    Going to be in Montreal for work this week and wanted to know if there's any cool ferrari stuff I have to see while in town? Any suggestions? I will be working most business hours. On the side I am working for cafe spa ferrari and Lamborghini news - check us out on Facebook and our site. Any great cars I should see, photo or have a great backstory? I'll be staying downtown! Je parle Francais, un peu...

    Cheers!
    Spencer.

    Spencer, apart from visiting the dealership, there really isn't much to see this time of year. Most of the prancing horses are tucked away in their stables, and their respective owners are either in hibernation, heading for warmer climates, or gearing up for the Christmas season.

    Personally never been there but the 'Newtown' bar/restaurant owned by Jacques Villeneuve might be a spot to have a drink

    Been there. Nice, pretty much like any other upwardly place on Crescent street.

    JV no longer owns it.

    Spencer rumor has it that there's a famous Canadian FerrariChat moderator residing in MTL.

    That industry is brutal. When owning a restaurant, you have to be hands on and present. JV wasn't and ultimately lost control of the place.
