    Hello all,

    I attended the NY Auto Show Monday the 24th. The show all around was great as always but I was very disappointed to say the least to discover that Ferrari did not attend. The only Ferrari at the show was a black 430 next to the Aston Martin display on a rotating platform. There were no Ferrari insignias displayed on the wall as well as no Ferrari spokesperson or models. Just this 430 displayed randomly in a corner. One of the main points of the show for me as always was to see the Ferrari display. I had been anticipating seeing the 430 Scuderia but there was nothing.

    Last year featured a beautiful Ferrari display featuring if I remember correctly a 430, 612 & 599 with models, spokespersons and all the bells and whistles.

    Does anyone know what happened this year? Did Ferrari decide not to attend?

    Also there was no Maserati display at all...

    You can see the Scud up close and personal at the Ferrari showroom on Park Ave. It was still there last week I stopped by.

    That was odd...so who decided to just put a black F430 up on a random platform at the show...odd.

    NYIAS requested Manhattan Motorcars to put a vehicle up since Ferrari was not there this year. Ferrari is normally a big hit and does draw in people.... not sure why the local dealers did not go.
