    Nice to meet you here. It is no problem to post my car pictures.
    You still have your diablo?

    Nice meeting you too, hope we can chat someday at Wong's place.

    No la, I don't own it anymore. I am more a Ferrari fans. The Diablo is no doubt a fast car on straight roads. Yours is an SV which should pull much harder with less weight.

    Do you happen to have any more pictures?

    Love the color contrast between the body and spoiler.

    I have always wanted to meet the Koenig TR owner. I regret I didn't purchase the blue Koenig body 512bb when it was for sale at IMSS 4 years ago. Let me know when you head to Wong's place next time, I will go there to meet with you.

    I saw your VT a few weeks ago driving down Lockhart Road. What a stunner! Not many cars have quite the road presence of el Diablo. There are quite a number of Diablos in our little city does anyone have an idea of how many?

    Is anyone willing to give me the location of the garage where all those great cars are parked? That 911 Turbo looks fantastic!

    Saw a black/gold 430 Scud on Lockhart last night with a red 360 right next to it, followed shortly after by a 612 Scaglietti HGT-S I don't think there's a car with a better sounding engine produced right now (even at idle) though the AMG C63 runs it close.

    Some terribly bad quality photos from recent weeks:

    Jag XK120, Audi RS2, Gemballa Turbo, R8 LM

    I've never seen a 400i in person, interesting to see on in HK.

    Yes, I have rarely seen them in England and never here. Actually I really like it in that brown and the angle of the photo makes it look like a really nice car.

    Early doors then! Is there any way to find out when there are going to be a lot of cars there in advance? It seems it would be a lot of wasted effort to get out there on public transport only to find the place empty!

    Thanks Sega355, I will head there next week as I need a service for my MB, I should let you know prior.

    For the blue 512BB wide body, I miss that car too. If not mistaken, you should have seen that car back in 2002 when Italian Motors still got their showroom at the Kai Tak Airport. I saw it there in 2002, asking for just 495,000. Fully restored interior, no difference from brand new, motor runs ok and its one of a kind 512BB that you might not found any where else.

    Initially, I thought it was a Koenig, but in fact, the body kit comes from a company called Zender which is already closed.

    A pic for you.

    That Boxer is a beast. I never heard of Zender doing a body conversion for it. Was it done at the Zender workshop? As there are some major body mods there. Would go nice with this blue Koenig TR convertible...

    I found another couple of pics of teh Zender BBi you posted. For an aftermarket bodykit on a car that is almost proportionally perfect to begin with, I think it's a bloody good effort. Nice find!

    I went to the 13:30 show today and fair bits of empty seats.

    On a side note, overheard someone mentioned about massive SMD tomorrow with POSSIBLY Jeremy Clarkson joining, anyone know more/going?

    No problem mate!

    Really?! That would be thoroughly awesome! I wonder if they'd be doing a bit of filming too? SMD is the gig at Luk Keng right? Sorry for my ignorance I've never been to one.
