    Sometimes there are a few cars for sale there privately. Carolina Lamborghini I am sure will have cars there for sale as ell as FCI. I had my 360 spider up for sale there last year no luck ended up selling the car to a buyer in Colorado. If the right offer presented itself I would sell my 430.

    Kind of a stupid question I'm sure, but is the event free to attend? I'm not sure if I'll be in Charlotte that weekend, but if I am I'll be sure to try to make it, and want to be able to plan accordingly. Unfortunately, I don't have anything Italian to enter :(
