Default Trip to USA

well, i cam back a few weeks ago now, but i have been waiting for some pics from a friends camera, as i broke mine half way through the trip!

Anyway, i cant be arsed waiting longer, so here is what i caught with mine, and another friends camera. I will add the other other friends pics when he gets me them.

In total i saw 3 maybachs, only managed to get pics of 2 but this is my prize spot (very sorry for quality - it was dark, and our group was rushing to get to the subway station!)



yes, its a maybach 62! Rather amusingly, the guy actually scrapped half of the front spoiler off when he pulled onto the road and down the kerb! I imageing it was the chauffers first day on the job

Here is maybach 52 number 1 i saw(taken with friends cam, which has the wrong date on):







and one with little old me, just as proof.


the other maybach i saw was another 57, but it flew through central park before i could even get my camera out. Although i can tell you it had a woman in the back wearing a very very large red mink coat, for what thats worth!

This one i was especially pleased with, my first one:

beats the hell out of a maybach on looks dont you think!


Like i say, i am still waiting for some other pics from another friends cam, and although im not exactly sure what it has on it, i do know it had pics of the gorgeous Pinin Farina (they deleted the space in the name later on ) Cisitalia "202" GT. Here is a taster pic from the museam itself


Here are some other pics of not quite so amazing cars i saw.
A childs size ferrari testarossa with 15mph top speed and 2 gears! a sinch at only $20,000


This was at Heathrow airport - my first one in the flesh - luckily i had a bib with my so i didnt drool all over it!




again, i rear my ugly head

And finally, a proper American car - the first one i have seen as well.
