    I'm glad you finally made it out. It was a terrific turnout. We were a little surprised when we got there in the morning and security had only one section coned off and it was a record turnout. We'll get that sorted out this week so it doesn't happen again.

    Is that an ultra-rare Shockme sighting or did you photoshop Don & Randi in there?

    Some awesome stuff to see there on Saturday. The wife and I were up in the Seattle area, and made it over to Redmond, and it was well worth the trip! Nice to see such a variety of cars there.

    First time up close and in a Tesla for me, so that was a highlight. I love that, as people left they gave folks listening near the curbsid, a nice gowing away present with a 'bit of throttle'. The Tesla leaving was easily the fastest and it was surreal to hear NOTHING as it shot away.

    Roy's lambos sure sounded brilliant on the way out though. Yeeh Hah!

    Hi everyone! There will be big changes for Exotics at Redmond Town Center for this weekend so please note!

    As most of you know, we are having the Lamborghini senior executive breakfast event at Salish Lodge that morning. We will therefore only expect a few cars in the normal display area (if any). All cars joining us for the Lamborghini event are to meet in the RTC center drive rather than the normal parking lot, entering near from the west side. We will sort cars generally by height in order to have good photos of the police escorted procession to Salish Lodge. We will have the LP670-SV, the LP650 Roadster, and the LP650 Spyder on display in the center of RTC and not in the usual viewing area. Senior management will also be there from 7:30 to 8:30 AM. We will be leaving promptly at 8:30 AM for Salish Lodge under police escort. If you are joining us to Salish Lodge, be sure to be there before 8:00 AM.

    All cars NOT joining us, can park in the usual place or better yet, come to the breakfast! We have 85 people signed up for the Lamborghini breakfast and expect it to sell out soon. If you want to sign up, please do it ASAP by sending email to [email protected]. For those who aren't joining us, the RTC event will continue as usual.

    The event significantly surpassed my expectations. Truly great and I loved how candid Lamborghini's senior management is. You might just call me a convert after that.

    I caught the tail end of the event at Salish Lodge and got to roll out with everyone at the end, meet back in Bellevue and hang out for some more fun! It was great seeing you all and I'm looking forward to the next event. Thanks Tommy and Vic for putting the ERTC events together! Sorry I missed breakfast! =(

    What a day today was! I had such a blast just experiencing everything from beginning to end. I was exhausted by the end of the day that I ended up taking a short nap.

    Thanks to everyone involved for making this day possible especially Tommy! Kudos to the entire Lamborghini team for coming out to visit us!

    I've attached a few pictures for now. I'll upload more later after I've finished them.

    I have to say, today was probably one of my favorite events I have attended in the two years I have been here.

    Thanks a TON, Tom. Hopefully the video turns out okay. :D

    Take care,
    Colin

    Thanks T and K for arranging this, fantastic event.

    From my first trip to Sant A'gata in 1986, the Lambo factory has always impressed me with their concern and personal attention to each customer. This event underlined that even more. Stefan Winklemann was well spoken and succinct. Chief Engineer Maurizio was ready to delve into any specifics when we had a great conversation afterwards. Chief of Design Mannheim Fitzgerald was focused and relayed the clear message of their product.

    I noted that I overheard several F car enthusiasts say they felt more "customer love" from the L brand that they are thinking of trying it. Ferrari might consider taking this to heart.
