The British Columbia Thread!

this 550 was sold by London Motor Cars a month ago, really rare combo!!!! i saw in the show room. it has full carbon fiber interior, with tubi, carbon race seats and like 5k . . . he just put some novitec rosso wheels on it!!! NICE!!!

checkout www.londonmotorcars.com look under sold and u can see it.

 

That makes me sad!!! I actually said in the original post "nice 550 with race seats, CF trim, quilted leather shelf, tubi (i think), suspension, and novitech wheels (i think)... then decided i was probably wrong on all accounts and edited it!! HAHA
Here is another picture I snagged:

 

ya lol, i love this car!!! it is pretty rare, if u want to see rare low milliage car u should check out London Motorcars website all the time (i think they have a couple of F430s up there right now)

I will try to set a date pretty soon. Are Sundays okay with the rest of you?
The autumn leaves now would make a drive just delicious! But I imagine any Sunday afternoon with decent weather would clog up the roads to Whistler, eh?

Any other ideas for the event itself? I doubt we would get a LOT of people, maybe 10 cars. But that is enough for a lovely photoshoot and cruise.

When I do get a date, I will note it's subject to change based on weather. Does that make sense? Not sure if anybody will want to meet (myself included) in showers.

The Azzuro Cali I saw the other day? The one on SW Marine Drive by UBC was a spider, and I also saw an Azzuro 360 Spider on the Burrard Bridge about 2 weeks ago.

 

Yeah, they have a nice F430 spider and coupe in the showroom now. Drive by almost everyday.
Im actually looking for a part time job right now to compliment my studies at UBC, but I don't think they'd be interested in a 19 year old roaming their showroom. HAHA!

 

Make it a rain or shine event! Tom drives the 348 all year round


How about the first Sunday in November? (Nov. 5th) I know its not set...but work is asking for requests right now. Im gonna request that day off in hopes you make it that day...otherwise it will be a day off for myself

 

Maybe they need a delivery driver

 

Anyone here snowboard or ski?

 

Ohhh how I love your thinking!!!

 

hehehe, how about the sunday after that? To give everyone on all forums a little more advance notice? If somehow you already requested, we can work with the 5th. Otherwise lets do the 12th.

 

blue f355 spider on dunbar this afternoon

 

how many CS s are in town right now? i keep on seeing the same one going around.

 

Today saw

red Porsche 550A Spyder on Burrard O_O definitely a replica, but very nice nonetheless
Orang and BRG Elises on Burrard Bridge
Silver Z8 on Georgia

Interesting rims on both cars. Thanks for sharing, and post more if you have.

 

I sent in the request...but I could send in a correction. 12th sounds good!

 

3, 2 red 1 silver

 

AM Vanquish on Broadway @ 11:30.
If you're on this thread, I'm the kid who said "lovely car!". And thanks for the show!!
(Wheel spin on the U-turn and generous gas through the gears as he drove away.)

No more pictures of the 550, and my only other picture of the G doesn't show the wheels.

 

Okay, cool. Lets work on the 12th!

When: Sunday November 12th, 2006
Time: 1:00 PM
Where: Good Q?
What: Better Q? (photos, lunch, cruise)

 

What colour Vanquish? haven't seen one yet.

 

The dark greyish green. Sounds vague, but the typical Vanquish color.
I've only seen one, this one, but I've seen it twice. He was a nice guy. Granted didn't we talk a lot, but he sounded enthusiastic.

 

Silver Ferrrari 360 spider,Silver bmw M5 in Coquitlam

 

so is it just gonna be us?...where is all the exotics guys?

 

Same Green-ish Aston Martin Vanquish on Arbutus
Silver Mclaren Mercedes SLR on Kind Edward west of Granville

 

DAMNIT. Wish I had seen the SLR.

 

sure - might even have the 348 back by then. Time for it's bi-yearly checkup and thinking I should have some rear-tread if it's the wet side of vancouver.

 

tjacoby - Hehe, looking forward to seeing the 348 and meeting you. Hope the car is back by then.

There will be a few guys from 6speed. Not much interest shown in ********** yet.

Still time to spread the word.
