    Look again, it's probably still in the shop.

    They are trying to make it street legal in the US, that's a Euro version, and needs some big bucks work to get it legal here.

    We really need to identify this owner and then seize this car! A Countach wing on a Jalpa????

    What's next? Gallardo doors???

    LS (At least he had the decency to choose an early S model wing, but still...)

    Spotted a black something or other turning onto Rt 197 from Rt 198 in Laurel just after lunch today. I think I saw this car on a flat bed coming down Rt. 198 from Rt. 95 while ago. I presume it is at GT being worked on. I have now idea what it might be, as I have been going the opposite direction both times I have seen it. I don't even know if it is the same car. Does anyone know the car I am talking about?

    I have seen this on a few of the cars. Maybe it was an option?

    It wasn't an official factory option, but many importers took liberties with wings instead of concentrating on catalytic converter installations.

    So, sometimes you'll see even early Countach S models with front wings because they also served as a front bumper to satisfy minimum bumper heights in the US. (See Cannonball Run 1).

    On a related note...

    My car had a rather tasteful sculpted rear steel bumper that matched the styling of the tailights, but with a factory QV rear wing:

    Although, it was a Euro spec car with no front bumper:

    http://autocrossersinc.org/lambo/MVC-004F.html

    Damn, I think I'm starting to well up a bit...miss that thing.

    Blue 355 Spider parked parallel to that pizza place at Fairfax Corner, in front of the new movie theater there. It looked really nice, although it was getting rained on. It had VA tags; I think they said "ZAN ZAN."

    Red/Tan 355 F1 Spider on 202 in DE this afternoon around 1ish. If you're here, I was the Esprit that pulled up next to you during the turn into the Borders parking lot.

    Saw the same red F355 on Route 1 heading south near 202. I wasn't in my Esprit (hand to go to work in the city today). Also saw last Wed a nice blue Spider 360 outside of Bucktown PA.

    Whilst in thick Georgetown traffic Sat night, I saw a red TR with chrome Speedline wheels on Wisconsin Ave and M. Street. It belongs to a local FCA member Nikita...

    Also saw a guy on a Ferrari Light Yellow scooter talking on his cellphone and feverishly darting in and out of traffic while making F1 noises. Is this an FChat member?

    Hahahaha the Yellow scooter is the only means of transport while in Georgetown, my friend. I actually went clubbing and pulled right onto the sidewalk. Chicks lovvvvved it. As for the TR with chrome wheels on Wisconsin Ave, whats that guy thinking, Dude change your rims. It looked so ghetto.
