    True that! That's not debatable. The acoustic designs for the engine were created by Yamaha.

    Agreed about that, exhaust is fantastic.

    Agree with that. It does sound great. I was complaining about its generic look, not its chassis/engine design. Also the price is a bit high for anything from the Toyota brand.

    Cobalt blue 993 turbo heading south on Wells Street at Randolph around 7:10 this morning. Sounded like it had an exhaust. The looks of that car are really timeless.

    Yesterday followed a blue Maserati GranSport south on 94 into the city, kind of loud, even in traffic, around 7.30. Then at Midway around 8.30 a Maserati QP.

    That white Maserati belongs to a Zambrano on the Cubs.


    There are (from what I'm told) 11 LFA's in the Chicago area. That red one is the owner of McGrath dealers (from what I'm told). I should hopefully be shooting a black one soon.

    Cool, I wasn't sure I really saw that because it is such a rare color for this car

    A black 360 spider on Fabyan Parkway in western Geneva coming into work this morning. Then this Prowler downtown Wheaton. I still love these! And yes, people are already reserving their spots for tomorrow's parade!
