    Actually in Pakistan now, but we were docked in Jebel Ali, the container port for Dubai, on the 6th... and I thought... just maybe at the local Ferrari dealer... you know... they might just have one of those.... new... 458's.... maybe.... after all, big parties back home unveiling..... fingers crossed....

    So my driver misses the turn, and we have to loop back around and there goes the car out of the garage and onto the highway.... I got off a quick shot, there went the opportunity... and that was that.... wow... what a fantastic sound !!!

    Went inside, took a few shots of the dealership, (notice Al Jumeirah hotel in the background of the 3rd photo.. ) and talked with the sales manager... he said the mechanics had just taken the car out for a test drive to make sure there were not any issues....

    I waited a few minutes and they returned.... the manager said they were going to clean it up and prep it for the new owner, and as I had to make a lunch appointment, I returned later to get a few shots of the clean car....

    you've seen many excellent photos so won't bore you with that, but this is the
    20th !!
    delivered by Al Thayer Motors in Dubai..... yes.... the 20th 458 !!

    so... no bikinis... no babes... just the car... and a cool experience... and the tallest building in the world.... (just because it was there)

    Wonderful pics! My wife and I honeymooned in Dubai and had a wonderful time out in Jumeirah. I know they are hurting out their with their economy but there is so much wealth spread amongst the citizens of the UAE. It's not surprising they've had as many 458s delivered.
