    I went to the F Auto Show Preview dinner last night. Way cool. They had several racecars including a Daytona, a 575GTC, Nick Saparno's Maser 450S,and 412P 0850 which they all started up inside. The Maser MC12 was there and it is AMAZING. MUCH better looking than the Enzo. Saw a lot of friends and checked out the show before it opens.
    THe BMW 635 has the Bangle back and is mucho ugly. The P CGT in black is very impressive. The Ford GT in silver is very fine. New Bentley coupe sparkled. The Maybach remains a joke. The McLaren/MB seemed silly to me. The new MB coupe looked like a bad jag or a C. It was even painted jag green.
    The Paris to Dakar winning Mitsu was fantastic. They auctioned off the first Maser quattroporte. It went for 170K.
    A great evening which raised over 700K for the East side Settlement House.

    Jim,

    Sounds great, sorry I missed it. Especially since I live around the corner.

    Will make up this weekend though.

    I attended the press preview during the day yesterday - had lots of fun with fellow f chatter KennyH today. I was too tired to post pix last night. I did get some great shots of the Ferrari banquet display - several gorgeous vintage and current racers. Got intimate with the MC12 too. Best moment for me was when they fired up the 575 GTC right there in the Crystal Palace. I'll do my best to get the pix posted later tonight.
