That is one good way to bust your emblem. They are not held on very well (if you ever changed it you'd know). Do NOT do it that way

I agree. The previous owner pushed on theh emblem, and I had to replace it.

But it did include my tips for the Ferrari, I've pasted them here for easy reference.

1) Pull off car cover
2) Dust lightly with endangered snow owl feathers
3) Stare admirably for several minutes, turn around then back again quickly to notice any dust the owl feathers missed
4) Have a friend help push the car out of the garage as not to annoy family members with that 8 or 12 cylinder roar
5) Gently open door with kid glove on
6) The car is 4" off the ground, slowly get in to avoid back injury, close door
7) Put on racing gloves
8) Hold steering wheel and gaze out the windshield in admiration
9) Place key in ignition (it's on the right side)
10) Step on clutch, disengage transmission
11) Slowly turn the key
12) Listen closely for wearing timing belt
13) Get out and open engine lid
14) Examine timing belt
15) Write down date/time/mileage to ensure accurate timing belt change
16) Have a friend follow you in his BMW
17) Drive to dealer for maintenance
18) While driving home in your friends bimmer, tell him how stupid his iDrive is.

j/k
Back in the ole days of racing, the drivers used to run to their cars. Having the ignition on the left gave the Porsche drivers the advantage of putting the key in the ignition while putting the car in gear. This saved them some time.
A friend told me about it before...but the video makes it clearer.
