    I love Panteras! Always a pleasure to see. Especially the GT5's.

    There was a yellow GT5 (Not sure it was a real GT5) that stuck in my head YEARS ago. It was driving on St. Clair. Driving behind it and being able to see the bottom of the motor out back is simply crazy.

    Spotted this at Empress Walk. I thought it was a T-Rex but driver said it's a G2 which is pretty much the same. Pretty neat. He said it costs like $2000 to rent for the weekend at GTA Exotics.

    This is a little out of left field, but I was wondering if someone could recommend me the BEST lawyer possible in Toronto? This is regarding a case involving speeding, stunt driving, driving under the influence, and driving without a licence (and yes, the accused is a complete moron).

    Thanks in advance.

    Maybe Mr Greenspan or his bro? :)

    I don't think the best lawyer in Toronto would take on that case but who knows. There is a gentleman on here who really knows his stuff. You'll wanna search the canadian section for the thread. I can't remember which one it was. But was related to this kinda stuff.

    The last one I saw was years ago at a carshow. The butt end on these things look like they mean business. Funny coincidence that asb9987 just spotted one!

    You can never spot enough :)

    Last one I saw was at Cayuga Raceway. Nice car but needed some touch ups and nicer exhaust. Still awesome! :)

    Rosso Barchetta is a non-metallic color. The 599 in the picture looks to be a metallic color like Rosso Fiorano. Notice for comparison how flat the Rosso Corsa paint on the 430 beside it looks. Thanks for the picture. A very nice 599 there.

    Cameron, I know an Ottawa local guy was clocked at 178Kmh, got his car impounded and had a large fine plus a half dozen charges. He hired a COPS or POINTS guy and got the whole thing dropeed to a 'charity' cheque. I don't know the details, a friend of his is Rob at Robson Racing here in Ottawa.

    Was this picture at Eurofest?

    I saw the same car... there was also a yellow Pantera IIRC that ran the quarter mile in less than 11 seconds...

    Yup that was it. Yes, there was a yellow out in the back. I regret not walking over to see it. Please tell me you have pics?!

    Unfortunately I only saw the yellow Pantera go down the dragstrip. I don't think I ever saw it on "display".

    Overall I found Eurofest a bit disappointing. I expected more exotics. There were only a couple Ferraris and two Astons, IIRC.

    Too many ricey BMWs and VWs.

    Edit: I have two pictures buddy, they're coming up...`

    He was over in the 458 section recently; wondering how many of those cars Ferrari would build. Not enough obviously; judging by the number of customers turned away by dealers.

    I didn't mean the best lawyer in Toronto, I meant the best traffic lawyer. Surely someone on this forum has had a run-in with the law regarding speeding/stunt driving/DUI and has a lead on a good lawyer. In the mean time, I'm going to keep looking.

    Thanks!

    Morons are best represented by themselves in court. Keeps them from driving on our roads.

    Everyone makes mistakes. To say you've lived your life 100% according to the law up until now would be a complete lie, and this goes for 99.99% of the general population.

    Hi Cameron. Understood. But you did ask about a lawyer. Anyhow, what this guy did is very serious indeed. Sure we've all done our antics (God knows I have). BUT, Driving without a license?! Under the influence? You think this guy should drive again? I sure hope not atleast until he really learns his lesson.

    This is pure stupidity...
