Last Friday I went to see a friend who works for Lauzon Audi dealership in Laval (QC). He was busy with a customer, thus I decided to await him at Lauzon Porsche dealership just at side his Audi dealer. You can see that I didn't waste my time while waiting. :wink:

How many CGT will be build ? There are so many sightings of that car ... i bet more than 2000 of them will be on the road .

[ae86_16v]

The CGT is such a sexy car. . .

[vakpemil]

Nice cars :D The silver Porsche is better colour on the car I think :)

[nurbrun]

awsome shots man. the CGT is like god him self is trapped in that exaust! sounds amazing. also that B6 S4 is SEXY :shock:

[stmoritzer]

CGT pictures are always welcome :D :D

The pics are a little "grey", probabely you didn't postprocess the pictures. Let me take one of yours and show the effect of adding more "CONTRAST" to the pic.

finally, I choose "color-correction" in XP's M..OfficePictureManager (where you can tell, which area in the picture is supossed to be white)
I guess the walls and the floor of this dealership are white...

Anyway, thanks a lot for the CGT pictures!

1500 were planned to be built, some say they are almost sold, other say the will stop the production soon at about 1250 cars.... you've to ask the expert st-anger about the real number of cars.

[JoeHahn]

Only 1250 will be built because of USA Airbag laws changing. Great photos you've taken there. Does that S4 have an S-line bodykit? I like the standard S4 more. Great photography!

[dingo]

You've now seen 2 more CGT's then me :( .....thanks for the pics! :D

[cooperluke]

A CGT is always worth new pics, even when you've seen hundreds of them!

Thanks a lot

[Carrera_GTcrazy]

HOLY SH!%T!!!! A BLACK CARRERA GT AT LAUZON! Im going tonight. Thank you so much for telling me its there! :D Expect more pictures of this beauty, because im assuming the GT Silver CGT is gone already...

[adamwich]

Very nice sightings! Thanks for the pictures.

[Astonfan]

very nice, i think i like the black better

[possessed_beaver]

*counts carrera GT's in sig's*

[Wutputt]

Gimme the black one :)

Thanks for the pics. Btw, is it allowed to remove those ugly orange side reflectors on the cars. imo, they ruin a bit the looks of most gorgeous cars.

[|Nuno|]

Thanks for the pics! I love black Carrera GT's. :love:






But couldn't they sell 250 models in other parts of the world? :?

Sadly, Porsche overestimated the number of cars they could sell... There are a lot of Carrera GT's selling under sticker price on the States.

[Schwalbe]

Thanks JW fellows for your nice comments ! :D

Hard decision... but I'd go for the black CGT!

Me also I would definitively take a CGT in black, because it's absolutely astonishing in this color. :D

the CGT is like god him self is trapped in that exaust! sounds amazing.

Your words are true poetry, I like the way you describe the CGT. :wink:

The pics are a little "grey", probabely you didn't postprocess the pictures. Let me take one of yours and show the effect of adding more "CONTRAST" to the pic.

You are right I should have made a little bit more effort to edit these pictures. Usually I use only the pix correction functions from Photoshop only for my personal wallpapers. Sorry guys…Now I edited those black CGT pictures.

Does that S4 have an S-line bodykit? I like the standard S4 more.

This is not the S-line bodykit, in fact this body kit coming from REIGER tuning. For my part, I prefer stock B6 S4 with only the Oettinger front bumper. :)

Like this one, but with a black mesh grill. http://img184.imageshack.us/img184/2136/audi46nk.th.jpg (http://img184.imageshack.us/my.php?image=audi46nk.jpg)

You've now seen 2 more CGT's then me :(

This is very sad that you didn't see yet some CGT's, because you are an excellent photographer you could take excellent pix of this supercar ! Sorry to say that to you, but my CGT count down is now 6 (3 in Montréal, 1 at Detroit Motorshow, 2 in Pompano beach FL) 8)

HOLY SH!%T!!!! A BLACK CARRERA GT AT LAUZON! Im going tonight. Thank you so much for telling me its there! :D Expect more pictures of this beauty, because im assuming the GT Silver CGT is gone already...

I believe that you will have some good chance to see the silver CGT, because this car is belongs to Lauzon dealer (X plate), it was previously in the showroom in April. Good hunting “Carrera_GTcrazy” !!! http://www.rs6.com/smilies/race.gif

Is it allowed to remove those ugly orange side reflectors on the cars. imo, they ruin a bit the looks of most gorgeous cars.

Me too I definitively prefer those from the Euro model. :wink:

[F1racer]

Didn't see the silver CGT...
That silver CGT you saw that was in the showroom forever, could that have been Mr.Lauzon's CGT? (the guy said Lauzon has one) Or does it belong to Conrad (sp)?

This is out of EVO mag

Meanwhile, orders have slowed considerably for the flagship V10 Carrera GT. So far 1100 of the proposed 1500 units have been built, but this final production tally could be reduced to around 1250 if orders don't pick up soon. With two to three cars being built a day at the Leipzig plant, this could mean production of the Porsche's supercar finishing in just two months' time.

That was a lot to type, but anyways great pictures, and the sound is the closest i think you can get to a F1 car, i LOVE IT!!!

Welcome to JW F1racer, thanks for your pix ! :D

You must surely live in Montréal metropolitan area... That's cool ! I think we are only 5 at JW to coming from Montréal. About the silver CGT I saw it all the winter in the showroom, there was also a yellow GT3. It's possible this silver CGT belongs to Mr. Lauzon, because when you own three dealership (Audi/VW/Porsche), you have necessarily the $$$ to drive or buy one. 8)

[stmoritzer]

More pictures of the astonishing black CGT :D

Thanks F1racer and Welcome to JW!

You're right about the silver CGT. I went to see it 3 times during all winter.
I already know Carrera_GTCrazy and Zorro.
By the way, I forgot to say your pictures are great. Better than mine!
