Lamborghini Chicago Unveils New Showroom
Only an extravagant, over-the-top party would be
sufficient for the Lamborghini Chicago Showroom
Grand Opening – and that’s exactly what they got.
Over 450 guests enjoyed the Official Grand Opening of the new Showroom on April 6, 2007, and
they would be sure to mention it was a night to
remember. To help commemorate the event, Italian foods from local restaurants, sounds from a DJ,
a luxury fashion show, and specialty cocktails were
present
throughout
the night.
And to help
make it all
seem even
more worthwhile, all of
the proceeds
went directly
to the
Children’s
Memorial
Hospital
Foundation
and its epilepsy center.
Lamborghini
Chicago, one
of the Fox Valley Motor Cars brands, opened it’s
new, 20,000 square foot facility, much to the delight
of Midwest Lamborghini owners and enthusiasts.
The facility itself was designed by architect Paul
Grimes of Michelson and Grimes, while Kelcan
Builders of Westmont made it a reality.
The facility is now complete with slate floors, tiles,
and textured finishes to really emphasize its luxury.
The new facility is a big addition for Fox Valley Motor Cars, who has had the Lamborghini brand since
1995. The facility comfortably fits over 40 cars
between the two floors of the showroom. In the
service area, there is also ample space – enough for
6-8 vehicles. Needless to say, there is plenty to see
when you visit Lamborghini Chicago.
The evening was kicked off with an upbeat, fun
cocktail reception with drinks and appetizers. Somerset’s Rotunda, an exclusive shopping center, was
filled with the music supplied by the Blackman &
Arnold Jazz Quartet. Lamborghini owners, enthusiasts, and other invited guests mingled among one
another while sipping on champagne and enjoying
the excitement of the evening. The evening proved

For the Grand Opening, seventeen Lamborghinis
were in attendance, including an Espada, LM002,
several Countachs, Diablos, Gallardos, Murcielagos,
and a very special Miura SV. As a special treat, too,
the Gallardo Superleggera was brought in from
testing in Arizona specifically for this event.

Martinis & Lamborghinis, a Children’s Benefit
A new fundraising, for-charity event sponsored by
Lamborghini Troy and other notable sponsors for
Variety, The Children’s Charity was held on April
28, 2007 in Troy, Michigan. With the glamorous
backdrop of The Somerset Collection, the event
featured several Lamborghinis to highlight the evening full of fun, food, music, dancing, and, of course,
martinis. A total of ten Lamborghinis were present
for the event, creating quite a sight in the heart of
Troy.
Inside this issue:
to be a start-of-the-season event for several Michigan Lamborghini owners – everyone was able to see
each other after the lull of the winter months in
Michigan.
Ron Springer, a fellow Lamborghini owner from
Michigan, brought his black Gallardo with a new
QuickSilver after-market exhaust system. Needless
to say, the car made quite an impression on eventgoers and was the cause for several lengthy discussions on Lamborghini performance numbers. Also
making an appearance was the orange Gallardo
Supperleggera, a European vehicle not licensed in
the United States. The stop in Troy was just one of
many stops it will make throughout the country this
season.
From there, the evening progressed with a silent
auction of several valuable pieces of art, raffle prizes,

SPRING 2007
I would like to extend a great big thank-you to everyone for the great start
to the year! Our first Brake-Fast club went perfectly and served as a perfect
lead-in to our Gallardo Road Show. We had 48 test drives throughout the
Gallardo Road Show – I hope you had the chance to get in one of them!
The Martinis & Lamborghinis Charity event had an excellent turnout and the
weather held out, with the exception of about 15 minutes of rain. Thank
you to everyone that participated!
If you missed the all new Superleggera when it was here for the Gallardo
Road Show, you should get a chance to see it again at our Lamborghini Troy
Track Day - it really is something to see! Among other fine details, the
carbon fiber work on the car is absolutely beautiful. Going beyond the cosmetics of this new Gallardo, Lamborghini was able to remove over 150
pounds! Based on the feedback from the Superleggera testing in Arizona,
the enhancements have really added driving character to the vehicle in addition to the various body modifications. If you have already had the opportunity to see it, then you’ll be happy to hear that we expect to have our first
Gallardo Superleggera at Lamborghini Troy by July!
New Event Update: Our second Brake-Fast club will be Saturday, June
30th – I hope to see you there! Also, don’t forget about the Track Day
event on Friday, July 20th at Gingerman Raceway. Last year we were fortunate enough to have Valentino Balboni, and, although it is too early to know
what Valentino’s schedule will be like in July, we have invited him to come
out again and join us at the track! This year’s event is expected to be even
better than last year’s event. For more information on upcoming events,
please feel free to e-mail or call me about this and other events going on
this year!
Also, looking ahead: For those of you who are interested in going to Italy
this November to spend two days under professional instruction driving
Lamborghinis, please get in touch with me! The Mach 3 event, which takes
place on the Santa Monica International race track, right by the Adriatic
coast is only about an hour away from the Lamborghini Factory in
Sant’Agata.
I look forward to seeing you all at the showroom or an event soon!

