    My Measly 21 year old 512TR was shamelessly thrown into the Supercar category at Greenwich Concours yesterday, like the lions need Lunch or something......Out powered...Out classed.. out of touch with todays tech...But not outbeaten!!!

    Too Late....The Skies opened up into a 30 minute deluge of H2o and mud was splashing off the ground onto my roof..the windows fogged up, the water congealed with the pollen and sap that fell from the tree I was parked under , rust started forming on my brake disks and I regretted ever signing up for this event..


    But then, All of the sudden, a rainbow appeared.....and the skies cleared...WTF!

    Well you can't say your cars never been in the rain now! Gonna take HOURS more work to bring it back up to your standards.

    Pat yourself on the back, pretty cool. The Pagani is pretty over the top!

    So what's with this show- covered parking in the background for the more mundane cars, and the supercars are out under the trees and in the rain?? Where's their priorities?
    Didn't they realize you CLEAN your cars with a Q-tip?

    Sorry for the rain... on top of pollen and sap. What a mess.
    I grew up in Greenwich and return often but still haven't been able to time things right to attend the concours.

    congratulations !

    i have been saying this for years - once you see a pagani in the flesh, you will not doubt that it is the highest build quality car you have ever seen.
