How did you get in during the press days?
Also, I was so ticked that the FXX was gone on opening day! The Ferrari booth babe said it was a customers car and they wanted it back after a week on display.

However, I don't think it will work as well on the big LS, it might be better with a slightly deeper, classier candy apple or maroon color. The Matador Red has an orange hue to it under bright sunlight & might be a little too sporty for the LS460 IMHO.

As for the LS, definately can't do Matador Red. It needs a darker but glossy maroon color.

While the interior room on the L is nice if you're a chauffeur, I prefer the looks of the SWB one.
