The Celebration of Exotic Cars is coming up in April in downtown Celebration. I may be showing the GT at this event. This is a great event if you are interested in showing your car. For more info checkout the website at http://www.celebrationexoticcars.com/

Does anyone know of other events in the Sunshine State?

I talked to the guy who is organizing the Celebration of Exotic Cars event and he said that there will be a couple of other GTs in the field besides my car. His goal is to raise $200K for Make a Wish this year. This is a great event. If you live in the Orlando area you may want to come out for the day.

We're having our monthly Cars and Coffee event in Lake Mary on the 25th. It's a good way to meet other exotic owners who do shows and track events etc..

It's just a few blocks from my place, so I might swing by. Thanks for the heads up.

I will be at the cars and coffee event at Lake Mary. I will bring my Ford GT.

I went last month with the Ferrari F430F1. A great time. Dwight did a great job picking an ideal location for car guys to drink coffee, eat sweet sticky things and talk car stuff.

I have registered my Ferrari for the Celebration charity event.

Nothing like reviving a post from almost 7 years ago, but since it already existed, I figured why not?
Is anyone planning on attending the FOS in Orlando? They will have a Pagani Huayra at the VIP reception. I am definitely going to attend, any other takers? Gary?

We are also going to attend the C&C this Saturday at Dupont Registry. We will most likely stay overnight at the Vinoy hotel near the Yacht Basin.

Any other takers?

Also, that P-51 mustang (Precious Metal) that Chip posted about is going to be there with Thom Richard. Should be a pretty cool event, we've been to 3 FOS before and it's always a good time.

Well... I see lots of celebrations of cool cars, but I don't see any GT celebration. Nevertheless, I am up for this...

Be careful Gary. That might be the pool boy.
Always look for the Adam's apple.

With a body like that, should I care? :)

See you tomorrow at C&C PM me with the time you are planning on arriving, I haven't been to the Dupont C&C before. All I know is that you have to get there "early"

I did that the first year along with 6 or 7 other GTs and we didn't even get a mention at the awards at the end of the show. Pretty sad.

I'm a little down on the "wealth" concept. Especially since I don't have any. :lol

You would have some money if you stopped buying all those parts.

Where are the headers???

Lose the muffler, Gary. Get the rear exits. If you get the LTH's, you'll sound like a lawyer's car. Yeeesh;)

I would have some money if I didn't listen to you. FRPP rotors are here. Wheels are in transit. Harvest moon is full. Life is good.
