrari sturday evening to show-off, and a Toyota FR-S on sunday after-noon to gain driving experience on a car that cost nothing for him and is not too dangerious?

I may be wrong, but I think Pebble Beach is over $200 and that was over five years ago. IDK what it is now.

Reason 1: He's rich
Reason 2: He owns a Ferrari.

I know you're not insinuating that the Scion will be more fun to drive than the Ferrari. I'm trying to think why, if I were rich enough to afford a Ferrari, would I ever even think about buying a Scion.
