My friends dad who is a good source (he has an insurance company drives a sl55 and a 355 and is going to get the bentley gt when it comes out) says that one of his friends has a F1 and lives in toronto. Has anyone ever seen one, i am trying to get a date set to meet this guy but i have not got in contact yet.

Yes, there is one Mclaren F1 in Toronto. It is owned by a 28/29 year old guy. About 5 years ago when he was 23/24, he sold his mapping directions ( mapquest) to someone and made in the neighbourhood of $300 million US.

Who has one in CT? I know ralph lauren has one, hes about 15 minutes north of me in NY. Tommy hilfiger or his business partner might have one, they are in NY as well. i have never seen one in person though.

I bet those rich celebs never even touch their F1s, let alone drive 'em like they were meant.

I heard somewhere that anything over 600HP is illegal on public roads in Canada, although I don't know if that's true at all.
There was an Enzo sighted on the street in Burlington (of all places) last month. In November!

well i have seen 2 Enzo's on the road, and a Tuned 600+hp GT2- this one i talked to, he said it was the only twin turbo with nitrouse porche in Canada, that i don't know about but he was a real cool guy, and he said we also had a 1994 M5 that he loves, and an Acura MDX of all cars

Ouch!! That's sad... Still funny though, with him as mr. Bean next to it.
He probably had it fixed though. At least he's a true car fanatic and drives the car the way (well, not entirely, I agree) it's supposed to be driven.

The owner of the Mont Tremblant racetrack owns an F1. I just can't remember his name off the top of my head...

i thought the F1 was illegal in CAN as well. prob somethin to do with our gay bumper regulations. i dunno. its got nothin to do with horsepower ratings. I am almost positive that the F1 is not legal(therefor uninsurable,unregisterable etc) BUT that doesnt mean he cant drive it on the track. its not illegal to own one here but i think it is illegal to drive it on public roads. I hope i am wrong,but i dont think so. proof is in the pudding! lets see those pics if u can get em Toronto! :D
