    +1. I don't even live in Mississausage and the construction is insane. Ditto for the 401/409

    I saw a Maybach coupe this morning going NB on Leslie around the 407 this morning. I don't see a coupe on the Maybach website and didn't know they made one. Anyone know anything about that car? To state the obvious, it looked pretty nice.

    Yep, I'm pretty sure that's it. I wouldn't have any idea what it was if it weren't for the logo which is unmistakable.

    I don't think this car is available to the public? Isn't it only a show car?

    I wonder if the home owner actually bought this car. IIRC it costs $8 million according to this article!

    Standard old body style Green C230 supercharged - they lowered it, put some big tires on it more for a joke, but the thing apparently did very well.

    Ha! - I answered before turning pages - that's hilarious - Steve said he had a blast in that thing - more fun than his 993 twin turbo or the challenge cars

    I'm with you on that one! - I guess it ends up on the grass faster than the benz.

    No it's not available to the public, I can't remember which but it was either the Mclaren SLR or MAYBACH Canadian debut and the car was brought in for the party at that guy's house.

    A couple of nice spots downtown yesterday:
    Grigio Silverstone 575 Superamerica
    Grigio Silverstone 599 GTB Fiorano

    Today's spots include:
    2x 328 GTS (Both were Rosso.)
    355 Spider (Dark red. I'm not sure what the colour's called.)
    360 Modenas/Spiders (Rosso, Giallo, Argento, Blue, etc.)
    Rosso Challenge Stradale (I love this car.)
    F430s/430 Spiders (Rosso, Nero and Argento.)
    2x F430 Scuderia (One of which was Rosso w/ Gold wheels, stripes and front splitter!)
    2x 16M Scuderia Spider (Rosso and Giallo.)
    550/575 (Rosso, Giallo, Nero and TdF Blue. The Giallo and TdF Blue cars looked amazing!)
    Rosso 575 Superamerica
    3x 599 GTB (1 Rosso Monza, 2 Nero.)
    2x Testarossa (Rosso and Giallo, both with F512M wheels.)
    3x 512TR (1 Rosso, 2 Giallo.)
    Rosso 512 Boxer
    4x California (2 Nero, 1 dark red and 1 TdF Blue.)
    Gran Sport MC Victory
    Gran Turismo S (3-4 or so.)
    Arancio Gallardo Superleggera
    Silver Phantom
    Blue R8 V10

    By the way, is the Ferrari of Ont. charity rally considered cheating?

    Yeserday morning a few spots around 10:30 on Bayfield Street a classic Rolls Royce filling up at the Shell, the driver had the bonnet all opened up looked pretty fancy schmancy. Then at the lights a red 360 Spider top up sounded awesome.
