Inside The Mind Of An Automotive Geek

I know, I know. You are so excited about the event. I mean, who is not? Imagine the most gorgeous Maserati luxury cars and sports cars lined up in front of you? Don’t tell me you’ll not drool over their elegant designs and well engineered styles. Well, certainly not me because just like you, I am also a huge fan of Maserati cars.

And now, there they go again, and they will be in New York mind you. The 63rd Annual Columbus Day Parade will be happening on the 8th day of October 2007 and several Maserati cars will go lining up at the said show to pursue its goal of helping a particular charity by auctioning a Maserati car. Yes, and don’t be surprised if you will see the Powerful 2008 Maserati GranTurismo on the event as it goes on raffle. You don’t want to miss this rare chance, do you?

One among the Maserati cars you will see on the event will be the 1929/1931 Maserati Spyder which is equipped with a super power V16. Imagine a car with that much muscle in its engine. Don’t you think it’s scary? Well I don’t think so. The car was actually famous because of its 1829 record to a 2007 Quattroporte Automatic four-door sedan that goes 0 to 60 in 5.5 seconds.

A parade will follow after the show. The show will also use the 2008 Maserati GranTurismo for the raffle and the proceeds will be going directly to the Columbus Citizens Foundation and will be used for its scholarship program. The charity also is the organizer of the Columbus Day Parade.
