    I would say there is a high chance the spyker you took a pic of is the same one I saw. Its the first one I've seen on the road and I can't imagine its a common car to see.

    By the way when and where is the Winnetka show? Is it a regular thing? I never find out about these things until after they are over :(

    Someone posted about it in the last thread, towards the end. Once I get on my home computer, I'll post a link (unless I get beaten to it). It's once a month on Sunday mornings, and it happened on the day of Galleria Marchetti. I've never been to one yet, but hopefully next month.

    In the meantime, all near each other in Skokie today:
    Ferrari F430 TdF
    Ferrari 355 Spider
    Rolls Phantom
    Classic Bentley Azure
    Porsche 911 997.2 GT3.

    Classic Rolls Royce in Lake Forest
    Audi TTRS (my first) in Lake Forest

    @ Woodfield there was a yellow Lotus

    Barrington: 2 California's, 1 red 1 black, black Quattroporte,red Viper Convertible & a yellow Corvette Z06 with an awful car bra...

    @ Wynstone apparently Johnny Knox was getting married (never saw him) but there was a black Fisker, 360 Spider (red), and a blue Bentley CGTC, I'm pretty sure there all local cars

    Deer Park, the black Vanquish I've been seeing, & greenish Bentley Flying Spur which i'm pretty sure I saw on Monday

    Probably my best Monday of spotting ever: In park ridge there was a red F430 Spider

    Downtown: Grey Quattroporte, green Lotus Esprit, and Mr Goldberg in yet another Lambo, a matte black LP570-4 Superleggera, had SNKCHMR plates! Bentley CGT @ Hugo's Frog Bar, black on black CL63 AMG, white Ghost (with Wisconsin plates), My first Panamera Turbo S! The Elysian had an amazing valet line up: Silver SLS AMG, cream Bentley SS Convertible, silver DB9, and a silver S63, the valet was even nice enough to open up the door on the SLS so I could take pics w/ the door up :) BGC had 2 Superperformantes outside, a yellow Murcie Spyder, and a GranCabrio Sport, then a GranTurismo on Wabash, black Viper in a garage off Rush, a Turbo S Cabrio & a Maybach 62S @ Trump Tower, and another GranTurismo on Michigan Avenue

    I believe they were on loan from Lamborghini Chicago for the Hinsdale parade. Also had a number of classic cars as well as a couple of modern Porsche and Mercedes convertibles.

    Oh, okay, cool!

    So hold up, did he rid himself of the Aventador? If so, why? Now that means only the black one in our area. Not that the LP570 is bad...
