Do you have any pic's from Calafornia of (cars) ?
Thailand is a great country to visit! I was there a few years ago and travelled around to all the different areas. Bangkok really doesnt say much about Thailand. I strongly recommend either of the 3 main island off the East coast of Thailand. Koh Samui, Koh Tao and Koh Paong. Here are some of my pics from Thailand.... http://s102.photobucket.com/albums/m93/furious_fiero/South%20East%20Asia%202004/ Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Feb 10, 2007 07:51 AM Associated Press BANGKOK, Thailand Beluga caviar, truffles and Dom Perignon sorbet were on the menu Saturday for a night of fine dining in Bangkok that chefs, wine experts and organizers have dubbed the meal of a lifetime. Some of the world's wealthiest food lovers have flown in for the dinner, which carries a price tag of US$25,000 a head. Tax and gratuities are not included. Six three-star Michelin chefs from France, Italy and Germany will cook the meal's 10 courses, each paired with a rare fine wine. "It's surreal! The whole thing is surreal," said Alain Soliveres, the celebrated chef of Paris's Taillevent restaurant, who was commissioned to prepare two of his signature dishes including the first on the menu: a creme brulee of foie gras to be washed down with a 1990 Cristal champagne a bubbly that sells for more than US$500 a bottle but still stands out as one of the cheapest wines on the menu. "To have brought together all of these three-star Michelin chefs and to serve these wines for so many people is just an incredible feat," Soliveres said ahead of the dinner. Few expenses have been spared in putting together the event, titled "Epicurean Masters of the World." Chefs submitted their grocery lists to organizers and the ingredients were flown in fresh: black truffles, foie gras, oysters and live Brittany lobsters from France; caviar from Switzerland; Jerusalem artichokes and white truffles from Rome. Diners will sip their way through legendary vintages, like a 1985 Romanee Conti, a 1959 Chateau Mouton Rotshchild, a 1967 Chateau d'Yquem and a 1961 Chateau Palmer, considered "one of the greatest single wines of the 20th century," said Alun Griffiths of Berry Bros. & Rudd, the British wine merchants that procured and shipped about six bottles of each wine for the dinner. The wine alone cost more than $200,000, Griffiths said. "Just to have one of these would be a great treat," he said. "To have 10 of them in one evening is the sort of thing that people would kill for." The dinner will be served to 40 people 15 paying customers and 25 invited guests. Organizers scrambled to fill seats at the last minute after 10 Japanese people cancelled their reservation, citing safety concerns after the New Year's Eve bombings in Bangkok that killed three people, said Deepak Ohri, managing director of Bangkok's luxury Lebua hotel, which organized the dinner. Guests jetted in from Europe, the United States, the Middle East and across Asia and include executives of Fortune 500 companies, a casino owner from Macau and a Taiwanese hotel owner, Ohri said, declining to reveal their identities. To ensure discretion, diners will be escorted to a restaurant on the hotel's 65th floor in a private elevator and all staff holding mobile phones with cameras will have to check the devices at the door. The chefs preparing the meal charge diners about $260 for a meal at their own restaurants and said they were stunned by the price. "It's crazy," said Antoine Westermann of Le Buerhiesel in Strasbourg, France. "The fact that one meal could be this expensive," he shrugged. "After this, nothing can shock me." In a bid to give diners their money's worth, Westermann said he planned to shave 100 grams of Perigord truffles worth about $350 onto each plate. "For $25,000," he said, "what do you expect?"
Hey Scott, now we know why you are out that way http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/showpost.php?p=136452689&postcount=2475
I am having a hard time finding a supplier for 16" wheels for my 79 308 GTS in Ontario. I live between London & Windsor. The five spoke factory style is fine. Time to get rid of the TRX wheels. thanks

That's just insane! Cool Vid. Hey Mark, you gotta tell us where your biz is so we can come by for coffee. Do you have espresso?
They're testing the espresso machines in Winnipeg (they had them in Downtown T.O. a little while back) ... hopefully all will go well, and they will roll them out system wide next year. My store is in Mississauga (corner of Mavis and Central Parkway, south of the 403) stop by anytime! Feel free to call the store first ... 905-272-4545, and ask for me.
Just a handful of pics (first ones ever!) of my black/black E36 328i in winter mode. Nothing crazy exterior wise except HIDs headlights Pics were taken by a buddy of mine and then I did some post-processing http://img300.imageshack.us/img300/2849/11bix5.jpg http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/2742/14ed1.jpg http://img441.imageshack.us/img441/2505/22bfe8.jpg http://img406.imageshack.us/img406/3568/24bom2.jpg Tell me what you guys think! Personally, I totally dig the last pic.
It was at a friend's condo's underground parking garage. A section of the visitor floor was empty and proved to be ideal.
