    I'd like to go to this if I can tonight. Do you know if Park Place is doing this as well? It's closer to me.

    Oops, didn't know that. I went to the event, and to my delight, they had a GranTurismo S Automatic (my favorite) there in black with black leather and red stitching. Absolutely gorgeous.

    The GranCabrio is gorgeous as well. The bordeaux and avorio (spelling/word? [not familiar with the very pale beige color]) interior is really nice. The paint color may be one of my new favorite Maserati colors. The very pale wood used in the car is unusual and unique. I've never seen that used in a car before. Perhaps the neatest feature is that it comes with the 4.7L engine that the GranTurismo S comes with instead of the 4.2L the base model GranTurismo comes with.

    Definitely my favorite currently produced car. I love sitting in these and they are very fun to look at. The details are magnificent.

    Do you go to Burger King and order a Big Mac?

    Was pretty clear BOARDWALK FERRARI, not the other guys.

    Yeah, I like the 4-seat format a little better. The previous vert had a really cool interior, just the exterior blended in with other cars a little bit. The GranTurismo is a knockout though. It has a little bit of a Ferrari 599 look to it, with more aggressively styled headlights.

    I was sitting in the backseat of the GranTurismo S coupe, and I had plenty of legroom (at least 3 inches of knee room) and an inch of headroom. Not bad! I'm 6 feet tall for reference. It was actually very comfortable.

    I'm simply trying to provide a clue when one clearly doesn't exist.

    I'll go back to my lemonade now.
