I crossed paths with a good friend of the owner multiple times on the display field. He eventually introduced himself & I learned he had driven the car repeatedly. Out of nowhere while we talked, he insisted I sit in it. It wasn't the type of invitation you turn down, & for a car guy it was a once in a life opportunity -- even it hadn't been at Pebble Beach for the famous Concours.
