    White Gallardo Spyder passed Symphony Center last night around 7:45. I was just about to go in to see the LA Philharmonic play. Man it was incredible, was anyone else there?

    Today at EBC two CGTs right in front of each other. A gray & red one. These are just a dime a dozen!

    This was a "by invitation only" event. A friend of mine is a member of the Yacht club and invited me. Most of the other cars were from actual Yacht club members.

    Spotted a Silver (not grey) 550 Maranello in my neighborhood yesterday late after noon. Subtle and elegant.

    Well I never............!

    Was it the 'Columbia Yacht Club?' When my Dad was alive(he died close to 30 years ago) we were members. How quickly they forget. :(;)

    May I have a handful of that popcorn?

    I don't think the Viper is a supercar... and I certainly don't think it's ugly...

    Sunday afternoon: 430 spider, intersection of Lake Cook and Waukegan. Did not get a pic of the 360 spider that passed a few seconds earlier.

    Palatine, he services lots of exotics and others i.e. RR, Bentley, Maserati, Lotus, American muscle cars........and everything etc. Weren't you at the tech session at his shop last summer?

    If not, you should stop by his shop and say Hi! There are usually some pretty interesting cars there.

    The 512 TR should be picked up Wednesday and, as part of his 'no charge service', the car will be detailed as its been in the shop a couple of weeks.

    One of the most interesting things I've seen was a Zamboni; yes, he services them too!

    So the Viper I posted up is apparently THE viper from the movie Vegas Vacation owned by a family I know out here. Very Good Mr. Papagiorgio.

    this is an awful picture, but I spotted a maserati coupe in the parking lot of the arboretum of south barrington on saturday.

    I also saw, I believe, an argento nurburgring, 360 coupe heading westbound on 90 near Woodfield around 2pm ish on Saturday.

    Very!

    Anyone that knows him will tell you he's a great guy. He's my BF and services many of the cars owned by members of FChat and the FOC. Mine, Andreas, Richard T, Norm, Joe and his Daytona and 246 GT, and E-type Jag in the shop now. John R. and his 275 GTB, and John K with his Corniche, Countach, Aston Martin, Hummer, Lotus etc. Also has customers that have their cars brought in from Wisconsin and Indiana.

    Tell him Skip sent you.......he'll probably kick you out! ;)

    If you plan on stopping by let me know when and I'll meet you there.
