    at first it was the **** but got boring and we would always get smoked by the young guys that work there. they need to change the track configuration and some banked turns.the black super kart is a waste,but it is fun to drift it around the turns

    I wouldn't see much financial gain from opening a Maybach franchise. In fact, I'd be surprised to see Maybach survive much longer.

    Maybach franchises are only available to Mercedes dealers, so that is not an option, not sure if you would want it to be anyway

    Hello all, allow me to introduce myself. My name is Adrian Hill, I am Graham Hills brother and am part of the Bentley St. Louis/ Maserati St.Louis sales team. This Is not an out & out 'plug' however,I have been a member here for a while & saw the posts so...
    I can confirm that indeed J.J & Graham did sign up with Lamborghini Spa In Italy in late December.
    We are all Very excited about it...We are building a brand new Showroom on the parcel of land opposite our Bentley & Maserati building & should break ground in April.We have all ready spec'd out 8 Lamborghinis of which two are sold in advance. (We are building a certain Baloon white LP640 Roadster which will be so insane it will raise your pulse !)

    Graham & J.J came back from 5 days in Italy with the Lamborghini people so impressed with the factory ,the quality of the latest offerings from Lamborghini & some really exciting new products that are being developed.
    As our business grows we will be under the banner of : "St. Louis Motorsports,llc" Doing business as :
    Bentley St. Louis , Maserati St. Louis, Lamborghini St. Louis and of course Ferrari Service of St. Louis ( the Only stand alone Ferrari authorized service center in the USA) Anyway... I will be happy to answer any questions or comments anyone has.
    Sincerely,
    Adrian Hill

    Thanks for saying Hi Adrian!

    We spent some time with Adrian at Crescent Classic this year, he much nicer than his brother Graham, no doubt about it!

    Adrian recently joined JJ and Graham and has been very well received in St Louis and already has a large group of satisfied clients. (a total gearhead with class!)

    Adrian I have client looking for a Spur, I will call you.

    Awesome to have you here on the board Adrian! I'm a local window shopper and am extremely excited for you guys! I can't wait for the new showroom to open - it sounds insane from the article in the St. Louis Business Journal!

    Baloon White is by far the sexiest color for the LP640!

    I hope you guys do great. How many Lambo's do you expect to sell a year? How many do you expect to keep in stock on average?

    I would like to make the first shameless plug to offer myself as "eye candy" for your Attractive Female Clients looking for male company to ride in their new "Italian Rocket Ships".............

    Is it just me or does it seem like poor timing, given the state of the economy and all?

    i would tend to agree with you, they seem to be carrying more inventory for longer, which isn't a good thing for a dealership. but, i'd imagine they're making it through, i'd imagine for those that would be buyers in the market for a 250,000+ car are probably holding off until the economy gets in better shape.

    I was over there the other day and they seemed to have moved a lot of inventory, at least 4-5 cars on the showroom had "sold" tags. maybe they wholesaled them out...but still, they aren't stuck with cars. Also, there are a lot of people in STL right now that had a lot of AB stock that is now a mountain of cash...so that might be helping their business.
