    No problem

    I'm no authority on this and Erik (Peloton25) will know more but i believe a certain number of cars have to be crash tested (a la XJ220) or they have to be of significant historical value (#400 enzo)

    Some more info can be found here:

    But its from 1999 so the rules could have changed by now

    Thanks allot for the link, i think it answers my questions, according to the article cars such as the Zonda or early model Koenigseggs arent eligable unless they meet strict emmissions tests.This must be the answer, thanks

    Did you notice the mirrors and the single lug wheels?
    I wonder who owns it.

    Mirrors have the same Tricolore flag as on the red italian Zonda F.
    About the new wheels, yes... It's something i still had to see on a Zonda.

    The car seemed bigger in the pictures :D.
    Does the R stand for Remote Control?

    Oh please... About Lambos, there's another thread some lines above. :D

    BTW... She's beautiful, even if it's not a Roadster, even if it's not "my" Roadster F.:)

    I love the "my" Roadster input.
    Have fun, I'm a little disappointed that it's not the silver Roadster, oh well.

    the zonda is not on the list because it doesn't meet EPA rules on emissions. S&D cars have to meet enviro regulations even though they don't have to comply with safety rules.

    And mikigta is green with envy... ;)

    It's just that... "Right place, right time".
    This is another great addition to a fairytale which started one year ago, 11th of march to be precise.
    And that will bring me again to San Cesario sul Panaro, to discover what's hidden under that black cover inside the facility.... ;)

    YES.

    This time, the real countdown has started.

    See you at Geneva 2008.
