    Ah I see. No that wasn't the Bentley I spotted. "Mine" looked almost ordinary. Shaped like a hatch back (although I think it wasn't). About the only neat styling element were the extra wide rear fenders.

    He was blocked at the intersection and I was thinking about taking a picture, but then decided against it. After all it's only a Bentley. :)

    Reason I asked was there was a GT Speed running around town, but more Gold Coast area.

    Grey 914 following me westbound while in my 964 C4 on Stearns road this morning. Gave him a HUGE thumbs up when we stopped at the Stearns/Dunham light & he returned the gesture. Great to see one of those actually being driven!

    How else would Tony cruise around? I want to see him some time in his Caddy, I've only ever seen the Ferrari (not that I'm complaining really).

    You'll know it when you see it.

    Just to keep the record straight, I like Tony and have had several conversations with him......though usually about nothing.

    I saw what I assume to be this same Maserati yesterday afternoon by Illinois and McClurg, forget the name of the building. I was going to get a phone camera photo but the owner was sitting in it. Much better looking car than the red one that I saw in town a few weeks ago.

    Yup, Tony is one of a kind. He has his cars serviced at Ed's in Palatine, not far from you.

    I think he thinks he's Sammy Hagar, who must be his alter ego!

    AMwn....

    Welcome to the Chii town. You will see "Tony" quite often, usually with his shirt off to.

    Yeah, Gold Coast has a red CGT in the showroom right now. For a while they were sticking to the just Bentley/Lambo idea but they are starting to diversify their rolling stock it seems.

    Spotted and shot pics of many exotics in Montreal. Will post pics later.

    Almost caused a fender bender today as I was trying to shoot a Gallardo behind me when the car in front of me stopped. :)
