They see me rollin. My Ferrari Segway limited edition

Forget that you have to drive in an upright position. Meet the limited editon Ferrari Segway. Top speed is a whopping 12.5 miles per hour and achieving the envy of every treckie, you can now have your very own Ferrari. This comes just in time to celebrate Kimi Raikkonen's F1 championship.
However, despite being painted in tifosi-red, having a "Genuine Leather" handlebar and sporting the Cavallino Rampante shield, it doesn't run any faster than a regular Segway version of the famous but slow-selling gyro-stabilized scooter. It costs $12,000, so don't expect an owners' racing series to arise anytime soon, except maybe after hours at the Oracle campus.
