I had a nice talk with this one British salesman about the F50 and F1. He said he loves them both but if he could have any car there it would be the F50. He said it just felt more fun when driving. Must be the wind in the hair i told him ;) He also told me the McLaren was the only yellow one in the world.

Great bunch of cars, man!!! :o

The DB9 looks really good in that color, but the Vanquish is a bit weird. Maybe because I'd never seen one in a color like that....

That Gallardo is maybe the worst looking one I've ever seen :twisted: I think that color is horrible in every car :|

ARMAN 03-08-2006 08:45 PM

Is that McLaren for sale? Nice sights, thanc for posting :wink:

MidEngine4Life 03-08-2006 08:52 PM

Yea its for sale, after the red one was sold in like 1 day the guy i was talking to was suprised that it hadnt been sold yet.

TT 03-08-2006 08:53 PM

Such a nice dealer! The blue Vanquish is great! Too bad the S has quite a boring color though! I'd rather have the opposite ;)

The lime green Gallardo is always sexy to see! And nice white Elise, but those weird US spec turning lights installed on the wheel arches are a pain in the ass

The one I picked for the next contest:

You don't go easy on the "save as" :D from 600 to almost 900 for a 1024 picture is a bit of a pain.. actually only because imageshack is pretty slow here lately :(

BTW, pictures taken on the road in the US, always make me dream, :D

MidEngine4Life 03-08-2006 09:07 PM

That was my choice TT ;) Can you use this this touched up version please?

Oh and hey you can see my car in the back of that shiny solstice he he.

great pics! I'm leaving for Saratoga on Friday so I'm looking forward to seeing the F1 :)!

MidEngine4Life 03-09-2006 12:13 AM

Indeed its a sight to behold. When they got their first one, the red one, i damn near crashed staring at it as i drove by.

TNT 03-09-2006 12:15 AM

nice pics to bad they don't have any nice dealers like that near pittsburgh :|

lorbmw69 03-09-2006 01:40 AM

Is there an F1 in Saratoga?

MidEngine4Life 03-09-2006 01:49 AM

No, Los Gatos but thats a 3 minute drive from Saratoga lol

Pehtren 03-09-2006 04:54 PM

Nice weather and for sure a great place to spot such great machinery 8)

The DB9 looks very cool, so does the CS :P :P

Nice shot man

http://img391.imageshack.us/img391/3605/line26hm.th.jpg

thanks for the pics :P

Ford Capri 2.8i 03-09-2006 05:31 PM

Although almost every car looks awesome such as the white Elise (actually this is the first elise that I see white), the blue vanquish, or the 360CS, IMO the best looking car is the black diablo (apart from the red its my favourite car); nonetheless I prefer if the car was the rear wheel drive one

MidEngine4Life 03-09-2006 09:13 PM

Id also like to say sorry there arent more pics here. Im using the same old mermory card from my old 3.2 megapixel camera. what you see here is as much as it can hold at this quality lol.
