I guess some of us would be involved in the sad news, not only Ferrari's enthusiast but also design lovers.
Dunno know if you heard there but due to a urban accident Andrea Pininfarina, 51 YO, president of Pininfarina SpA, son of Sergio, die August the 7. He was driving his Vespa when an aged man with a city car run down him, he die instantly.
The only time I see him in person was around the 2000 over the presentation of a car design exibition at Venice, I got the impression of a very nice person.
The president would be now the Andrea's bro, Paolo.
RIP Mr. Pininfarina
