Re: The Parx Supercar Show - 10th & 11th January, 2015

VIP passes basically mean you can go beyond the steel barricades placed so the maximum you'll do is soak in the details. Touching the cars is an absolute strict no-no and there is security to ensure that.


Also, the cars will be opened and the engines periodically fired up from time to time but only by the owners - having a VIP pass doesn't give you much more, just a slightly less congested experience of walking around the paddock.

I really look forward to this weekend, especially seeing the LaFerrari as it will be the first 'limited series' Fezza I will gawk at in disbelief!!

The LaFerrari, photographed by Supercar Paparazzi just before it was shown off to the press.

Also, I read that the car will not be driven on Sunday just displayed. What a massive shame that is but perhaps a practical decision given the mad crowd swells that accompany the cars during the Rally itself.

Sorry A.K! A bit unclear after your post. Does the car belong to GHS or is it a deal made with Ferrari to showcase the car here?

In any case though, Kudos to GHS for sharing this with us petrolheads.

The car does not belong to GHS. Its Ferrari's own car bought down from Abu Dhabi. I guess this must be Ferrari World Abu Dhabi's display piece.
However, I guess GHS has one on order as I do not think Ferrari would let anyone take their car for a relatively unsignificant rally. Or GHS has pulled some big strings.

Well, his relationship with atleast the previous management of Ferrari is known to many. I wont be surprised if he managed to get one for himself. Thanks for the info A.K.

I don't think it's Ferrari World Abu Dhabi's display car as my friend posted a pic with the Ferrari world LaFerrari a couple of days ago.

The F430 Scuderia is also there, plus a whole lot of superbikes on display too.

Yes saw pics of the Kerala 458 in fb sometime back, its in Mumbai for the show. Going by the miles the owner covers, has it been driven down all the way from Calicut?

The Surat Huracan might also be there by tomorrow.
