    A certain Mr Sergio Pininfarina was the person who styled the Camargue for RR. There were less than 600 built during the more than 10 years of production. During the final roll-out of the Camargue they did a special edition. The last 12 cars all built for the US market were each painted white with a red leather interior.

    And a very cool car! Super rare and I know where there is one hiding. Never saw it...but I know it's there.

    I can only imagine the work it needs from sitting :(

    Electrics were not the best when the Camargue was new. 30+ year old English electrics is a scary thought! The early cars looked better with a steel body color roof. Some of the later build was saddled with a vinyl top in a contrasting color.

    Unfortunately, my first name is the same as a certain British Automotive Electronic Company.

    I was always teased for my reliability also!

    Three Panameras driving together on the 401 Westbound in Mississauga, tearing up the pavement around midnight last night...

    A black Panamera Turbo, a white Panamera S, and a navy blue (may have been green, not sure because of the night) Panamera S.

    All had full registered plates BHHR __, the numbers being in consecutive order. All had Pfaff dealer stickers and no front plate.

    I tried to keep up, but despite me holding a steady 135-140, I couldn't stay with them.

    Recent notable sightings:
    Nero 360 Modena (Offhand, I'm pretty sure it's only the second one I've seen in that colour.)

    Arancio Gallardo Superleggera & Orange/Black Viper ACR (They were driving together and getting plenty of attention!)

    Black DBS

    SLR 722 (It's impossible to get tired of this beast!)

    The R8 invasion (White, silver, dark grey, black, red, etc. In some cases, there were even multiple cars in the same colour! They were everywhere!)

    I've driven by the Oakville "dealership" and it's not much of anything. Mind you, this was 2 or 3 years ago, has it changed?

    Ah yes... the infamous LP560 "LVNMYUTH". Did you like it in person?

    It's a cool car, for sure, but nothing out-of-this-world, in my opinion. I really like the new rear-end and quad-exhaust, but the stubbier headlights... not so much. I also prefer the more aggressive, LP640-ish front bumper. It sounds great, but I think I still prefer the Gallardo Superleggera's engine note.

    The Bianco LP560-4 coupe sitting outside the dealership does alot more for me, though.

    I must be out of the loop. But where is this Oakville Porsche dealership you speak of? And is there one in Brampton? :D No seriously though? Oakville?

    EDIT: Wow there is one "1-2416 Wyecroft Road". Anuk, it's with great pleasure to finally hear you say something right :D;)

    I know for a fact Pfaff owned it. Not sure what is happening as while working I heard many rumors about the Oakville dealership.