‘Superleggera’, which means super lightweight in Italian, really lives up to its name:
the Gallardo Superleggera is 100kg lighter than the base Gallardo, has a re-tuned
suspension, and is expected to cost 10% more (more details are due to come out
soon). Many of the attendees were excited to see the updated version of the Gallardo.
The evening started out with the ribbon-cutting ceremony by Bill Nuccio, Sr.
(owner of Lamborghini Chicago) and his business partner, Marc Iozzo; Thomas
Castronovo (managing director and director of marketing for The Private Bank);
Westmont Village Mayor William Rahn; and Stephan Winkelmann, president and
CEO of Lamborghini S.p.A – he flew in from Sant’Agata Bolognese, Italy to help
celebrate the event. Rene Sueltzner and Jonathon Kirshtein from Lamborghini
Technical Services also attended to show support for the Lamborghini brand and
Lamborghini Chicago’s new location. Chicago Chapter LCA Coordinators, Carla
Giordano and Dave Miller, along with Mike Wogronic from Lamborghini Chicago
were among many of the Lamborghini owners, enthusiasts, and other notables who
were also in attendance.
From there, the night proceeded with many of the guests enjoying Italian wines,
cheese tortellini, and decadent tomato, basil and fresh mozzarella skewers topped
with aged balsamic vinegar and seasoned olive oil from local Italian eateries.
Throughout the night, up-tempo DJ beats were buzzing in the air to add to the
excitement of the event. Also a part of the night’s events was a luxury fashion
show, showing off a number of elegant Italian clothes and jewels.
The big winner of the event was the Children’s Memorial Foundation, who
received a donation of $17,000 from the proceeds of the Grand Opening.
Through this event, Bill Nuccio Sr. was able to combine a few things he holds close
to his heart – a passion for fine motor cars and the ability to help make a
difference in children’s lives.
The event proved to be a night for the history books.

the evening, with catering by the Matt Prentice Restaurant Group.
A couple DJs were also on hand to keep crowds dancing and the
atmosphere light and fun.
Richard Bell and Matthew Vazana from Lamborghini Troy were present, along with several other notables from the groups sponsoring
the event. Lamborghini owners were given the opportunity to discuss any activities and upcoming events dedicated to Lamborghini

The event, organized by Tony Fayne of Capital Event Productions
and co-chaired by Bruce Migdal and Eric Clark, turned out to be a
very successful, fun-filled evening with an even better cause in mind:
Michigan children. All proceeds from the event went to Detroit’s
Variety Chapter, Tent 5, a charity organization dedicated to critical
medical and therapeutic services, recreational facilities and educational opportunities to southeast Michigan children with special
needs. All money raised by the Detroit Variety Chapter is dedicated
exclusively for charities in the metro Detroit area.

Gallardo Road Show - Lamborghini Ohio
As if the grand opening for the Lamborghini Ohio dealership didn’t
provide a big enough reason to talk about, the one-year anniversary
left even more people talking. To commemorate the event, Tom
Kruse, the Mayor of Marysville (where Lamborghini Ohio is based),
jump-started the day by officially declaring April 27th as “Lamborghini
Ohio Day” in Marysville – and it didn’t stop there. Throughout the
day, a number of events were scheduled for the attendees of the
celebration.
city of Delaware, which included a beautiful rural setting, south down
the local expressway – allowing the fine Italian models to gain some
speed and feel the open road. From there, the cruise proceeded to
Columbus near the campus of Ohio State University and finally made
its way through several downtown streets. Several onlookers were
on hand with camera phones and digital cameras to catch snapshots
and video of the rare sight of so many Italian exotics together in
Ohio.
The Lamborghini Ohio dealership, a member of the Nelson Auto
Group, features the largest Lamborghini showroom in the United
States. With 25,000 square feet dedicated to the sale and service of
Lamborghinis, there is more than enough room to make any Lamborghini owner or enthusiast feel like they were at home in Sant’Agata,
Italy.
The cruise took party attendees to BoMa (The Bar of Modern Art),
where the entire VIP parking lot was reserved for the large number
of Italian exotics. BoMa provided the perfect atmosphere for more
mingling among owners and enthusiasts with video screens broadcasting racing Lamborghini images, a live ‘painting’ of a Lamborghini
on stage, and Lamborghini Ohio’s “Lambo Girls” distributing promotional gifts throughout the evening.
The festivities were kicked off early with the Gallardo Road Show,
where Lamborghini clients were able to drive one of three new 2007
Lamborghini Gallardo Spyders or Coupes for one-half hour on the
streets of Marysville. The weather, although not the sunniest of days,
still allowed for good driving conditions during the event. From
there, attendees were invited back to the showroom for tours and
mingling among several other Lamborghini owners and enthusiasts.
Fine, complimentary refreshments were served throughout the day,
much to the delight of those who drove in from farther distances
(one Lamborghini Murcielago owner drove all the way from Texas to
join us for the event).
At 5:30 in the evening, 24 Lamborghinis and 15 Ferraris lined up outside of the dealership for a cruise into downtown Columbus. The
pre-planned route, complete with police escorts, went through the
10

