Exotic Cars at Caesar's Palace

My buddies Richard Wiesman and Ken Gold just opened a place called Exotic Cars at Caesar's Palace...definitley worth Checking out if in Vegas. It is right in the Forum where the statues of the Roman Gods come to life..very cool. I may be putting one of my 935's there for display..they will have other IMSA type cars there on display as well

Been there. A nice selection of a variety of cars and motorcycles. However, as I understand it- they have been unable to obtain a dealership license. So none of these vehicles can be sold. Seems like a large/expensive location- that does not generate a lot of revenue?

I beleive most of them are for sale. I know for sure the Indy car is, at least according to one of the salesman (some where in the 600's I beleive)

I'm guessing that this used to be the FAO Schwartz store.

No the FAO Schwartz store is still there. Maybe it moved units? Both are there though. There seemed like there was a lot of action going on in the "office" so it surprises me that they would not have a liscence. There is nothing there that you can't see anywhere else, except maybe the indy car, but it is nice collection to go view none the less.


Cheers

The Indy car was at the Huntington Beach, CA Concours this last summer. Great car, love to see it run again someday.

Their exotic car collection seems to be incomplete - it's missing an SC!

they got thier license last week..as a matter of fact the black GT2 Club Sport in the picture left a few days ago so I would think your picture has to be at least three days old...used to be the IMAX Theater......great guys there and I hope they do well

Hey Van:

Is Ken going to continue to run Gold Rush Motorsports out of Mooresville?

FYI - here's Tatro's old car that I bought from Ken:


Thanks,

Brian

Actually Caesar's has nothing to do with it other than the fact it is in their hotel...the owner is a guy who was a dealer out of Florida. I have had business dealing with him before and he is a real good guy..a lot of less than honorable people in the car industry but Richard at Caesar's is not one of those...I hear you have to get buzzed into Wynn's place!

cover charge?

I was in Vegas for SEMA. We checked out the Wynn-Penske F-car dealership. They have a boutique with a pretty good inventory of merchandise.

We did NOT get to check out the cars. They have a $10.00 COVER to get in. If you are a F-car owner, no charge.

HOPEFULLY, the money goes to charity
