You got to love Mclarens. That gold heat shield is so nice looking. Who owns that one? Does it just sit up there all day or is it a member of the country club. I'd love to see one in person.

Manu,

I see you changed your profile :-) Although I am a Ferrari guy I have to admit I like the Murcielago. Saw it when newly released at IAA in Frankfurt nearly two years ago. Still a nice car especially in this "stealth lookalike" black.



Con saluti cordialissimi,

TAKO- That's the most stunningly beautiful snapshot of the Murcielago I've *ever* seen.

Best!

TAKO? Did you drive near or through Mission Hills (Fremont)? I think I may have spotted your black toy as well...

I was pushed behind by a yellow Murcielago on the last Sunday morning drive and had to give way to the monster.

Dr. Shelbee, was it a few weeks ago or about a month and a half ago you saw that yellow one?

What were you driving?

I agree 120% with all of you that the Mucielago is beautiful but more stunning in person. I once saw a beautiful green one coming at a lane opposite of mine. The sound and sight kept me stunned for a few minutes while I sat in traffic. I'm glad his lane was against traffic to have witnessed such a beaut.....

I am die-hard on Ferraris but got to admit the Murcielago is really gorgeous. I saw and got inside one at Paul Spruell Motorcars in Atlanta,GA.
Although I wasn't too impressed initially with the Enzo, I am withholding my judgment until I see
one in person. Pictures/Magazines do not do justice to some cars.

Eric,
I believe I have seen the one you are referring to. I saw a black one a few months black. From what I've heard (unconfirmed) but it belongs to the owner of the autobody repair shop called Cavalino's on 202. (Yes, it's actually called Cavalino's and they use a prancing horse as their logo.)

Speaking of seeing the murcielago there is someone near me that lives near west chester pike or Rt202 in Delaware county, PA that drives one. Does anyone know who this is or has also seen this car? It is one awsome car to hear go by. Car has been driven throughout the winter. Anyone else seen it.

I love the look of the murcielago now. At first I wasn't so sure about it. Just like the Enzo the more I se pics and films of it the more I want one. A roadster would look real good. I hope they produce one exactly like this

Menacing is a great adjective for the car. The Murcielago is as wide as a Hummer H2. Has an imposing presence that most pictures can't adequately capture. The 2003 Dodge Viper is another low and wide car that is a lot meaner looking in real life.

Ron, with the speeds attainable by the Enzo, you wouldn't need to check your blind spot, anyway, unless of course, someone else is on the same road as you, in a McLaren... :-)

The only problem I have with the ENZO is it doesn't have enough window view behind the door glass.. BIG blind spot..
Aside from that, it is a beautiful machine.

The Murcielago is a really nice car, very well balanced, but pretty tame compared to the Diablo- I'd much rather a SV or a VT 6.0 but thats my personal opinon...

It's a very cool car but theres no such thing as a Lambo with out a giant wing! :-)

I agree, Ross. I saw a yellow one in Miami, FL. Seeing the car in pictures does not do the car justice. They are just fantastic looking.
