Awesome pictures Stephan - thank you very much for posting. The 288 GTO looks especially magnificent of course...as for the Lagonda, I haven't even seen a picture of one of those in so long! (oh yeah, the red Civic with the black door is sweet too )
As many of you know from previous posts, there is a GTG every Sat morning. It started last year with some Porsche guys from Rennlist. Then the Corvette Forum guys kicked in & they have become regulars. Old cars. New cars. Some of us DIY. Some of us dont. It doesnt matter. Just car talk & coffee. No parking lot burnout crap or similar juvenile stunts. Today we had 15+ cars. A nice assortment. The season has started! But Ferrari guys . . . where are you? Now, maybe youre busy taken little Johnny to soccer. Or some other family stuff EVERY frigging Saturday. That I can understand. But to date, we have had one Ferrari visit (Gerritt?) & one drive by. What gives? Ian
It was so damn cool! I was gawking over it, never seen anything quite like it. People kept walking up to it trying to figure out what it was. Definitely something different.
i might be able to come newbie here, with NO F car YET (looking at 308/328) was considering the one in London at Gardeilli Motors but i think it may be too "changed"? I have a line on a silver one with red interior, 82 308 in Colorado for 31k us, with records, probably a better deal I would be willing to sit in an F car from TO to Chatam and pay someone the gas there !! i am in Bracebridge so i would have to meet someone somewhere thoughts anyone?? looking for people to do a PPI on the London car and/or in other areas too, is there a list of people over North America reliable and willing to do so thx Gord 705-385-1203
Didnt Carbon_00 show up in his F430? I'd like to pass by one day since I am out that way often. Sounds like fun.
You're right. He did pop by one Sat. It was a light day however . . . which is the problem. Drop by - we're not a bad crowd & we'd like to admire some Italian iron too. Ian
How unreal is that !! WOW !!! Everything that is Red/Black I couldnt afford if I sold my soul. f40,f50,fxx,288gto,daytona spider........and on and on....wow !! I sure love the matching 575 and 430.....The pic showing them leaving is just beautiful. I love matching Fcars.....looks like you had a great time S.
Gord, welcome to Fchat. There are many on here that maybe able to help you with your prepurchase inspection. Just buy the best example you can find, take your time and enjoy the ride. Cheers.
Great pics Stephan! About the Lagonda, I don't know if it is the same car but I had seen a black one maybe 20 years ago on our streets. Maybe seen it only twice or thrice since then. Such a weird car!
Hi Ian I'll get there. We sold the house, now getting the condo ready to move into. So the F car has been on hold. But, I am presently out of work (as of Friday) so with the extra free time I just might be there next Saturday Just have to fix a few issues like a slow fuel leak from a lower transfer hose. For the non-P car crowd, this is a fun get together. And you learn things like 'the p cars have their idiosyncrasies as well'. We all do it for the same reasons, to enjoy ourselves. Gerrit
I would have gone today if I knew about it. I had my finger up my nose. Where is it? Give me specific details so I can go.
Great pictures.....! Great Venue and great colours.... Was that the 60th Anniversary party for Ferrari, or a Mr. Stroll open house??
Thanks for sharing your great pictures Stephan. I love the P4, one of the greatest bodies of all time. Mike.
The GTG in the GTA is currently being held every Saturday Morning ... between 10A - 12P'ish ... Located behind the Chapters across from Sherway Gardens (427 and QEW). Next Saturday, some of the P-Guys are heading up to Mosport for an advanded driver session (skip pad). April 21st ... the Corvette Guys are having their first Sherway meet of the spring ... cruise as well.
Like Mark said. Link to ongoing GTA GTB Thread on Rennlist for updates: http://forums.rennlist.com/rennforums/showthread.php?t=288619 Newman: I'd love to see your Boxer upclose. Mods: I will try to keep this thread updated. Might be worthy of a sticky???? Ian
Looking at the procession, I will make sure to ride way back. I don't want my car to sully up the view.
ok, I'm confused. Do you have two handles? Who's steve550? Looks like you have to bring 2 Fcars now. lol
LOL thanks Ric, Ill keep the car and her too. Ill pass on the van and keep cramming myself in the boxer.
I'm glad everyone enjoyed the pictures! The collection is just so incredible, these pictures do it no justice!
