RIDGELAND, MS (WLBT) - They unloaded an 18 wheeler with four Ferraris in it, just for us Friday afternoon, to give you a preview of the Big 2009 Euro Fest Classic European Auto and Motorcycle Show at Renaissance Shopping Center in Ridgeland.

The show will include a Ferrari racing car, capable of 220 miles per hour with a 550 horsepower engine, which is a 3.4 litre v-12.

But the star of the show will be this $1.4 million dollar Ferrari Enzo, of which only 399 were made. The technician sent here with it, 44-year-old Wade Williams, is originally from Crystal Springs, Mississippi. He talked with us about typical Ferrari owners.

"Most of our customers are just businessmen. They have made their money in their business, and they want to enjoy something and they come and buy a Ferrari, a lot of our customers are not super wealthy people, we do have super wealthy people, but a lot of them are just businessmen, they still go to work like everybody else," said wade Williams an Atlanta Ferrari technician.

The big thing about the auto show is that it is free and will feature entertainment by the band, Vince Vance and The Valiants. This Ferrari is worth $1.4 million dollars and will be on display along with about 80 other classic cars at Renaissance in Ridgeland.
