May 2nd - Mid Engine F Car Tribute -FoNE MA

We will be attending as well although we only have our front engine car up here now.

 

Wow thanks for the notice. I hope to be there.

I see they have a few older cars in inventory (like an '86 328 for $120k and an '83 308 for $140K) but the 288 GTO and F40 they had are no longer listed.

 

Got a flyer in the mail saying it was the 16th...?

 

There is a different event on the 16th of May. The one this Sat. is this -

Saturday, May 2: Ferrari of New England
11:00 am to 1:00 p.m. - 441 Providence Highway/Rt. 1 - Norwood, MA 02062
Ferrari of New England has recently acquired a complete collection of low mileage mid-engine Ferraris. Join us for a Cars and Coffee on May 2 to view this display of every mid-engine road car from the 1970’s to today; 308 to 458 Italia. A rare treat to see them all in one place, come see these desirable Ferraris before these cars are sold to new owners! And a great reason to take your Ferrari out for a spring drive and socialize with other FCA members.
No RSVP necessary. Coffee and pastries will be served.

 

I hope to show up as well, I bought the F430 from this collection on Wednesday, and the car is in pristine condition. My first Ferrari, so maybe will get to meet some local members.

 

Wow, since Wednesday! I'll be looking for the guy with the giant smile that he can't wipe off his face! Congratulations!

 

I wish I could go.... I'm getting my Mondial out of storage today but I'm off again tomorrow morning for another week of travel.
Take pictures.

 

A very nice, low key event today with wonderful hospitality from FoNE, thank you and well done! Met some very nice people, saw some great cars in the parking lot, including a gorgeous 430 Spider in TdF Blue and a very light cream (Crema) interior and had fun talking about the cars, all red and all from one collection. A couple already marked "sold".

The Maserati MC12 was not part of the collection but is included here for "diversity"!

Picture quality not great but here is a flavor of the display:

Nice.

Wasn't that long ago that some dealers wanted nothing to do with 3x8s.

 

Yeah that was somewhat fun. Good to get my 308GT4 out for a blast and see the gang. Remember all those 308's you passed on for $32K? Well suddenly they're all $80,000.

 

No picture of the pristine 355 GTS?

 

Did anyone pick up a copy of the Dupont registry magazine on hand?

FONE had a full page ad representing these cars, using stock photos instead of the actual cars.

 

There's an event there tomorrow. Anyone else going? We'll be there with our FF.

 

I'm planning on going with my red F430 coupe ... and a friend with his red F430 spider.

 

An event at FoNE? At what time?

My wife would love to see an FF "in the wild".

 

starts @ 10 am - 2 pm

 

10 am - 2 pm ... it's a cookout.

May 30: Ferrari of New England: Car Show/Lunch

10am-2pm at Ferrari of New England - 441 Providence Hwy/Rte 1 - Norwood, MA 02062. Bring your Ferrari, Maserati or other cool set of wheels, meet up with some other FCA members, and grab some lunch. This will be complete with burgers, sausage, and Italian ice of course. No RSVP necessary.

 

I'll be there, but my wife had other plans.

 

It was a great turnout - lots of cool cars, even convinced my brother to bring his 51 Studebaker. I think the Red R8 had the meanest sound.

 

Photos are up on Facebook.
