    I remember seeing that LP640 last year! Exaclty the way I'd get my LP. Orange Exterior, Roadster Wheels, and 6 Speed.
    Photos don't do the car justice.

    Today a Porsche 911 GT3 RS on Major Mack/Jane

    Yeah, it's been sitting in the showroom for a while now. Last time I visited, someone walked in and seemed interested in the car, but I guess they changed their mind. Anyway, I'm not the biggest fan of LP640s, but if I had to choose one, I'd have to go with a Monterey Blue coupe. As for transmission choice, I'm not sure 6-speed is even an option any more. Isn't it E-gear or nothing?

    On a related note, I also spotted an orange LP640 Roadster downtown last night. It was parked a few cars behind a Rosso Challenge Stradale (which I got a good look at all-around and just may be my new favorite Ferrari!), two Porsches, a Quattroporte, an Arnage and an Aston Martin. The usual suspects (2x 430 Spider, 2x Audi R8, a CLK 63 AMG Black Series and a gorgeous bright red V8 Vantage Roadster) were out, as well.

    What colour was the GT3 RS?

    Nope, you can still get a 6 speed while E-Gear is an option.
    The GT3 RS was Orange with the usual black stripes,spoiler.

    Black Ferrari 575 @ Dufferin/Finch (beautiful car)
    Black Mercedes SL63 AMG @ Yonge/Sheppard
    Black Bentley GT Speed @ Finch/Bathurst
    Black Bentley GT Speed @ Dundas/427 (Licence Plate was GT SPEED)

    Would have been 3 GT Speeds in a day if the one that I see almost everyday at Alness/Finch was there.

    Oh and keep bringing up the pictures. It really livens up the thread!

    Spotted on Overlea and Thorncliffe Park Dr a giallo fly 308 GT4 around noon . Didn't sound too healthy - carbs, plugs or give it the old Italian tuneup please.

    Thanks! I'm guessing the extensions are just bumper guards.

    When I read your post the other day, for some reason I thought you were referring to the Grigio LP640 Roadster in the showroom, which is what I was talking about in my reply above. Sorry for any confusion. Anyway, the orange coupe parked outside was impressive, but again, I'd much rather have one in Monterey Blue or possibly white.

    From the nice pictures the white SL63 looks more like the hotrod CLK (no front plate - was it American?). More Stradale....please!

    The white Mercedes is indeed a CLK Black, and yes it is from the US. I believe it's the only Black in the GTA, or at least the only one spotted.

    The white Mercedes pictured is a CLK 63 AMG Black Series, as pointed out in the post above. However, there was also a white SL 63 AMG parked a few cars ahead of it on the same street. The CLK 63 AMG is from the USA and therefore does not require a front plate.

    Unfortunately, I wasn't able to get any pictures of the Challenge Stradale yesterday. I didn't even know it was nearby until I saw it pull out of the Hyatt and rocket off down the street, putting on a show for the entire neighbourhood in the process :)cool:). Maybe next time!

    White Testa pulled up beside my new Pininfarina Volvo today at Yonge near Rosedale Valley Rd - anybody on here?
    Also spotted a red 360 Spyder on Steeles as I was coming back from the Alfa Tech Session at Pinarello Motori.

    Are those Merc wheels ? - they look like OZ Racing Superturismo GTs.
