It was announced last night at the awards banquet of FFO 2015:

FFO 2016 will be in Detroit. It will very likely happen to co-incide with the availability of the new generation Spider in showrooms.

Cheers,

Really? We'll be down for the balloon fest this year. If you have more info, I'd seriously consider trailering the 72 down for some fun in the sun!

And an expensive ferry ride to boot.
I'm a bit closer (perhaps 120 miles) but until the Canadian dollar gets closer to the US dollar, purchases and travel in the States is a non starter. Right now I'd have to pay an additional 25-27%, not going to happen.
Bit of a bummer as I have a long wish list for Allison's and AR...
