Zahir is going to Europe to pick up his Enzo FXX from Edo. He will dyno the car and then air freight the car to Calgary. The MC12 has been in Canada for awhile.
Zahir's getting more work done on the Enzo to get another crack at beating the Saleen? Unless I'm getting 2 different stories crossed someone said just recently that Dan got the MC12 (registered on North Carolina plates) into Canada saying that it was going to be displayed at a car show here and then he just kept it here. But then on a trip back to the USA it was discovered by a border guard that the car was kept here longer than would be expected "for display at a show" and he figured there was some other mischief afoot and he denied Dan's car entry into the country...
Cool picture. That's one thing I miss about Alberta -- those Calgary guys are always up to something insane. Which is entertaining for the rest of us. Good stuff... Thanks for sharing.
www.mobilereflections.ca Jed is great. http://www.refinesalon.com/ Heard good things about these guys.
race city is open for secret streets, so is cars and coffee? And is it possible to do them on sundays?
Spotted this morning on Deerfoot extension: Grey Nissan GT-R, Hardly Green Aston DBS Volante. Other spots over the past week: Silver F430 Spider, Red 360, Black GT-R
TLC Auto Detail........ask for Morris (the owner) or Morgan......403-262-1522........located downtown, underground, inside parkade level 3 at "Livingston Place"........222-3 Ave SW.....been using him for 10 years.
There will be some nice cars on 17th Ave by Melrose Cafe and the BMO parking lot June 3 at around 6PM. Kulu Motorcar customer appreciation show and shine. I shall be there.
Holy crap, where are all the Alberta people? This is embarrassing. OK well, just to ad something to bring our thread to the top here is a video of my F430 Idling with the vacuum solenoids disconnected. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gTx6XSe_VUo
Why not hide out at the Okotoks auction. Some pretty cool iron......er um alluminum. http://www.okotokscarauction.com/en/?page_id=28
I'll be there... Some surprising iron for sure. I'm interested to see the DD Countach and '79 RUF 911 (KDS - Do you know anything about this car?) It also looks like Bentley Calgary is unloading some of their dogs...
P12...... Never seen it in the flesh. It appears to be the car from Northern Alberta that was advertised in the Autotrader for a long time a while back. My first initial reaction to the photos is that the "as stated" $200K of mods is a typo........looks more like $20k to me........965 panels on a 1979 body? WTF for.......you can buy a complete car a lot easier.......and a balls to the wall turbo engine runs $25-45K max depending on whether or not you go EFI.......a tranny $5K....etc.......etc.....if $200k was spent it must be 24K gold plated underneath the paint. Love the "racing seats" that look like they came from Joe Isuzu's rally car. If the 550 Barchetta still belongs to who I think it does, it won't sell either, as it was drastically overpriced when Kulu had it in his showroom on consignment a year ago.
That's kinda what I thought on the 911, but appreciate your opinion. The seats were a big red-flag. I believe the 550 Barchetta and 575M belong to a member here... the Barchetta is pictured with Steve Harris plates. The other you-know-who Barchetta, previously offered by Kulu, is a Canadian car.
