    Where is the chrome handle?


    Every Silentflush has a chrome handle.


    I'm betting there is an American Standard logo on there somewhere.

    Ugh the horror! At least Ferrari has not gone down this route yet. The FF is still a sporty looking car.

    Ferrari will repurpose the maser/Alfa and shill at 15k less than a Kalifornia. A gle63 to go with the ultimate dentists SL.

    Yes, but that's a complete photoshop. The DBX will look nothing like that based on the model displayed at the auto shows.

    I am trying to get on the guest list at Monterey for various & sundry automakers. Tucker will let me in but...

    seriously, last year I somehow was able to go to the Bentley House, about a mile from the water, and had appetizers, a test drive in a Bentley Continental convertible and a tour of their custom ordering room (alas, didn't order one...) but the Rolls House was more spectacular, right on the water, more elaborate food and no attempt to show you their wares other than delivering me there in a Dawn.

    Does anybody remember how you get on the invite list? I am urging you if you own either of these two brands to contact your dealer and tell him you are going to Monterey and want to be on the list.

    Some of these marques, including Jaguar, might also have a hospitality suite at Pebble Beach which makes going to the concours so much easier in that the food is free

    As a manufacturer myself, sometimes you need to grab the low hanging fruit to continue to have funds for your passions.

    I manufacture many products that dont excite me personally because they help pay for the ones that I am excited about.

    Which market is driving the SUV craze now? Is it still the u.s. or China now as well?

    Porsche still has factory racing programs because of the Cayenne.

    btw I thoroughly expect Ferrari to build an SUV in the next five years. Lamborghini is coming out with one soon, and it's the path of least resistance to keeping shareholders happy.

    SUV's are responding to people getting fatter and wanting to haul more junk around than ever before. Just wait until the Chinese start getting fat, then we'll really start running out of space on this diminutive planet :D

    All we actually need is a DB5, an elegant companion, and a briefcase.
