If you don't want to appear rich or a good robbery target, why buy a Ferrari in the first place? Plenty of other rich people somehow manage to get by without such extravagant displays of wealth.

Ferraris are fun to drive.
So are go carts.
They are actually a bit more dangerous to drive on public roads though....
I'd imagine the fun parts of driving a ferrari aren't really legal on public roads in the first place
It's a grey area. You can have a great deal of fun between 0 and the posted speed limit. Acceleration, breaking and handling matter at any speed.

However a cop may judge that you are driving recklessly regardless of whether you obey specific traffic laws.

Very late, but a) Ferraris are fun, b) it's a life's ambition fullfilled for him, and c) it's proven an excellent investment for him.
