    And for those reading this who don't know where this event is, its at the Italian Cultural Centre, at the corner of Grandview Hwy & Slocan St. A free show both for participants and spectators. There'll be food, gelato, wine and music... And of course, Italian cars! If I remember correctly, both the Lamborghini and Ferrari dealerships will have displays.

    The new SL? Yeah they are sweet. There are tonnes of them around. Here in Toronto we use them as paper weights and door wedges.

    It is great to know there are so many nice cars in Vancouver, the city I spent a few year in. Just curious has anyone seen F50 in Vancouver? Is it possible to import a 1996 F50 into Canada?

    I think the only supercars are in eastern Canada. I know there was an f40 for sale in alberta and there are 3-4 enzo's in Ontario. BC has none of these. So no F50's not even remotley local.. And it is possible if you the money..

    The long way home
    Don't be too hard on Vancouver, there's alot of nice cars there! Weissach is delivering a ton of new Lambos! That's not super enough?! There's atleast a couple F50s out east, although a friend of mine swears up and down he saw one in Vancouver a couple years ago. I don't know for sure though, he's a little sketchy on his car identifying.

    BTW, there were 7 Enzos sold through FoO and (I think) 3 through FoQ. And the F40 in Calgary was never really for sale, just "advertised" for publicity... I guess it worked!

    I went for a short period of time. I was glad to see the 360 CS from Ferrari Maserati of Vancouver as well as the red 550 owned by a nice gentleman.

    IMO, it takes balls to show up at an italian car show with a Diablo replica and puting it for sale as well. I can't stand that!

    There really should be a law against replica cars. Go big or go home.

    Today, a black/dark blue (didnt get a close look) Maserati Coupe at Future Shop/Best Buy Corp. HQ on Northfraser Way in Burnaby.

    And an electric blue Lambo Gallardo going down 4th, I assume heading to Weissach.
