    This was the highlight of the year End. If you were lucky enough to see the 2015 Euro Fest, then that will tide you over until Amelia Island in March.
    I have totally forgotten the BMW location, this was top of the heap. Food was there, car were easy to see, nice grounds, nobody in the sand traps with a car.

    It was great to see the BMW M1, two of them. The Porsche crowd was pleased as over 50 of those cars showed up. About 21 by Ferrari. Even a Silver Daytona Hidden away.

    The French Cars looking good. I did not really like the GTO made from a 330.

    The crew really made this year the top, we need to give them all a million dollars for the work and time put into making this a super car show. It just blew away the old BMW grounds.

    I was shocked all day, as I felt like I was at some west coast car event.

    As you can see I got there very early. I was the second car at the Hubble Telescope thing. This was 6:30 am. I tried to book the main hotel a few months back in the summer but missed out. SO...................... I had to get up a the crack of dawn.

    I would like to congratulate the Euro Fest group for a job well done. The venue at the golf course was better than I thought and I can only imagine how much work it took to pull it off. I had reservations when I heard that it was moving from BMW but it only took one lap around the cars to realize this could grow into a really, really super big show. A great variety of cars and some first class exotics. I have been to numerous National Ferrari Meets, Amelia Island, and other car shows and I was impressed with the way this show turned out .

    It was my first Euro Fest visit and participation with the Rosso Pontevecchio 599. I enjoyed seeing the various car classes and makes. It was interesting to see the French section with various Citroens including an SM and 2CV. Very cool stuff indeed. Lots of great people and owners to meet for the first time too!

    I would like to thank those that produced this event. I have been organizing Cars on 5th in Naples for 11 years now and can attest to the time and effort involved to put on this calibre of a car show. I hope to make it to Euro Fest '16 next year. Great job!! Thanks again!!

    Yep. I took over it's care in on May 1st when it had 18k miles. It now has over 22k miles. I plan to drive the wheels off of it. I have been driving it in the NC mountains for the last few months. I love driving the 599.

    Thanks. And the Spyker has got to be one of the ugliest things I have ever seen.

    They're about the same size as a 911, or at least the ones I have seen have seemed so to me. I actually kind of like the Spyker, although I definitely wouldn't go with orange and black. It's a very rare C8 LM 85 model, one of just 24 built.

    That's great to here it will be used often. I'm in those same NC/TN/GA Mountains very often with my BMW M friends. I hope to cross paths with your beautiful 599 one day soon. In the mean time enjoy those spectacular roads through the national parks and park way.

    I recently organized a weekend for 14 couples here in the NC mountains. We had a blast driving some of the most amazing roads I have ever driven. Although the "Tail of the Dragon" gets all the notoriety IMHO its more for bikes than Fcars. I lead the group on an "unnamed road" that combines the best of all.....curvy and switchbacks, sweepers, straights......I was grinning ear to ear. 24 miles and 209 turns.......amazing stretch.....
