Ferrari Golf Car

[FattyPatty]

Good afternoon all. I saw a beautiful red Ferrari golf car in the Brownwood area about a week ago. Looking to have one made and would like to hear from the owner or others on suggestions on where I could have this built. Names of custom shops would be helpful. Thanks for any help.

You might change your mind when see cost.:wine:

Check out streetrod golf cars. Not sure if they do custom builds or just make a set portfolio of vintage carts?

Much cheaper than I expected, but it has no roof (think summer sun and sudden rain storms), it did not appear to have any way to carry golf clubs. IMHO, not a good choice for TV unless it is just for show.

I've lived here almost 13 years, when I first got here a thought, they were cute, now I don't even notice them.
It's not the cost we're only here once, but I could just imagine spending the money and two years down the road the novelty wears off.

The concept of dressing up golf carts, to look like 70-80 year old cars, grew old 25 years ago. With few exceptions, they look ridiculous and by extension, make the drivers look like 9 year olds on Christmas Eve.

Don't get me started on people who use them on the golf courses.

Good morning! So I have seen the same Ferarri cart. I wanted one. I actually spoke to the owner. He bought it from a shop in California. The shop making them in Cali got a cease and desist order from Ferrari and he wanted to get rid of it quickly. So unfortunately he does not make them any more. I search used market once per week hoping to see someone selling one.

I asked a few custom shops in Florida and they said no.

C'est la vie

Good luck! Have a blessed day

This shop is in the Netherlands. Wonder what their international door to door delivery would be?

The Dutch one (aside from it's already sold) has a roof. It's pretty cute.

Check out "The Villages Custom Cart Club" Group on Facebook. Ask there and see what you come up with.

I would strongly recommend not using The Villages Golf Cart man in Lake Panasoffkee. The owner is never present and frankly he needs to be medicated.

Agree. I saw it as well, and thought the same thing.

I'm over the "custom" golf cart thing. I want it to be practical, reliable, and comfortable.

These funny looking golf carts usually just startle me on the road. But some people dress up their bicycles too.

Can't help you but I like where you are going. Having the same thing as everybody else is perfectly fine....but customization is also fine. I love seeing what people do with their stuff!!

Well . . . I am interested in one done Street Rod and I want it like an old timey pickup. Why? Because I don’t golf and I want it for the place in back, as well as front, to carry my bags from the grocer etc . . . So, I’ll just have to look ridiculous, but I really don’t care.

Do tell . . .

Too funny....but absolutely true. Nothing novel or original about the concept but I guess when you have a lot of (expletive withheld) money....anything goes

On weekends and holidays you could loan it to the Shriners for the many parades they participate in ...in support of their great work. ;)

Since hardly anyone can actually spot a real Ferrari unless Magnum P.I. is driving it , why not just buy the badge and stick it on your Yamaha? You can grow a big moustache and put a bumper sticker on the back that says "Ask me about a reverse mortgage"! Nobody will know the difference!

I just saved you $10,000. You're welcome!

You’re just killing me (with laughter).

Let me say this to OP, if you are new to TV why not wait a bit and see what you really like? Hubby and I got something almost black because it looked classy, after the first summer we really changed our minds. If you’ve been here awhile, go for it, one life….

I always wanted one that looked like a boat with a bimini top.

I thoroughly enjoy the creativity and uniqueness of the wide variety of golf carts in The Villages. I enjoy seeing them and admiring the work and ideas put into them.

However, like art and Victorian homes, I enjoy looking at them and admiring them, I do not want to paint, I do not want to live in an old Victorian, and I do not want my cart to look like that.

Please don't let the grumps bother you. One of the charms of The Villages is the variety & uniqueness of the golf carts. You might be leading one of the parades that most of us are so proud of.
