Another Guy's Day At The Dealer's

Couldn't imagine a finer day spent with the kid.

 

- Well at least they let you down in the lower level showroom to take photos. Last time I was there, the stairs were roped off and I was told that this was to prevent people from leaning on their cars. I can appreciate their concern for the inventory, but it did make me feel kinda unwelcome.

IMHO

 

Oddly, I got a similar response when I went to Continential to try and purchase a Ferrari in thier inventory. The attitude was sort of, "Excuse me sir, do you know how much that car costs?"

 

Was the 2011 Verde Ithaca Superlegerra still upstairs? I dropped my G off friday for some work and it was covered but we took it off so I could drool a bit.

 

Interestingly, the Argento Nurburgring 550 parked next the black Scuderia on Friday seems to be missing

 

Does Continental always have that many vintage Ferraris? Is that the one that was roped off and unfriendly?

 

I just picked the car up yesterday . So now it should be around Chicago for spottings and definitely running around at the Autobahn (unlike some Ferrari dealers in this neck of the words, the Lambo guys are both behind you and supportive when you want to track your car).

 

Congrats, we need pictures!

 

glad you stopped by and were well attended to at our store Lamborghini Chicago/Fox Valley Motorcars. hope you enjoyed your time with us.

David...Hot car!! i was all over it while Billy was doing the PDI . If i can, i hope to come out and see you and Gabe do your thing. Just let us know when. BTW, the silver 2-11 did the same thing you did. i think turn 5 though. said the tires werent warm and got a little aggressive.

TJ, I heard about that. Yikes!

When I was at the Nurburgring recently, the race shop I rented a car from had TWO 2-11's that were in pieces. That thing is a tricky son of ***** at the limit. I'm surprised we went as long as we did without any more trouble .

Tell the owner of the silver car that having a 3 psi different between front and rear, like 24 front, 27 rear, makes the car a lot more stable. It's almost undrivable loose if you go with the stock psi's cold.

Carsleuth, I'll post some in this thread shortly.

 

thanks for the info. i wil let him know. i think that is what he is doing but may be 5 psi, either way i will pass it along.

Looked like you both had fun, thanks for sharing pics!

 

I always receive a much warmer welcome with or without my four kids when we travel to the Lake Forest Ferrari dealer.

My first trip to their location restored my faith in Ferrari dealers after stopping in at other 'locations'.

They are always friendly, knowledgeable, and go out of their way in sales and in service to help.

I highly recommend taking the lad there for a day.
