    Must be hard going though the break in period on that big bad bull! The summer will bring plenty of nicer weather so that you can unleash its real ability.

    Tom can show you some nice roads near POCO where you can test it out. He still has to lead me to those roads on my bike. We should do a summer meet and drive/ride!

    Definitely! But I'm guessing the big Lambo is more comfortable with the "faster" roads than the slower tight twisty stuff?

    I am so ready for some dry roads - still snow left over up here :(

    I normally wouldn't post about spotting a BMW since I don't consider any BMW to be an exotic but I've spotted a few M6 convertibles in the last 2 days...

    Having spent a few months driving an E60 M5, I can only imagine the engine and exhaust note of that car in a convertible form!!!

    One of the salesmen said they're gonna ship the SLR and 430 to another dealer (he didn't mention the name) in the next week. Be sure you see them before they leave!

    SLR is a rare spot in Canada.

    Im gonna try to go see them on Thursday...I will call ahead to make sure they are still there. I think that is the same SLR that was at the Mercedes dealership a few months ago in Surrey.

    It has black seats. Another black SLR I've seen has red seats which was sold through Mercedes North Van.

    BTW, they're asking $439K for SLR (only 4K on it), and $395K (!!!!) for the 430. It's full option though.

    so if GM has them, does that mean 0% financing and employee pricing on the SLR & 430 ? ;)

    Is Dueck selling exotics now?

    Thanks.

    Definately the SLR. Much more sleeker and stylish IMO. And the black one just looks like the devil's ride. But I gotta say that black 430 was very nice, too. I liked the red stitching and full black interior.

    There was one black CGT in Dundarave in a summer event. It has been spotted a couple times downtown, too.

    Hahaha. The salesman told me those are not their cars, they just got them for a sale promotion something like that.
