    Today I saw many Ferrari but there were all at FoQ.

    I dunno if its worth saying this ...I saw a red Dodge Viper (the original wheels were in yellow)! Honestly I found it look good..., it looked even more agressive.
    I saw this on rue St-Hubert at around 2:30 pm.

    I wonder if it is the yellow 360 that was at FoQ showroom about a month ago. I drove by yesterday and did not notice if the car was in the showroom.

    I feel the pain of Montreal Spotters. I was there for a few days earlier this week, and although the weather was not great, I didnt see a single car worth noting. I saw as many Volvos as Porsches I'd see in a single day in Toronto. And as many Porches as I'd see higher end cars in Toronto (Ferrari's, Lambo's, etc.).

    Wait, I did see a red 360 with a Challenge grill, but it was on the way home. On the 401. In Bowmanville.

    Ah well, Grand Prix weekend is coming up!

    Yes there will be lots of Ferraris out on that weekend, but check out the liscence plates, mostly out of towners. The local guys will be out with their F-Cars, but don't blink, cause now you seen them and now you don't. LOL!!!

    In little Italy tonight 8h30 spotted a 360 spider grigio top down, and a blue gallardo. Probably would have seen more later, but my daughter was tired and wanted to go home(only 12 yrs old). The only that she interested in was the great food. LOL!!

    Spoke to a few merchants about GP weekend events in Little Italy and it's official, there is nothing going on as far as closing the street and ferrari parades. They tried, but at the end it fell apart. There is probably some squabbling within the merchant's association. What a shame, last year was a blast,rain and all.

    Oh yes, there will be the ducati club about 40 bikes, they are already committed.

    You have won the prize for the biggest understatement of the year!! I worked for three years in Little Italy, and all I can say is that when things go well, they squabble, when things go bad...they REALLY SQUABBLE!! LOL!!! The problem with this outcome, is that the merchant's association loses its credibility with the various clubs and festival participants when it pulls sh*t like that.

    Monday evening (yesterday) around 8h30 at AutoStrasse Porsche a nice yellow F355 coupe. The owner must have been aware I was watching from a distance, when he drove off I got a full throttle acceleration, the high pitch whistle is something else!

    This morning I had to do some errands in ville St-Laurent on a beautiful sunny day. Did I see a Ferrari? Nope (note: I was on the road for at least 1h30 going there and there)
    I did see 2 Mercedes-Benz SL 55 AMG...they're nice cars!

    Well guess what.....yes I returned to FoQ to see some Ferrari! :)

    Is there still nothing going on wrt any Ferrari based events? I'm coming over on Friday morning with the Modena and hope to have some fun. Of course that shouldn't be TOO difficult during F1 weekend in Montreal.

    Hi Bernie,

    I was in Ottawa this weekend for the parade thing, I was speaking with Evange who is the Treasuror for the Quebec Chapter of FCA and Cafe Vanessa Event came up. He seems to be under the impression that the St. Leonard Ferrari Party is on Friday Night and they are still waiting to hear from Cafe Vanessa for confirmation. I think Friday night would be ideal for Cafe Vansesa if they are looking for a bigger turnout. They would be able to have members from the two clubs since both clubs have an event on Thursday night.

    Let me know what you have heard so far.
