I especially liked the Alex Clarke, in-your-face, ugly American touch:

"Alberto (Masi) lit up and said he would like to buy it ('54 Masi). He was Faliero's (Masi) son after all. Mr B (Brambilla). replied, "Nah, I will sell it to this young American" (Alex Clarke). Imagine how that response must have stung! But what's right is right! I think it was something like: "Alberto, I knew Faliero...and you are no Faliero! Got that?"
