Means Ferrari and lamborghini let him up close to their cars...Public are not allow up close unless interested buy them...But otherwise,they have a fence right around the cars.

unfortunately cho, you have to know the dealers personally. They don't really let ppl in, my gf drives an E46 M3 and they still didn't let me in the M3 CSL podium. The Lamborghini and Ferrari stands however are much more forthcoming since i've met the dealers a few times. But you can try and ask them if they'll let you in tho. Enjoy the show!

my guess is you'd have to do alot more than that..!

think yourself lucky to even have such cars at your show.. we get nothing like that over west here. :x
i think the best i've seen at any of the perth shows was the Diablo race car -- no other lambo's or ferrari's, sadly. not even any bm's or mercs usually, either. argh!

urm..the murcielago has a really nice colour when you catch one in person. It's got this deepness to it which you can't ascribe to a particular chroma of colour. I would love to get it in that colour. Mind you the Orange and Yellow are gorgeous as well, but it's nice sometimes to get a colour not many others own.

Regarding back stage entries, It's like going in to the pits during a F1 race (which i get to do too ). You get to go inside the car, take photos and generally act all geeky and overly excited while other show goers gawk and get pissed that you're inside and their not.

So Cho_888, have you gone yet? You should've gone today when Kimi gave a speech to the crowd. You could basically go up to him and make funny faces; he was really that close.

i just saw this, the radio in the 360 cs, i dont like it, its like separated from the car, it reminds of very bad cars in Mexico, and the whole interior almost does not have anything special, the radio very simple, the air cond. also very simple, but maybe its only in this ferrari because it is meant strictly to drive fast, well most of the time not to look good(which it does)
