Homestead Miami Speedway Ferrari Challenge

Ken Gorin The Collection Ferrari's at 2019 Ferrari Challenge
The Ferrari Challenge, held on September 6th through 8th of this past year, made for an exciting weekend in Miami for its big return to Homestead-Miami Speedway. Once each guest of the event arrived at The Collection, they received a polo shirt and a hat to showcase their love for Ferrari. Guests were also greeted by Ferrari representatives who gave them a rundown of the event’s schedule, starting with a delicious breakfast.

Once breakfast was over, colored smoke bombs filled the streets of Coral Gables, and over 70 Ferrari’s were led by a police caravan to the Homestead-Miami Speedway. It was quite a sight to see as hundreds of people looked upon the marvelous attraction. Once at the track, our Ferrari Challenge team met with the challengers at The Collection trailer.

Ferrari owners, family, friends, and spectators enjoyed driving their Ferrari’s on the track, while enjoying the hospitableness that the Ferrari brand is famous for. After the races took place, clients also had the opportunity to take a cruise around the track on their own during a specific time slot. The two-day event was a success with our own challenge driver Benjamin Hites taking home first place both days!

Saturday, September 14th was a day to remember for all car enthusiasts who came out to the September Rise & Drive event at The Collection. There were over 400 car enthusiasts there to enjoy all the surprises that were around every corner. The guests were in their element as they were surrounded by Porsches, Ferraris, Jeeps, Lamborghinis, and everything in between. Once the guests checked in, they were able to look around at all eight showrooms and they even got to take a private tour of the unique service shop.

Inside the Porsche showroom, guests were treated with a blast from the past. The 1960’s themed celebration in the showroom allowed everyone to marvel over the all the Porsches from throughout the years while listening to Elvis and The Beatles! The last stop was the latest 2020 Porsche 992, which took everyone’s breath away.

There were two exciting raffles at this event. The first raffle gave the guests a chance to win a signed Dwayne Wade Miami Heat Jersey and the other was to win an original sketch by Marz Ink. Needless to say, the guests were eager to hear who the winners were by the end of the event! Everyone there also enjoyed the made-to-order coffee, the Xbox Station, and Jeremiah’s Italian Ice.

On Saturday, July 13th the Ferrari test drive event held at Mr. C’s hotel in Coconut Grove was an event to remember. This event was possible due to the efforts of The Collection Ferrari with Ferrari of Miami in collaboration with Toys for Boys Magazine. As the guests arrived, they were greeted by the beautiful Ferrari Portofino display and later got the thrilling experience of going for a test drive surrounded by the amazing views of the Coconut Grove and Biscayne Bay skyline. The event then moved to the rooftop ballroom where the Toys for Boys Editor-in-Chief said a few words and toasted to a beautiful night. To top it all off, the guests got a take-home gift of a leather Ferrari champagne bag with a bottle of Veuve Cliquot Rose inside.

This vehicle is significantly lighter due to its innovative design. Combine this with the additional 40HP and you have a vehicle that gives you better performance with less emissions. The experience you get while behind the wheel may be the closest you get to flying. This powerful convertible has the capability of going from 0 to 124mph in 10.8 seconds.

Season of Giving at THE COLLECTION

This past holiday season, I had the privilege of giving back to a community that’s given me so much. To kick off the season of giving, as a company, we decided to spread some much-needed holiday cheer and adopt two families via CBS 4’s Neighbors4Neighbors Adopt-a-Family Program. A dress down day in December generated funds for items on the wish lists provided by each family. The children ranged in age from 2 to 17 years old. So we were thrilled to be able to get them all toys, clothes, shoes, a Publix Family Dinner box, plus extra gift cards for groceries and necessities for the parents.

In addition to the beautiful red Ferrari California T that was leading the pack of bikers, the new Jaguar XE, the Porsche Macan, the Audi Q5 and the Maserati Ghibli, were displayed during the event. Miami Heat’s Nba legend Dwyane Wade expressed his ideas about the event by saying: “It was about babies, teenagers, adults, no matter what size, what shape you are, what color you are, what race you are, what is your job, what you do, we are all part of the community”.
