Summer 05 Spotted!

I keep a disposable camera in all of my cars incase of an Accident,UFO sighting,or for FChat Spotted...

 

Such a gorgeous car. It looks like it has LFSC frames so I wonder if it is the Enzo with the red inserts in the seats. By far one of the most gorgeous vehicles I have ever seen. Good shot by the way, just be careful while driving. Thanks for the pic...

Followed a 308 gtsi QV through Bartlett on Stearns today while heading home in my blue Z3 today. Made sure to turn off the radio while stopped @ Stearns & Bartlett so I could listen to the V8 Anybody on the list?

p.s.: Looked like a fair amount of brake dust on the wheels - good sign of a car that is getting driven!

 

TDF 550 in Winnetka

 

Saw a white Lamborghini Countach Anniversary model with U.S. black bumpers at 8:50 PM on Lemont Rd. heading north in Homer Glen and Lemont. I wonder if this is the Countach that Fox Valley Motors said they were getting. I've seen another white Countach at the Italian car shows for the past few years, but I don't think it was an Anniversary model, that's the first one I've seen around here.

 

Ugh, U.S. bumpers. Destroys the look of the car!

The white one you speak of that you've seen at shows, was worked on by my guy Ed.

It isn't an 'Anniversary' edition, if I recall correctly.

 

thanks for the compliments. The enzo was so amazing. I have never seen a ferrari in person except for a friends 360. So i was quite amazed to see this enzo in north west indiana. the enzo came up behind me from no where, i had to check in the rearview about 3 times before i realized i wasnt dreaming. My friend with the 360 just ordered a dark silver 430 so i will post pics of that as soon as it come is in.

 

Sean, That white Lambo belongs to Dan who lived across the street from me when I lived in Homer Glen. It is a VERY low mile car. Red interior with less than 4000 miles. I would say that there are about 6 or 7 Lambos in the Homer Glen / Lemont area.

 

Wednesday over the lunch hour I saw a silver/grey Bentley Continental downtown. It was the first one I've seen in real life. For a 2+2, that thing is HUGE! A coupe in the "Coupe de Ville" tradition.

 

Having front plates really makes a car look UGH !
God I hate front plates.

 

hello.

the 1989 anniversary countach had body coloured bumpers (still ugly, but body coloured) if it was a white car with black bumpers it would be a 1988 1/2 or older lamborghini.

Agreed on the bumpers, but the reason I think it is an Annivesary is that many pre-Annivesary Countach's had the side ground effects put on afterwards to look like Anniversary models, but I think the big giveaway is that all models before the Anniversary had horizontal black air intakes behind the cockpit, while the Anniversary had vertical body colored intakes, which the car I saw had, so unless Mike can can verify otherwise since it was his neighbor, I'm sticking to the Anniverary sighting...that was a long sentence!

 

Sheesh, that was a long sentence!

I had to give up reading it midway, so I don't know what the hell you're talking about!

By the way, John Koziol just bought himself a Countach. I told him not to!!

He's already 'un-enjoying' it.........

 

Black on black 430 coupe flying smooth near Great America on Saturday. Very sharp, almost Enzo looking from a glance.

Today, Friday, a Red 355 Spyder on Rand road near Randhurst shopping mall heading north around 5:45 pm. Maybe someone Skip or Vince knows...
