Default March 17: yellow Enzo, F360, F430, F550, F612, Gransport

Some more dealership pics.. they are not the best stuff, but well, you don't see Enzos on the road every day, do you?

This one is damn sexy, some of you might remember it note the nice Enzo signature on the seats and it was placed perfectly not to be taken in picture, right?

Just a preview here, click any pic to find the whole 20 high-res pics update

Sure, 360 are "common", no more in the news and not yet a classic, but I still love them, berlinetta or spider


This is "in the news".. it was my 3rd or 4th F430



A 550 in Rosso Fiorano isn't a common sight I think


Same goes for a blue Scaglietti


The rest of the Gransport pics, mostly from behind in this update





Now tell me.. you see an Enzo placed like that in your local dealership.. how could you resist the temptation? I was there for the Gransport that day, but HAD to take pics of this beauty!



The Modena seems to big compared to it! Weird!

thanks for the pics man
a shame they didn't put a F430 next to the Enzo, but still very weird how small the Enzo looks by a 360.

Well, some days before, after the closing I saw a red 430 on the left and the red 360 where it is in my pics.. sadly the red 430 the day after was where you see it above :bah:

Nice ones, the F430 and Enzo are just awesome I can't wait till the F430 starts arriving in our dealership (probably in 15yrs time ).
I think they need to give the Enzo a proper clean, its dirty around the exhaust tips - maybe you could volunteer for this job TT?
Thanks for the updates, mostly I don't like dealership pics as much as 'normal' sightings but that place is so nicely spaced that great pics are possible

I would clean an Enzo every day if allowed to

And don't worry, will be back on normal sightings from next update

No wonder I never see any Ferrari's, Switzerland is hordeing them all!
There is also an F40 in there! I'm jealous TT!

Excellent pics though, the Enzo and 360 is my new desktop. Is the yellow Enzo the same one that you took pics of a long time ago and the dealer was gonna give you a test ride to use the pics, then the guy who owned it said no?
How many Enzo's have you seen now? LOL

Dont' listen to Dingo, I like the dealer pics!

I went to the Minneapolis Auto show on Sunday, got to check out a Maserati Gransport and the Quattroporte. Both are just as nice as I had imagined. I wasn't too hot for the Gransports interior though, it was bright blue leather. If it were some other color, it would look great. The car was a dark blue, it was beautiful. I wouldn't mind owning a Gransport one bit.

I also checked out the new 997's and a yellow Carrera GT. Hot HOT HOT. Nabbed me a cool 997 poster too. I don't have a digicam, so no pics, but my friend took pics. He was supposed to email them to me, but has yet to do it.

hey I have nothing against them (I even went to my dealer for a few pics yesterday), I just prefer real world pics because they have nicer backgrounds usually and its more of a challenge to find the cars

You can see more of the F40 here: http://www.swisscarsightings.com/fer...alership6.html it was in Geneva museum for some years untill lately.

Yep, same one, but you know, now the car is at the dealership since many months.. if he doesn't want ppl to take pics of it, he can take it home the poor baby!

How many Enzo's have you seen now? LOL
I saw 6 Enzo (motorshow don't count):

2 rosso corsa (in one I had a ride)
1 rosso scuderia (in a future update)
1 black
2 yellow

not that many compared to Monaco ppl

motorshow or delaership are for sure not the best place to see supercars, but when it is either there either not, it's still a good idea to check them out in such environnment. A car in the metal is always different compared to pics

I'd already been close to an Enzo and it doesn't look a big car.....

The Gransport looks great in that color. I don't know if it's the same posted some days ago....

It may be nothing compared to people in Monaco, but you've got me beat 6-0! LOL
And I've only seen an F40 once, but I got to see it scream down Thunder Alley at Road America!

Great pics TT! Dang, that is an impressive dealer, I wonder how much they pay in insurance every month for all those cars...

I remember one of our Australian members once posted a pic of an F40 next to a 360 and, in comparisson, the 360 looked huge. I am always shocked by how small most of the supercars really are. Thanks for the pics, TT! 8)