SPRING 2007
The night at BoMa also included a very elegant setting with a creative,
art-driven evening meal. Guests were presented with a special menu
for the 5-course meal and treated exceptionally through each and
every course. Wrapping up the night, complimentary Italian wine and
champagne was available for guests to enjoy (the final tally of finished
bottles came to 49 bottles of wine and 39 bottles of champagne!).
Needless to say, the event was exceptionally planned and provided a
great opportunity for several Midwest Lambos owners (and one
owner from Texas!) to meet one another again.

Lamborghini at the Chicago Auto Show
The Chicago Auto Show, an annual event at McCormick Place convention complex, turned out to be quite an event again this year.
The Chicago show is the largest auto show in North America, featuring over 1,000 vehicles over the course of the 10-day show. The
show, since its inception in 1901, continues to be one of the most
well-attended auto shows in the world with over one million visitors yearly.
This year was no different from the statistics of years past; it proved
to be a very well-attended event from both visitors and auto manufacturers alike. Traditionally a venue to display several new production vehicles, the Chicago Show lived up to its reputation, in addition to showing off a number of concept cars previously unveiled in
North America.
Lamborghini Chicago, one of the only exotics to attend this year,
made a strong showing – they brought along a Gallardo Coupe,
Gallardo Spyder, and a Murcielago Roadster for visitors to see upclose. In fact, this was the first year that Lamborghini had dedicated
display space – in years past, Lamborghini models were grouped
together with a number of other exotics such as Lotus and Porsche.
Mike Wogronic, a representative from Lamborghini Chicago, was
present throughout the show to greet any visitors and provide additional information. A number of Lamborghini Club America mem-

bers also stopped by to meet and greet with other members and dealership representatives. Unfortunately, though, many of the exotic
manufacturers, including Ferrari and Lamborghini, have gained little
interest from visitors to the Chicago show, and may possibly end relations for future years.
Next year, the Chicago Show will hit its 100th anniversary – and plans
are under way for even larger festivities – we hope to see you there!

CLUB
AMERICA
Fellow Lamborghini Owner:
2007 is starting out to be another great year for Lamborghini owners! In addition to the
events that have kicked off this driving season, some individuals from our Lamborghini community have been referenced in a couple popular car magazines: Evans Auto, Milano Imports,
and Lamborghini Club America were noted in a featured Countach article in “Hemmings
Sport & Exotic Car”; Jim Kaminski of the Lamborghini Owners Club and his Italian Speed Festival in Florida made it into “Makes & Models Magazine”!
Next, I am proud to introduce Lamborghini enthusiast and club member Hovik Gevorgyan.
He has recently joined the club effort as an events coordinator for the New York / New Jersey / Connecticut area. Having organized several events in the tri-state area and already having a great reputation in the exotic community, Hovik is going to be an excellent addition for
the future of Lamborghini Club America and Midwest Lambos.
The main purpose of the LCA Midwest Region is to provide an additional resource for Midwest owners. In addition to bringing owners together through our website for Lamborghini
related interests, we also help to organize several Lamborghini events throughout the year.
Currently, this newsletter is mailed to well over 325 Lamborghini owners in the Midwest
region, and more than 400 owners outside of the Midwest. With your help and participation
in the club, we can continue to make this car club better than ever! I would like to personally
extend a thank-you to all members who have returned their LCA membership renewal forms
for 2007 – it is that support that will maintain the strength of the club and this newsletter. If
you have not already done so, please take a moment to complete the 2007 membership form
and update us with your current contact information (please note this information is kept
strictly confidential to Lamborghini Club America).
Lamborghini Club America would like to acknowledge the generous sponsorship of this newsletter: Lamborghini Troy, Lamborghini Ohio, MotorCars International, Evans Automotive,
Complete Hydraulic, LamboStuff, and Premier Financial Services. Without their support, we
would be unable to create this newsletter of such quality for the Lamborghini Community.
Please support these businesses, as they have helped to make Lamborghini ownership a better
experience.
Once again, thanks for reading this newsletter and I look forward to meeting you at an upcoming event!
