    Back in 1977 Carter Chevrolet on Cannon St in Hamilton was the Lamborghini dealer. I walked in the shop one day and there was a nice new red Countach. Sitting on a stand beside the Countach was it's engine, already removed to fix some issue...

    the silver maserati gran turismo with the florida license plate which sounds amazing as jason p pointed out..
    it has a rear exhaust made by x-ost .. sounds nicer than my 430..
    i also have an x-ost center pipe but it sounds too demonic ( basically straight pipes)

    looks fantastic in that color. Great find!

    Saw this today in Woodbridge on hwy27. Disappointingly, it was a replica.

    How do you guys do the effect where only the car stays of color and everything else gets B/W?

    Pretty awful gimmick of photography ;) selective coloring. You can just select the car using lasso, invert selection, desaturate... or you can desaturate all colour channels except the colour of the car (doesn't always work well).

    Was just driving next to a Rosso 360 Spider on Lakeshore then across the Gardiner/427N. I forgot just how elegantly beautiful the 360 Spider really is in motion. What a car... this specific one though, looked pretty "driven!" Driver side inner tail light was absurdly bright + a loose/flappy underpanel by the driver side rear, and *gasp* dirt and mud all over that fragile Italian paint!!! Oh noes!

    That is Correct. You are the lucky winner. You get to take the car home.

    Very nice. Pretty artistic (especially the first one) if it's really from a phone.

    Yes. He's had some nice cars over the years and his son's a good kid too.

    But not sure why there is a need to post plates...

    My mistake. Vasco, please go ahead and edit them out. I was just confirming that it was the same R8.

    Zak, are they local from Mississauga? I've seen both cars very regularly in the past ~1.5 years flying around Mississauga; I see the R8 ripping through Streetsville village on a regular basis along with his "friend" with a red F430 Spider.

    edit: Just saw Zookie's post; is their 430 a Spider? If so, maybe it was theirs that I see the R8 with sometimes...
