    Spotted in Vancouver today:

    1 - Red Testarossa driving in Stanley Park this afternoon
    1 - Grey Aston Marton Vanquish on the corner of King's Way and 12th this evening
    1 - Grey Hennessey 650R Viper....followed him from Surrey into Burnaby


    Spotted in BC over the course of the week:

    2 - older model Rolls-Royces in Kelowna
    1 - black with silver stripe Ford GT. Found out later that it was the owner of Orchard Ford....at least, he's the one who owns the vehicle.
    1 - Black Viper on the Coke (Coquihalla Hwy.)

    .....and the spot the made my trip.....

    2 modified Gallardos, 1 modified Murcielago, and 3 modified Ferrari 360's on Hwy 3 on Friday evening (Aug. 4th) evening just west of Princeton. Anyone from the F-chat or L-chat?

    All three of the Lambos had spoilers and custom rims (from a quick glance as they blew by me...I was headed west, they were headed east). The 360's seemed to be modified too, as the first one had a body kit and had been lowered (or so it appeared).

    Anyone know who was on the fun run?? :)

    The least I could do for our honourary Fchat photographer! He's a great kid, and I'd bet he learned more about Fcars in our short drive than from 100's of hours of reading about 'em. Sorry, though - only boring car pics - nothing of the Pride Parade leftovers.

    You just get home or getting up for an early work day?

    Great pics Salar! Must have been a great experience for you. That spider is one of my favourites and Tom's is a PERFECT example! What do you expect it's from T.O ;)

    Nah, I had a nap in the afternoon which I NEVER do and now I cant sleep LOL. I'll be ok ;)

    By the way please explain "Pride Parade" because here in Toronto the Pride Parade is a different type of event....

    Yeah - but it took a westerner to show her that Ferraris can in fact leave the garage more than once a year :)

    I believe your Pride Parade and ours are the same deal - but sounds like ours was a bit "bigger", 120+ floats & groups. I just saw on the news that Jack Layton (NDP leader) was in the Pride Parade having a great time. Stephen Harper was at a cultural event in Surrey and looking a lot uncomfortable. Great place to people-watch, downtown tonight.

    Aren't you supposed to be in Estoril making the rest of us jealous or something?

    Salar - I'll take you up on the offer of full-resolution pics, email's fine (no size limitations) if you can't post 'em. thanks!

    Only saw a couple interesting cars - SLK55 and hot-rod pickup on a flatbed. SLK55 owner was a poseur - but then it was Robson Street...

    Ferrariguy27 - maybe a bit more respect, who cares why - it's a party! have some fun and lighten up.

    I thought I was the only night-owl. ClassicFerrari wins that title though!

    I'm thinking of attending the Italian Cultural Centre show later this month, and may be able to give out rides there. Probably ask for victims to donate $20 or something to the charity of their choice <bwahahahaa...>

    Naw - the tj gas fund is covered. One of my customers even offered to just pay my invoices directly to the Ferrari Mechanic and save a step :D

    I have a soft spot for charities helping out the kids - hint, hint :)

    haha.

    Nice to hear some Ferrari owners do donate to people in need.

    Warren Buffet became one of my new idols after his HUGE donation of funds to charity.
