RITZ-CARLTON ORLANDO FESTIVALS OF SPEED, December 2nd, 2018
Ever since I first attended the Ritz-Carlton Orlando Festivals of Speed a little more than a decade ago, I wanted to show a car at this prestigious event located in a picturesque setting on the hotel's grounds. Yesterday, I was able to achieve that. Here are a few selected pictures:

Placed on the field. I was fortunate to get a favorable placement as a lead car in the American Sports Car Section:

There were a lot of unique vehicles and a great variety as well, including not one but 2 Bugattis:
Bugatti Chiron #1, (with an eye watering MSRP of $2.6 million):

Bugatti Chiron #2, All the way from Ontario, Canada. The tag read “FUNDSRLO" (funds are low) :)

I understand oil changes on these cars cost $21,000.
A more "pedestrian" Lamborghini Aventador SV:

If a sedan is more your style, there was this Rolls Royce Wraith Coupe with suicide doors:

Or this beautiful convertible ( Rolls Royce Dawn)

A Rhino GX luxury SUV:

Or a pretty blue monster truck. I’m not normally a fan of trucks, but something about this one caught my attention:
