Festivals of Speed Celebrates Exotic Cars
Almost a decade ago a small exotic car show in St. Petersburg, FL held its inaugural event, and nine years later the Festivals of Speed has ballooned into a celebration of go-fast goodies.
The main attraction is easily the supercars, and there was no shortage of rare, high-price hardware, including the Koenigsegg CCXR (above). Other highlights for the exotic car enthusiast include a Lamborghini Aventador, a Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder Performante, a Spyker, several McLaren MP4-12Cs, a Ferrari FF, a Porsche GT3 RS 4.0 and a long list of other Ferraris, Lamborghinis, Aston Martins and more.

With AutoGuide from its launch, Colum previously acted as Editor-in-Chief of Modified Luxury & Exotics magazine where he became a certifiable car snob driving supercars like the Koenigsegg CCX and racing down the autobahn in anything over 500 hp. He has won numerous automotive journalism awards including the Best Video Journalism Award in 2014 and 2015 from the Automotive Journalists Association of Canada (AJAC). Colum founded Geared Content Studios, VerticalScope's in-house branded content division and works to find ways to integrate brands organically into content.

Look at all those toys! I wish I had known about that show, as I don't live too terribly far from St. Pete. I used to date some one whose father would take us to car shows, though they were typically more focused on classic English cars. Still a delight, don't get me wrong, but I always hoped there'd be more modern cars like these. Simply gorgeous! http://www.carsmetics.com/California/LakeForest
