Default Look what I saw....

I had a rare opportunity to get a tour of the only Ferrari dealership in Michigan the other day.
The dealer name is Jack Cauley Ferrari. He also owns the Chevy dealer next door. The cars were awsome, but look at what I saw when I got there.

There was a vette parked outside of the dealership with huge 20" HRE 547s on it.

Then we walked into the Ferrari dealership and low and behold a Ferrari 360 Modena with 19" 547's just like the ones I am installing on my car. I have pictures, but I have to resize them because they are too big to post. The lip on the rear of the Ferrari was amazing. I will let the pictures do the talking.
Now I am even more excited to mount my wheels in the spring.
Later.
MIKE
p.s. It costs 5-$6000 to come in for regular maintenance at this dealership for a Ferrari.
:eek:

Mike....U will definatly need to get some cross-drilled slotted rotors (and the Supra TT brake upgrade) when u put ur wheels on.

Can't wait to see the pics of those HRE's on ur GS.
