    Does anyone know Silvano?
    I used to see this car everytime i was on my way to my cafe.
    I never stopped by his restaurant, but am curious to see how his car is.
    I guess i could've just walked over since my cafe is like 4-5 blocks from his restaurant....hmmmm

    well i was just cruising on hamburg turnpike around 1130pm, and this yellow 360 flew by me. As soon as he passed me, I stepped on it. Then he let me go in front of him, and we both flew past cars (not sure how fast). I felt bad for my car, since it only had 300 miles on it, so i kept slowing down constantly trying to make him pass me; but he basically just stayed about 2 inches away from my rear bumper during all this time. Then we both pulled over, and it turns out the passenger in his car knew me, so we talked for a little bit.

    ( yea i know it was reckless, but i just got excited and felt that i had full control of my car.)

    the cafe has metered parking in front, room enough for 4 cars..however, it's still difficult to find parking there.
    We can though double park for about 10 min...enjoy some ice or frozen coffee with a heavy discount and admire the ferraris =)
    We can then do a drive by to "Da Silvano" and see if the Challenge stradale is parked out in front and ask to see the owner...if he's not avail...maybe we can all do brunch at the resturant this weekend?

    i don't know?

    hey Hubert if you need a ride to CC, let me know, i think my friend wants to go check out the stradale and see if he likes it...
    btw i went there with Noah this morning...your car looks fantastic..love the color scheme..

    the owner of Da Silvano was one of the first people to get the new Maserati in the New York area. He has a yellow one for sure, and I think a blue one.
    He always parks it out front. I dont know about him having the CS, he might have jsut gotten it.

    Forget about parking in that area, I live around there, and there is no way we are going to find spots for 8 cars, more less 1. Especially in front of Da Silvanos. Cops are very strict in that area too, with double parking/metered/and hydrant parking. I should know got a ticket parked in front of Da Silvanos in April.

    da silvano restuarant if i'm remember correctly is the one on 6th ave right off houston st right?
    well he does have a challenge CS, i always see it on my way to work...you cannot miss it =)

    I wonder how it is to ride it in NYC...hmmmm

    360 modena, or according to the dealer "whatever the replacement will be by the time its your turn". Ordered it back in december, and according to the dealer it would take around a year and 6 months.

    Have heard horror stories on the waiting time for this one...especially for those that aren't Ferrari "regulars." Good luck with this.

    Damn. That stinks. I am probably going on the list for the 420 when the dealer by me opens up. I am curious to find out how long the wait will be. I spoke to the salesperson already but he said we will discuss it when the dealeship opens.
