Hi all, i did another car show in Woodley park in Van Nuys Ca, but this time it was for all Italian cars ONLY!! It was the best car show i have ever done!! Sure there was alot of cars worth alot more $$ than mine, but i got way more attention!! That is one reason why i own two. Howie.

Great photo Howie....you should show both Mangusta's side by side

Congrats, Howie!!
Atlanta Italian car day was new for me, too.
Awards were by make, and Manny won in the "Open" category, making him a Bi-coastal winner.

Looks great! Do you call that your "Black Beauty", My silver car also has the chrome wheels. Howie.

I love it ! When i get to East coast in January I'll enjoy those events also.

PS: N J ...Im going thru Marietta on the way to my house in SC I'll stop by and see you and Manny

Thanks, Howie! I swore-off black cars after my third one, but here I am again, obsessing over every little smudge. I dust him off after every outing, before covering him with a sheet in the garage. ("Tucking him in", as it were.)
Actually, I'm not a fan of the 18" wheels or the chrome finish, so I'm replacing them with silver OEM 17"s. I also plan to chrome or silver P/C the grille, because in black, it gets 'lost' on the black body. On other colors, as an accent the black grille looks good, but black on black...meh.

Super, John. I'm about 8 miles and four turns off of I-75. Just remember to leave room to take those two 18" front wheels I have boxed up for you .
I'm not sure of your schedule, but on Dec. 29th we're taking a ride from the East side of Atlanta to the Microcar museum in Madison, GA. Bruce Weiner is auctioning off the whole kit and caboodle in April, so this is a great destination for the annual "Polar Bear Run".

I should be in the area around Jan10-11, but will keep you informed.

Here's a couple of Manny at the local first Sunday "Caffeine and Octane" on June 1, '13...

Way to go N J..!!!

Come on all you Mangusta owners, lets post some photo's of your pride and joy...
