FIAT is the parent company of Ferrari. They aquired Ferrari back in the seventies if I recall correctly, but Ferrari is self sustainable within the group. The previous President of Ferrari, is now the President of FIAT after Agnieli the grandson of the founder passed away. FIAT also owns Alfa Romeo, Maserati, Lancia, Abarth and Autobianchi as well as trucks, farming equipment etc. While they dont have a presense in North America, FIAT is a huge company around the world, kind of like what Ford and GM are.

BTW , awesome pics guys, It must have been a really amazing day!

Nice pics Luis, I see you were able to conserve your film for the 360s, 430s, and assorted other F-cars... I saw the F1 cars and FXX's and before I knew it my camera was full.

Thanks Danny, For that info on FiAT, I didn't know that FiAT was so BIG as a Motor Company! When I see FiAT it always reminds me of the X/19 and the 128 I guess because those were the only cars that I remember seeing here in the US.
