    Hello Gents...

    A friend recently purchased a Bentley.. I told him I would ask all of you the best place in Toronto for service. The dealer quoted him $5500 for brakes... he ordered the parts from the USA for $700 and changed them himself... but for future reference could you please pass on any recommendations?...

    Thank you in advance.

    I think that Lambo is glued to the road in Yorkville. I saw it Monday night.

    With TIFF on, it's an endless parade of cars and young women looking to be discovered down there.

    I've enjoyed driving some cars through all of that TIFF nonsense.

    Yeah, yeah, I dropped in to some things, too. I find many aspects of TIFF distasteful.

    I'm totally for the event. I think it's great for T.O etc.

    Just that lately my capacity to handle d***chebags has dropped.

    I agree, TIFF is a good thing for the city, but its usually a huge gathering of d-bags downtown!

    They should rename it the TIDF !

    Juat purchased a 1998 Mitsubishi 3000GT/GTO. Red on tan and never driven in the winter. Still no Ferrari but its getting there :D

    Was always a die-hard fan of European cars but I couldn't find anything remotely interesting as this for the price. Loving it so far, been busy the past few days cleaning and driving it :) It picks up speed effortlessly compared to my old car and gets compliments daily, not bad for a 14 year old car. US car as it was never sold in Canada and thus it is quite rare to see one up here. There are a few small dents which I noticed while cleaning the car and chips in the hood/front bumper, both of which I hope to fix soon. Other than that, its in really good condition.

    Nice car no doubt. IIRC the 3000GT is the US version of the Dodge Stealth. I have always thought the Mitsu version looked SOOOO much nicer. I used to have a brochure on it (dealer brochure, called and they shipped me one). I don't think I have it anymore, if I did it would be yours.

    White 599? Finally some more people are having taste. But still question that needs answering, Where are all the yellow F-cars now?

    Speaking of different colours......a very unique spot yesterday afternoon at Islington/Queensway.

    Grigio Titanio (or possibly Azzuro California) 575 Superarmerica, with Ontario Plates.

    I have never seen this car before in the GTA, must be a recent purchase from USA.

    2 Fisker Karmas (black then charcoal) and a silver 550. The 550 had a bunch of Ferrari decals like 50th Anniversary and such on it (doors, hood, etc.). Sorry - was driving - so no pics from me today.

    That's an awesome spot! Looks great in that color. Also, I think the 575 design in general has aged better than the 599.

    MP412C on the 400NB on Sunday.
