    Cool!

    Weekends are a bunch of soccer moms pushing strollers through the crowds with 5 year olds banging doors and climbing all over the seats. Not a pretty sight.

    Andreas and I had communicated last week concerning the 3:00 P.M. meeting time. Since Carolyn and I are driving in from the burgs, the weather and possible increased traffic problems are a consideration concerning how late in the afternoon we feel we can stay. We will be at the show by late morning to start going through the show. So we will be there for sure. Hopefully, we wil be able to see everyone. I think everyone who said they may attend on Monday already has my cel number.

    Hopefully the car will arrive within the next day or two. I can't wait even though I won't be able to drive it anywhere, especially with the flimsy convertible top!

    It's sad that I'm pumped for someone else to get a new bull. Can't wait for pictures!

    I just got it. Here are the pictures! Seeing that the weather is so bad and I couldn't drive it home....... stayed tuned as I am having Black gloss wheels installed and blacking out the tail lenses and all the markers around the car. The TUBI exhaust sounds INSANE!!! Check out the TUBI TIPS too!

    Good call.

    Congratulations, very well done!

    Car looks awesome. But that goes without saying.

    A lady, a Lambo and scissor doors. That reminds me of something....hmmm. Ah yess: Canonball II, the first two awesome minutes of an otherwise forgettable movie.

    I was dying to drive it home! It's like I am still waiting for the car again! I might as well have Lambo Chicago start blinging out the car in the meantime!

    Will do! I will be able to see you even if your in the lane next to me....I'm having the rear camera installed along with side cameras too. The system is so cool, when you turn the corresponding turn signal on, the screen will show that side of the car. You need this stuff, as there is absolutely NO visibility whatsoever!

    are you thinking about any type of powdercoating for the brake calipers(as shown in the RK roadster photo)-just curious-it will look great either way!!!

    Lambo Chicago is doing the brake calipers, with the factory "Verde Ithaca" paint. A little green peeking through the Black wheels is hot.

    That will look great-and I thought seeing your Gallardo in person at Clow Airport was impressive-I can't wait to see this Murcie in person!!!!!!

    Absolutely brilliant. Congratulations on a perfect purchase. Can't wait to see this beast cruising around the city. Those calipers are going to look stunning against those rims. Not that the car isn't stunning already.

    It's showtime. Heading down to the Swissotel this afternoon. Going to be at media days tomorrow and Thursday working for Autoblog. I'll probably be in the media center a good portion of the time Wednesday, but should be down on the floor covering a few press conferences as well. Thursday should be more of the same with a bit more freedom. Hope to see some of you there, and I hope the predicted snow doesn't hit us too bad.
