Alfred J. DiMora, the CEO of DiMora Motorcar in Palm Springs, California, was an invited guest at Steven Plunkett&#s Fleetwood Country Cruize-In car show held recently in London, Ontario. About 10,000 people came to see over 2,200 automobiles on display at Plunkett&#s Fleetwood Farm estate. The day&#s events also included an air show featuring the classic aircraft of the Canadian Harvard Aerobatic Team.

This was just the fourth year for the annual event, but it set several records, including:
The largest single-day car show in Canada.
The largest Corvette meet in Canada.
The largest George Barris movie car showing in North America, hosted by the King of Kustomizers himself, George Barris.

Even the banquet that capped the day&#s activities broke records. It was held in the largest pole-type tent in Canada and provided a delicious sit-down meal to 2,100 guests, yet another record in southwestern Ontario. Legendary Canadian entertainer Bobby Curtola kept the place hopping late into the night.

All proceeds went to support nine charities, in particular Jesse&#s Journey, which funds research into Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. I was delighted to be able to help Steve Plunkett at this wonderful event for Jesse&#s Journey, Mr. DiMora said. It&#s also a great gathering of car enthusiasts like myself!

Mr. DiMora gained fame as the manufacturer of the Sceptre and Clenet series of luxury automobiles produced in California in the 1970s and 1980s. He is now creating the world&#s first $2 million production automobile, the Natalia SLS 2 sport luxury sedan.

Powered by the 1200-horsepower DiMora Volcano V16 engine, the Natalia will feature advanced technologies never before seen in a production automobile. While the first automobile won&#t be on the streets until 2008, the company has already received many orders.
