    I saw a 355/348 with 360 wheels, one of the Shemmers I believe it is. He was in Bolton enjoying the construction going on highway

    EDIT : Forgot to mention I saw my 3rd Challenger but this one was in Bolton, the car looks so nice.

    don't know about his house but i'm pretty sure the guy Ilio is talking about is his boss or old boss and as far as I know he keeps his car at his office.

    Saw a sweet rosso F355 spider going west on Rutherford uphill just after HWY 27 and an R8 a few car lengths behind it. My 2nd 355 spot in 2 days, not bad! My oh my, that car is an absolute classic. A decade later and it still looks stunning.

    I toggled my xenons at both of them, hopefully neither got hit by that radar trap after the crest on that hill. I was saved by a 993 going the opposite direction; if you're on this board - thanks!

    Yes I saw that car last week. It's a bit over the top and not for everyone. But the engine hp you talk about sounds interesting :D

    Yes, I love those BBS wheels! Anu, your car looks great. I love the old BMers. They are tanks.

    On another note, I just bought an old school Golf GTi this week and I think i'm gonna keep it for a bit as a driver. Great on gas too especially for the driving i've been doing lately. What a blast to drive LOL :D Man I feel like im in high school again! :D:D

    Well it wasnt a good start West. I was just in Yorkville and I spotted that yellow Diablo fake yet again. And the chick I was with couldnt understand why I was so frustrated! :D

    That guy needs to get a real car and I gotta get a smarter broad!
