Its actually a service, bodywork, restoration, racing, and tuning facility. I'll do a write up on them probably tonight or tomorrow.

Great place actually.

Let me be the first to say, I love the MC12, absolutely awesome car, when sitting in it, it feels amazing, and just driving around its great. Although I have to say I'm more fond of the Enzo and the FXX.

I'm going there later today again to continue doing photography and discuss some business stuff with them, if they have an FXX or other cars I'll snap more pictures.

I don't want to get anyones hopes up but I'm pretty sure I saw an F50 race car there, I'll check it out and take off the covers and see what it is exactly.

There are four at the facility now. Here are the pics. Two in the service area, one was just flown in, the other sitting on the lift, one in the boutique, and one upstairs on the second floor.



There you can see the other one on the lift.



The one that was just flown in.



The one on the second floor.



The interior.



The one from the boutique.



Rear end shot.

I'll snap more pics tomorrow.
thanks for pictures!

Origyns... were you able to take any pictures of the F50 GT? Or just anymore pictures in general. It looks like I could spend a whole week there and never get bored.

Didn't even get a chance to go up there to check it out, was too busy doing other stuff for them, I'm going there Friday so I promise to figure out what the hell that car is.

My friend was designing an exhaust for the FXX and modifying the maps to extract some more power out of it. The place has several customers that own FXX's and they all bring them there for servicing etc.

It is a nice place and I enjoy scrutinizing all the cars. Although it gets interesting when you realize how many things can be optimized on the cars, for example the MC12 has many things you can modify to make it faster design wise.

I've begun not to look at the cars as extremely rare and expensive, now I look at them from an engineering point of view and try to learn what a person can do to make it better and faster, more efficient.

lol its Eddie's but you'd lose your license pretty damn fast. Although I got lucky and made it down to Florida and back before getting a ticket a block away from the house.
