    I can have a limited number of guests to these events. High Speed testing will be on the 16th and 17th (Near Paris) and Press days are the 28th and 29th. (Paris AUto Show) If you want to come in the capacity of Press you MUST contact Pininfarina not me.

    Others PM or email me ASAP. This will be a very limited #.

    Pininfarina won't pay for the trip, will they...? I have my press creds and a passport, but no "fly to Paris" fund... :)

    could you please tell me a little more about the high speed tests?
    where will it be, how long will it take, who will be present...?

    this might just be worth a 4 hour trip!
    :)

    They will be at a private test near Paris to make sure P 4/5 is fit. Various Press and friends will be there.

    .......and me, I will be happy to spend 10 hours on the road just to get to the Paris Auto show! ;)
    I will be bringing the finished and framed drawing of the P4/5 for a World premiere showing at the Paris Auto show, and for handing over to Jim on Friday the 29th.
    Also, I will be bringing a very limited number of prints of that drawing, for those of you who might be interested in obtaining a copy! :) (Of course I will be having my portfolios with my other drawings with me as usual, just in case someone wants to have a look)

    Phew, after weeks of broken computer/net, what a day to choose to check on ferrarichat. When you wrote of the high speed tests a while (month?) back my heart jumped - being on Europe I knew I'd drive anywhere on the continent if I had a chance to witness this.

    So.. my question - is anyone "eligible" to apply for the invites? If yes - I'd love to go... what would I need to do?

    Jim,

    I wish I could come to Paris and be a part of history, it is going to be something, I'm sure the high speed testing is going to be exciting, i'm sure it will produce amazing results. Looking foward to hearing about everything. For better or worse I have too many business obligations and other things going on this month to attend, i'm leaving the first week of Oct to europe for 2 months, otherwise I would join you.

    cheers

    eric

    That's enormously cool. Sorry that I can't make it (son's 1st birthday party is in that timeframe).

    Loved the P4/5 unveiling at Pebble, though. That was very generous of you to invite my wife and myself, and we thoroughly enjoyed it.


    We received your follow-up thank you notes in the mail and I was pretty speechless. You are quite proper, as well as thoughtful and generous.

    Agreed about Jim! THE most impressive and honorable gentleman I have ever met in my life. I can only dream to be like him in my future.

    Can't we switch it to be tomorrow? My dad is spending a day in Paris. :p

    Or maybe you could just delay it until I get enough cash to get a ticket over there. ;) haha

    when reading all P4/5 articles i notice that the sentence " a dream come true"
    is always going round.

    I dream to have a ride in the P4/5, hope my dream come true ...

    Due to limited space and previously invited press the test days are not available.
