    like that " Im sorry Carbon..." :)

    It might sound weird but ...where do i get ? its by the driver or passenger door right ?

    If its not like the old cars , then i probably wont be able since the car was locked and the owner was in his hotel room..

    LOL...! Thanks, Patrick...


    Andrew, i keep forgetting how much more difficult it is to lift a serial number outside of the US...

    Here in the states, the VIN on the NNOs is right beneath the glass at the foot of the windshield, on the driver's side... Over in Europe, the only way to get the serial number is get inside the car, or maybe in the engine bay...

    Inside the car, there's a small metal plate in the footwell of the passenger's side; it has the serial number on it... There's another metal plate, but to get to it, you have to move the passenger's seat all the way up in order to see it... It's said that, with a flash light at the right angle, you can see that plate through the glass of the rear deck...

    Merci. :)

    About 7 year ago, I came back to the US to take care of my sick mom, who passed away about 5 years ago, after having lived in Europe (mainly England) for most of my life. My new wife of 5 years has never been to Europe. We fainally are taking a vacation to Paris. I haven't been in Paris since (I think) 1987...so any car suggestions would be welcome, as things have changed in almost 20 years....model shops, car book and literature stores, ect....names and approximate locations would be very much appreciated...

    Man, Paris, although being good for car sighting is brutal for parking apparentlty!! Look at the mess that the Enzo is parked by. I guess it has to get wet and oily and covered in gas sometime right?

    I agree...if I had an Enzo, I wouldn't take it anywhere like that & live it there.
