I’m going to go with the stock “It’s British so rain is its natural habitat,” canned response.

Respect.
One of my favorite observations was coming out of a restaurant a few years ago and walking through the parking lot just after it rained. I spot a gorgeous Ferrari 348 Spider parked , water beading on that lustr ous red paint. It was a beautiful thing.

I too have a deep respect for those who drive their exotics in weather other than clear and sunny. It’s far more interesting and exciting to see an exotic car when it’s completely unexpected because the weather is awful.
However, sometimes it’s not intentional. Years ago, I saw a Ford GT in a stripmall parking lot and got very excited. I definitely thought it was great to see its owner using the car even though the weather was pretty crappy. I happened to see the owner walk to his car, and just told him how much I loved that car. His only response was a pissed-off “Didn’t know it was supposed to rain”. Still glad to see him using it, but it was very apparent it was unintentional, and if he’d had known it would rain, he wouldn’t have driven it.
A more positive story- While it’s not a supercar, there is a new Corvette Z06 owner in my city that dailys it. Even over winter when it was snowing, he drove it. As far as I’m concerned, he’s living life right.

Actually, smart Ferrari owners *ONLY* drive their cars in the rain. Automatic fire retardant .
