    :)

    Yeah, my Evo might not be big enough to hold everything I'm probably going to buy. I may need to call you... :)

    My wife said to me at lunch: "You better not show up with a hundred cars later on tonight." I was thinking: "A hundred? Probably should make sure I get home later than she goes to bed, so she doesn't see me unloading the car... "

    That'd be awesome, thanks! You'd might as well pick up any and all Ferraris, Lamborghinis, etc since I'm sure there'd be a number of people on here that'd be willing to pitch in for excess haha

    I was salivating on this video...! That orange 67 Camaro looked awesome. I like that better than the red 458 Italia although of course I want to have the Ferrari too, and the GT2.

    Yes it was!
    I have a few extras if you know which ones you need. Send me a pm.

    If you find the 430 black/black, you are going to faint. I would bring a list of what you are looking for though.
    I have some extras! I'll find em and let you know what I have.

    Just got back from the collector's house.

    He wasn't kidding in the amount of cars that he had. An entire room with the sides lined floor to ceiling with boxes of cars, either Hot Cases or HW factory shipper boxes.

    I didn't know where to start. I maybe got through 20 boxes before my eyes started blurring. Plus, he was constantly pulling cars from other boxes to show me.

    I pulled lots of older mainline Ferraris, Lambos, Porsche, BMW, Viper, Corvette, Camaro, etc. Lots of variations that I need to go through. Got quite a few of the Classics series--I like that Spectraflame paint. A few original blue cards: Countach (two variations), Vipers (lots of variations).

    He had tons of older special series cars as well: Race Teams, T-Hunts, 100%, etc., but I didn't buy any of those.

    It just got to be late, so I decided to leave without going through more boxes. Now that he knows what I'm looking for, he's going to pull more cars and set them aside for me. I told him some specific Ferrari variations that I'm looking for. (i.e. black/black 430 Spider, etc.)

    Other collectors will be visiting him over the next few days, so I'm sure that most cars will be gone. It was definitely worth the trip, though. Remember everyone, keep an eye on Craigslist... you never know what you'll find out there!

    I spent $47.

    Took home over 150 cars. Most were a quarter, a few were more expensive. (the early blue cards, for example)

    I'm trying to decide whether to go back tonight... :)

    WOW! So many nice cars. I wish I lived where you live, then I'd head straight to that guy's house.

    Just hit the localish K-Mart and man were the racks empty... maybe 30 cars total on the pegs... but... of those 30 cars 2 were 458's, 1 was a GT2, 2 were G37's, and 1 was the Focus RS. So I grabbed 'em. I also found the one Larry's Garage car I'd been looking for, the Buick LeSabre concept car. Gotta love a successful hunt.

    Too bad I still can't find the Citroen C4 Rally...

    The GT2 really infuriates me. They built the car so that the rear track is wider than the front track, just like it should be. WHY COULDN'T THEY DO THAT ON THE MURCIELAGO AND REVENTONS? Morons.
