    Looked like a 625TRC heading south on Rt 53 at about 2:45pm. It stopped to get gas at the corner of Rt. 59 and Boughton Rd. in Bolingbrook. Very nice!

    Most likely was. Just think about the implications if it was real!

    There are at least two cars like this in the area. Replica might not be the right term as they both use real Ferrari parts. Rebody or reconstruction might be a more fitting term.

    The car in the picture I took lives in the area you saw it in, so I figured it was that one. One of many cool toys the owner has.

    I see Bentley Continentals like Camrys in Lincoln Park. Spurs and GT's it's nuts. Everyone from kids younger than I (22 and under) to men who make my 92 year old grandpa look young all driving. I have seen 4 a day since moving here June 1.

    My roomate and I play a game after 5pm. We count how many $100K+ cars are parallel parked in our area.

    It's slightly ridiculous.

    Not to belittle the Bentley at all, but I see them going for under 100k now with leases slightly over $1k/mo. If one had a decent income and really wanted one..
