    They are not Twingos, but Twizy.

    It is actually a two seater: Behind each other

    BTW: Did you guys see the badge on the GTO: Sierra run from Modena. I didn't see any other cars participating in that but it sure looked interesting. He wasn't speeding however. Nobody was.

    My fav shot is the GT2 in front of Jeanne d'Arc.

    The Mustang is the Shelby version with some insane engine. Belongs to a friend of mine who nearly goes bankrupt from fuel costs alone. :)

    Meanwhile the track doctor moved up: Now doing his business in an Audi-Lambo.

    This one! I knew it was an older version. A friend posed by it last week, and she only got the side of the car in the photo.

    On Route 22 probably leaving SCS, black 458, Lamborghini & 2 GTR's following eachother, orange & blue Porsche GT3 RS, and my first Rossion Q1, didn't even know we had one! BTW does anybody know if the 250 GTO @ the show was real?

    Also about an hour ago, on 22 a black Arnage, black Viper, and a 1940's era Rolls Royce! & a lime green Tesla in Deer Park

    Nice! I loved that Q1!!! The 250 GTO is replica I think.

    McLaren MP4-12C on 94 North, and rode in a Dodge Viper SRT-10 ;) Thanks!

    After SCS went down sheridan road in kennilworth/winnetka and saw the Silver Ferrari F50, turned around and followed the guy around taking pictures, i think it kinda freaked him out but i got lots.


    ill post them up with pics from SCS.

    also saw into a guys garage that lives 30 seconds from me and saw an orange mclaren, pretty sure its the same one from the pic i posted, he also had something under a cover and it looked a lot like a ferrari cover

    then a silver maybach of some sort drove right past my house (florida plate)

    Sorry I meant cars, not photos. The Jag and Bentley stand out to me is all I'm saying. Photos are great otherwise :)

    2X Audi R8 north on 94, got in front of a blacked out one, and saw a white one, which was a V10 I think. Fisker, Mogan 4+4 and Bentley GT, too.

    Silver Gallardo on LSD

    and a mistery car I couldn't identify:

    All black, looked like a 430 overall, the front more like a McLaren and the rear had a wing like a F50. Didn't sound like a Ferrari, but sporty nonetheless. No idea what that was.
