Product availability @ LFSC & Continental?

There are more wealthy people now versus 1991. Also Ferrari's production limits has helped keep demand up and supply low. It will be interesting to see what happens if Ferrari produces a car under the F430. Will that hurt demand on the F430 or its successor? Only time will tell.

 

The fact that they no longer had a stand at the Chicago Auto Show tells me their order books must be completely full.

Also when you look at the club activities the local dealers used to sponsor, it seems this year is slim pickings. To me that all points to one direction: Enough orders to last a while.

 

I always thought it to be an odd decision NOT to set up at the auto show because you don't have to. What better way to underscore your exclusivity than to display the cars that the public can't possibly get their hands on. You always have to be looking to the future, and to capture the imagination of tomorrow's car nuts today. The other message that sends to people is, when they do display, they need the business. I seem to recall that costs were the reason, but in the grand scheme, how much does it cost them?
