    Did you see that California Blue on cream F355 berlinetta? Wow! How gorgeous!

    I am wondering if any of you knows the gentleman, Dick, who owns the car. I met him briefly at the beginning of the show and had a nice chat. I attempted to say goodbye to him at the conclusion of the show and establish contact, but he could not be found. If anyone knows the gentleman, would he be kind enough send me a private message and forward along any available contact information?

    I spoke with the owner briefly. Great looking car in Azzuro California!
    I spent a good amount of time Saturday speaking with the owners of the yellow F50. Really nice couple from Latrobe, Pennsylvania. The F50 is really a beautiful car!!!

    Dick, that's one beautiful 355. I can't imagine there are too many Cali Blue 355s running around the Sarasota area. By any chance would this be yours? I saw it back in the summer time at a restaurant (don't remember the name) right across from Hooters.


    Edit: Oh would you look at that, the name is on the sign. Big Al's I guess.... haha.

    Gentlemen... Any thoughts on the difference in paint colors - azurro california and grigio alloy?

    I have an F430 spider in (apparently) same color, yet have been told my car is grigio alloy...

    Thanks!

    the azzuro california tends to be a deeper (richer?) hue of blue than the grigio alloy, which is more of a silvery-blue, in my opinion. both colors have the ability to appear really differently in photographs, depending on lighting. i think the blue in AZ california is definitely more pronounced than that of the grigio alloy blue.
