The 2014 Car Guy Tour is now on its 4th day and moving very fast. We learned today from Leonardo Fioravanti - who designed the car - that the original internal name given to the BB Boxer was Brigitte Bardot (BB) The Ferrari guys could not handle that and came up with the name Berlinetta Boxer. The flaw pointed out by by Leonardo was that the word Berlinetta, is typically a front engine car. A great time is being had by all. From Turin and off to Modena Tomorrow.

I recognize Frank Mandarano! He has the BEST Car Guy Tour!! He is also a fantastic leader - he never lost a car going from place to place. An amazing talent that you only appreciate when you try to lead a group yourself! Will you stop at Schedoni? Pagani? Carozzeria Campagna? Of course you'll see Ferrari in Maranello! Have a great time.
Not my son, but Ben, Dan's son. Wife Janet came this year. Tour now in the history books and now the Maserati 100 gets underway. FGM
Lucca and Leonardo on the left in that last photo - how nice! Frank was the person instrumental in getting Lucca to come to Monterey in 2009 followed by his father, Leonardo Fioravanti, in 2010 Image Unavailable, Please Login
