    Jun,

    They talk about you all the time - glad to finally meet you!
    Didn't they just tell me that you put another small dent in your 430?
    Those guys are great - and they certainly speak highly of you.

    I'm in the process of making them a very large - much more comprehensive book - kind of taking awhile.

    Yeah the valets down at the place i'm staying at in south beach put a small door ding in the 430 spider. They actually were doing a great job until the ding happened. Otherwise the car is perfect. Its nothing major but aggravating.

    Steve and Vic speak about you all the time as well. I forgot to mention in the previous post that I've seen your car in person and was amazed at the level of detail.

    Was anyone on here at the ApartmentPeople on Belmont tonight? Sat down close to a guy with Ferrari hat and super cool black Ferrari jacket. If so, I spotted you :) Just curious.

    I have always wondered about European. its good to know they are good people. When I was in my twenties I used to ride the EL that passed over them. They always had a 328 or 308(never knew which) always in the lot even during bad weather. I so wanted to inquire about that car and then it disappeared. The car was the one thing that sparked my love of these cars and it was from a train going over head. I am about to turn 40 and alot closer to buying my dream and its good to know there are guys out there that will take car of my car.

    Saw an Orange Gallargo superleggera on Michigan Saturday afternoon, probably the same car. I gather they only made about 150 of them now that the LP 560 is coming out. Will end up being a rare car. Also saw two DB9s, a V8 Vantage and ...

    I had a yellow 360 drive by me on 94 going south towards the merge at around 3:30 or 4:00 on Saturday and seemed to be talking to a Porsche driver, that one was silver.

    I spotted a red 360 driving around at 11:00am on Saturday I think I was going north on 94 towards skokie

    White Diablo East bound on Irving Park Road today. I honked in my Ferrari and he honked and waved back. A very nice response I don't get often from Ferrari people.

    Yeah black audi R8 is everywhere downtown. Saw it yesterday on wacker and now today on lasalle.

    The guy just drives around the loop constantly. Either he has a lot of errands to run or just likes cruising around and watching people gawk at his car :)

    I saw a Chevy sedan on wacker walking into work today. It seems exotic these days amongst the sea of Audi, BMW, M-B, and VWs.

    What a beautiful car weekend! Spotted today at Hobson and College in Naperville, a silver F355 spider and black Lotus Espirit (sp?) V8. If only I had a camera phone.
