    Manssour,
    I'm from Beirut (born and raised -- I live in the US but my dad lives in Beirut). I can tell you beyond doubt there are several Ferraris that I have personally seen in Beirut (I visit somewhat regularly). As for whether they are on the board, no idea, but it would be interesting.

    Cheers,
    Jawad

    Its such a shame to own one of these there. I love my country as much as anyone but with all the crazy drivers and with all the gas stations fueling with bad gas or should I say 100 octane haha its quite a risk having something like this. We have an S550 at our house and its been hit twice in just one summer. I would kill somebody who hit my ferrari

    I am in beirut at the moment and i have seen quite a few ferraris on the road. there is a testarossa for sale at a car dealer just off the raouche corniche near the movenpick hotel. there is a car dealer called antipas which i drove past tonight and i saw a yellow, a blue and a silver 360 spider in his showroom among other cars but could not stop and take a closer look. there is an f355 which i see regularly driving around. a dubai registered 360 novitec tuned modena in yellow, an f430 in black, an f430 in red, a red 360 modena, a silver 550, these are just a sample of the cars i have seen so far and i havent travelled outside beirut, yes there is quite a few ferraris in lebanon both lebanese registered cars as well as ferraris from the gulf arab states visiting lebanon.

    5 Scuderia's?! Thats hard to believe! I also dont trust to many leb car dealers "Kilon fanaseen'! A friend of mine tried to order a 430 from them a year ago they told him they cant get him one...even in 18months! Means that the leb dealer has very little car allocation and also isnt agressive in obtaining cars through his dealer network.

    keep me posted...I am down in beirut in december, I will pas by the dealer as well as Antypas.

    You've got a reliable source here ;) wanna know the allocation? well here you go :

    - 5 430 Scuderias (I'm fourth on the list, October 08 delivery) (All Sold)
    - 1 F430 F1 Coupe
    - 1 F430 F1 Spider (Sold)
    - 5 599 GTB (All Sold)

    A total of 12 Ferraris is allocated to Lebanon for 2008. And BTW, 11 of 12 cars are sold...

    You can give me a call as soon as you land in Lebanon and then you let me do the rest...
