Quick Review: Maserati of Manhattan Grand Opening

Auto Purveyor · #1 10-02-2010, 12:17 PM

Deep pocketed Manhattanites now have more choice than ever when it comes to purchasing exotic sports cars. You have Tesla selling $100K electric roadsters in Chelsea. Then there is Manhattan Motorcars on 11th selling all variety of exotic nameplates like Bentley, Lotus, Lamborghini, Porsche, Panoz, Rolls Royce and Spyker. There is even a Ferrari experience store on 55th and Park Avenue, though no sales actually go on there (we’re still trying to figure that one out).

And now, the final chapter…a stand alone Maserati dealership in SOHO of all neighborhoods. The new 5,000 square foot showroom set the scene for a swanky grand opening party last night and there were no shortage of frills for the well-heeled guests in attendance to indulge in. Drinks were flowing, music was spinning and they even got celebrity chef Todd English to do live cooking demonstrations.

Nice post!

I had to take like a triple take on the third pic because I could've sworn it was a girl that I dated.

Gotta give'm kudos for having the balls to open a brand new Maserati Dealership in this economy with that product.

I wish them much success!

Looks like a great event. I'm envious of those who went. Funny thing is your sister looks like a girl I know as well, who's family happens to be in the car business too.
