The Ontario Thread!

Great pictures you found! It's interesting how they set up the back yard with only one small building on the very edge of the property. The rest is simply lawn down to the waterfront without a single tree in that line of sight.

I'm diggin' his whip in the second pic. Is that a Savanna or an Express? In the words of Paris Hilton, "Thats Hot"

Lucas, good call on the pics. That house is crazy!

 

There have been a few pictures of the collection shown here. I seem to recall a red Boxer among other interesting cars. The word garage doesn't really do justice to the room where the collection sits...

The mayor and my father are on a first name basis... he knows very well how we feel

 

Is he on fchat? That'd be cool. Because i'm like...almost mayor...and I'm here on fchat!

 

Yes Vasco..I know "the beer house" very well. Quite impressive..but I wouldn't wanna paint it. Some of the rooms inside are..shall was say jaw dropping. Casa Loma has nothing on this place.

 

I disagree.........I was at Casa Loma 2 weeks ago.

According to data, Casa Loma cost 3$ million dollars back in 1911. That would equal almost $100 million dollars in todays money.

 

Yea it's nice but doesnt have nearly the style of this Oakville home.

 

What do you mean? Casa Loma was an original design from 1908!

The new Oakville mansion is just a modern copy of an old design! (With an underground parking garage!)

They don't make them like they used to.

 

Don't get me wrong..Casa Loma is quite the place..But this place is staggering. Inside is where the the home shines above Casa Loma

 

is the beer house the one with the 30 car garage?

I'm sorry. But in 1908 would still have been a "copy". That aint old. I know you've been to Europe....so you know what I mean

Heck, our house downtown T.O is older than Casa Loma. 1896!

No Chester Hall isn't that 30 car garage place. Two different properties.

where abouts is the 30 car one?

granturismo in downtown oakville tonight around 8

 

Silver GranTurismo westbound on Burnhamthorpe in Mississauga. Exhaust sounded spectacular.

Original 1967 GT500, or a damn good replica, about 3 cars behind the GT.

 

Nice Pozzi Blue 430 on the back roads in Milton this morning.
I snapped a couple of pics, will post them up soon.

I must say, it's a beautiful day for a drive!

 

Went to the auction on Fri nite with MarioZ. Why do they call this a collector car auction anymore? Lots of trash. Seriously, tell me how a late model Cadillac sedan is a collector car? Ok, then the stock Ford Ranger or Dodge Durango? And even the collector stuff, not much was in good condition.

3 Ferraris. A beautiful 308 GTS represented by Segals. Also, a burgundy 456 manual, damage to rear bumper cover and passenger door not sealing proper. And a black 348 which was 'ok'. Obviously not cared for very well in their lives - the 456 and the 348.

I fell in love with a hot red Maserati 228 with Antera rims.
