    Hi guys,

    We're expecting delivery of our GTO @ the Factory at the end of the first week of June (probably 2nd or 3rd).

    spec:
    Grigio medio, black challenge-style wheels, yellow callipers, grey/black alcantara interior w/yellow stitching, carbon bits here and there, matching luggage w/yellow stitching -- see why below ;)

    My girlfriend and I decided to christen it with a solid roadtrip:

    -Milan
    -Lugano
    -Geneva
    -Dijon (or somewhere in Burgundy)
    -Reims
    -Paris
    -LE MANS June 11-12
    -Bordeaux
    -Barcelona
    -Cannes
    -Home (Monaco)

    Roughly 3500 kms in 10 days.

    We've been to just about all of these places except Le Mans. Our biggest curiosity is how to go about lodging/watching the race. Is there going to be an fchat/Ferrari group? Any recommendations on grandstands/hotels/inns? Parties/Events?

    Any and all info/recommendations on the event or long-distance driving a gto, would be greatly appreciated.

    Best,
    Max

    Hi Jim,

    Will PM you soon when delivery and trip details are finalized.

    Hope all is well,

    Best.

    EDIT: Coffee must not be hitting yet... If this is the P4/5C's race I'm pretty sure we'll drive up there... depending on whether or not we're sick of 10 days in the GTO or that she's sick of us :)
