    Just picked up a silver CLK-GTR Street, red Carrera GT, yellow Murciélago Roadster, red Range Rover Sport, orange Gallardo Superleggera, white R8, and black Diablo SV.

    Apparently I'm getting my white LP640, my black W212, and black 997 Carrera tomorrow.

    ^Wow thats amazing for a Maisto. Do you need membership to enter costco or just to purchase?

    Just saw a red Ferrari 458 Italia parked at the Octagon Steakhouse on Yonge about 1hr ago in the rain. The place is a good place to see an exotic. I also saw a silver Gallardo Spyder there last week.

    Really? Is the last part of the tag "TOY" and does it have orange wheels? That's the car I'm thinking of; I saw it on Mississauga Rd a couple times this summer near my office in Port Credit.

    Spotted an Aston Martin V8 in some sort of kool silver around Ave Road & Upper Canada college a few times in the past two weeks. Young guy driving, would love to know the exact colour of this car if anybody knows.

    Sorry, never been able to get a picture, he drives too fast, not that I blame him.

    As the winter days are upon us. The spottings are few are far between. But low and behold, today at the auction I spotted a few dozen interesting cars and all rather similar. They were all 2007 Chevy Cobalt 4-doors, in all colours, all lined up for sale like cattle. What is so special about them? They were all ex-google cars. All with funny roof racks, USA-miles, dents, smacks, scratches, structural damage claims, broken windows, dings and so on. Yes, these are the cars responsible for the privacy killing google earth :D

    Interesting? Bah, not really. I was just bored after getting home from the auction tonite ;):)

    A yellow 512 TR is kind of rare.....I knew an owner of a local Yellow 512 (Woodbridge) who traded it in a while back. If this is the same car, it is 100% legit, local owned, and properly driven and maintained by a GTA 'collector'.

    If you get a chance, ask the salesman at Daytona the previous owners name if possible.

    From what I know of the car. The guy who owned it did some competitive driving for the dealership (not in the tr). The car also has a chip, tubi exhaust, and maybe for suspension work. Does this help?

    I don't think its the same car. The car I know was owned by a friend of mine, he wasn't into any competitive racing hobby...just a business owner who owned a few other Ferrari's mostly kept in his garage for personal use. Did you get a name ?

    I think the car you're referring to came to Calgary via FoO about 4 years ago. At least, it was a yellow 512TR from Ontario and it's still here... how many yellow cars could there be?

    I agree, there aren't too many 512 tr's around Canada. The one I am talking about is probably a 2-3 owner car, with low miles, in excellent shape. Probably has Tubi's on it too.

    The 512 from Daytona is the 512 from out west. It was bought at Ferrari of Ontario by Mike Louli ( back in 94 ). He is a Ferrari challenge drive. The car is really nice with tubi muffler , tubi test pipes and tubi engine software. it's a rocket ship. It has full service history.

    I saw the yellow 512 TR when it was new at Maranello. That was across the road at the BMW dealership long before the name change to Ferrari of Ontario and a stand alone dealership. There was also a 348 ts that was a strange sort of steel blue color in the showroom to. Interesting the 512 TR is back; the 348 ts seems to have disappeared.
