575SA is a WA car and is glorious in Grigio Silverstone over Cuoio -- manual 'box too! F599GTB has an amazing interior -- black "Daytona" style seats with red inserts. What was really statistically-improbable was that there was not one single 360 present!!
Lawrence, it was terrific to see you again! My thanks to all the Canadians who assisted in this trip, you made it a grand weekend! Great pic of your son, cute! Dave
Lawrence, fantastic photos - priceless expression on your son's face! Thank you to all the Canadians who attended, our hosts were very gracious and polite. This was a very fun reunion between two International FCA regions but also an opportunity to make new friends. Victoria was a perfect setting! The city is a proper blend of scales; big enough to have fantastic 5 star hotels and facilities, but small enough to have all the attractions (shopping, restaurants, ferries, tourism) just footsteps away from our hotel, with drives along the waterfront or in the countryside being so very close. It was repeated numerous times that the city is very "Car friendly" and we discovered this was so very true It lacks of a big city mentality (aka cops) and we had some great driving routes. Time went so fast from our Friday departure drive (just 97 miles from Tacoma), our evening "Welcome Dinner", to our Saturday winery drive for lunch and finally the dinner at the Marina. Those of us who stayed for the fourth day to see Victoria's 18th annual Symphony Splash were treated to an early morning gathering at Ottavios for a light breakfast, followed by Garth Clare's suggestion of a drive West along the Coast to Sooke. Geoff Snow introduced us to other Ferrari owners, Erin and Dave, who took us on their favourite motorcycle routes in the twisties (THIS WAS VERY FUN!) for the route up. We ended up at the Fuse restaurant on the cove for a wonderful view for refreshments and lunch. In the evening, after we returned to Victoria, we were stunned at the Symphony Splash party the City puts on for 40,000+ people on the waterfront and on the Parliment grounds. Several Canadians asked what events the Americans have coming up, please see the club website at: http://www.nwrfca.org/events/ and consider joining us! Thank you!

Kate and I had a great time on this trip, and wanted to thank James and all of our Canadian hosts for making Victoria feel like home during our stay. Wyman, I had a fun time with you riding sidekick, and I know Kate enjoyed riding in the 348 with "drives like a lady" James. BTW, I followed James a bit through some twisties, and it's clear to me that Jeff's ribbing is just that. Jeff in his Carrera was no slouch on those decreasing radius turns! Garth (or Kathy), whenever you're ready to divest of your gorgeous black/tan 400i, please let me know... that's one sweet ride and one of my fav's! Mr. N's 599 has the perfect interior, and I'll give a +1 to Paul's comments on it. David's got a nice BMW M3, and was just as fun to chase in the twisties as Scott's Dino. I can't recall the woman's name who had the Carrera sideways in traffic, but it was a sight to experience! To everyone else my feeble brain can't recall as I type this, thanks for a very memorable trip! I hope some of you find your way down south before the end of summer so we can have you join us on drives where we have the home-town advantage
I believe that was Erin. Here is a link to a slideshow of my photos http://beta.snapgenie.com/MN6F7PU1 Enjoy!
... And to any highway patrol officers that may be viewing this thread I want you to know that the above statement is accurate and correct!

Who's that little dude driving that Gallardo with the crazy paint job? Looks like he's getting a parking ticket....or a fine for being a public eyesore!......Punk!
Nice haul Marcel! What happened to the rarity of the RR? Punks. I have to agree with Lucazzo on that Gallardo...it ain't pretty. Unique, but not my kind of paintjob. I guess I'm not that desperate for attention though. That LP640 looks sweet.
In the second pic of the Tattooed Gallardo, you snaped a pic of Jason THorgalsen, were you with him at the time, or do you even know him???? his screen name on fchat is speedracer38. btw or at least i think its him...anyways!
Nice Pics! Im guessing that Gallardo is a wrap and not paint. I could be wrong. Im guessing he was getting a ticket for no rear plate. You can see he has a plate in his hand. Cop was prbably making him put the play back on.
Yeah the guy in the lambo was getting a ticket, i dont know why... and i didn't go there with speedracer38, i have no idea who he is..
maybe it was nice but I am still pretty conservative and for me that car is big pos )))) I still prefer stock supercars - tuning is fo EVO's and STI's IMHO Yellow CGT , hm dunno.Was it cool in yellow ? Love black & white CGT's
He's holding a license plate in one of the pictures and it is easy to see that he's got no front plates mounted...hence the ticket and on rodeo drive no less...pretty embarassing
