    Down on Michigan Avenue by Motors row. I did not realize the new FIAT Alfa Romeo dealer was across the street from the FIAT showroom built in 1911 for the FIAT distributor . I am sure that is the oldest original FIAT dealer building in North America still standing. The building still needs restoration. Second photo is of the 1911 FIAT studio. They had a FIAT sign originally on the side of the building that was 2 stories high in the very old style FIAT lettering. Great to see Giulia's lined up next to the old building.

    Saw a GTC4Lusso near 55 and 80 on Saturday, sadly I was going the opposite direction and couldn't snap a pic. If the owner's on here, congrats!

    I was going to Cavallino this year but everything about it seems negative again. Anyone see an up to date event car list?

    What is LFSC like now as a Ferrari only dealership? (Koenigsegg doesn't really count) They have a lot of floor space.

    Thanks

    Not that different, although they have the old McLaren section under construction. They had more newer Ferrari's on display in the showroom but no pre 1975 classic Ferrari's. Not sure what they plan on doing yet.

    Nothing wrong with a tasteful self-spot.

    A few photos from LFSC. You can see they are well underway remodeling the old McLaren showroom. Should be interesting to see how it turns out. The place is huge!!

    Also went to Cooper Engineering and they had a few rare cars in for restoration. He told me not to post photos. You can see the 2 Alfa's on the top of this thread page when he was not as concerned about privacy. They were taken during an open house with Pete Brock:)
