    So I had a post a few days ago, and basically all I said was I had seen some cars. Well, because my girlfriend was in town this last week, I was taking my camera with me everywhere. I managed to catch some supercars out and about. The Ford GT and the Viper were spotted at a car show in Libertyville. The fool in the second picture is me. I caught the 360 Spider downtown a block from Navy Pier.

    I am stating to like this town...

    I hope others begin to post pics and make this thread a bit more colorful. ;)

    Saw a black Gallardo buzzing up Racine near Belmont on Friday morning. Also, while driving on the Ryan last week I drove by a Quattraporte--I think they're great-looking cars.

    The Trucker's 360 being passed by a CTA bus and a dude on a moped on Michigan Avenue around 1am Saturday night. Surprisingly a lot of Hayabusa (sp?) motorbikes riding in packs and behaving well as they cruised Lake-Shore and the Mag Mile.

    Saw a 430 going down schaumburg road on june 30th. First time I have ever seen one and I nearly got myself killed while trying to follow it. But god was it beautiful, and when he gave it some gas I got chills. I've never heard anything like that before.

    That reminds me:

    I spotted a Maser Quattroporte in Indianapolis. He was giving me the right of way. Nothing special until you notice the driver: Michael Schumacher on his way to the track on Sunday morning. :)

    Honest to God.

    Frank, this one's for you. Saw a muscle-car era GTO convertible painted in school bus yellow parked on Wellington. Looked like it was just refurbished and had the temp plates on it. Looked terrific. I don't know the ins and outs of those cars, so I don't know which year.

    Cool! Do you know if it is always parked there?

    If it was the "Coke Bottle Shaped" style-kind of like an early '70's Chevelle, then it was a '68 to '72.

    They did offer "Judge" version of the GTO in those years, that was Orange and/or Yellowish. The name came from the line from that old comedy show, "Rowan & Martins Laugh In", where they'd say: "Here comes the Judge....here comes the Judge....."...:) And Pontiac "borrowed" it......(LOL! Yeah, just like they "borrowed" the "GTO" moniker....:) )

    More Squared off in front and back, with double headlights over one another. It would be a '65-'67.
