Fun for the entire family! On 2/18 from 10 AM - 2 PM, witness a collection of rare and exotic Ferraris as they line the drive leading up to NOMA. Stay and enjoy our new exhibition, "A Life of Seduction: Venice in the 1700s". Ferrari teddy bears are free to the first 200 attending families to make a donation to NOMA, no matter the size!

Skip your Cialis that day unless you want an erection lasting more than four hours.

That Grand Tour show is pretty good. Their inability to handle the launch control function on each car during that episode was comical.

That show further proves to me those guys have the greatest job on Earth. They get paid millions to see some of the best places on the planet and beat on the best vehicles made.

I couldn't think of a more perfect job.

I was looking at that picture cynically thinking how boring it would be to go gawk at a whole bunch of 308s and 360s parked around... then I saw the Lusso in the back ground.

Agreed, although I could have done without the beach buggy expedition. I enjoyed watching it, but participating in it seemed like hell.

A buddy of mine was the president of the Louisiana Ferrari chapter, at one time..

He gave me a bottle of wine from their French Quarter Concorso in '04... Still have it...

I don't know why but the La Ferrari doesn't do anything for me. At least not like the 40/50/Enzo do.

Not knocking it as it is still awesome, juat an opinion.

I agree, I was shocked they got to tear up that Bentagaya.

That picture is not at this event. There was no picture attached, so I googled for Ferrari car shows. Issue was they were all at exotic locales, monaco, the shores of Monterey etc.
I saw that one I posted, and figured it was a better example of what to expect.

They definitely aren't my favorite just from a looks perspective. But It's not often that I'll be able to see one up close

The F50 was one of the cars that turned me into a car guy.

Went to their show in Houston a couple of years ago and it was a good time. I went expecting a bunch of snobby owners and found just the opposite.
All those that I interacted with were good people willing to share their knowledge and experiences with their cars. Go and enjoy the sights and sounds.

I live for Italian cars! Once you own one, your life will never be the same- nothing else will measure up!
