    I dropped by FoH today to see some of my old friends. They have an F40GT on the showroom along with the 512BB and 275 that Mr. Risi has.

    Had a red F50 apart back in the shop along with an Enzo and a lot of other interesting stuff.

    You should drop by and see the F40GT. "A real car it is" (Yodah)

    If at pictures you fail then the dark side will prevail and master Enzo will fall

    Here she is! This car was perfect in every way, there wasn’t one flaw with it, no scratches, no nothing. I will own that car one day. I did get into the garage, and i did see the F50 that didn’t have a butt on it. But apparently there is some rule FOH has where you cant take pictures of cars that have been taken apart in the service area. No biggie though, the gentleman who walked us around was a really good guy. Id give him a shout out but I completely forgot his name. He knows who he is though, so if hes reading this, thanks for the little tour, it was really appreciated. There were also two F40s in the garage next to the Enzo. It was cool to see the F50 taken apart. I like seeing the innards of cars.

    Anyways, enjoy!

    Very nice Ryan you have saved the world, but more importantly you have won a side order of mashed-potatoes from KFC courtesy of me next time I’m Houston.



    Thanks for the pictures

    I've seen that car! :) Yes...there at the dealership. Its been there for a while (since I was there in January). I did take pictures, but they had asked me not to post them on the internet. Perhaps they've changed their policy? At any rate, beautiful car!
