    hey there

    was eating last night at the hunt club in the gold coast and spotted a fellow in a red ferrari with the license plate "tony tag" - the guy was almost butt naked as we saw his upper body and most of his legs...and there was no visible clothing from our vantage point - we hope (and assume) there were some itty bitty shorts worn. he had an awfully bad 80's haircut with bleach blonde hair and was not shy about checking out the chicks.

    who is this guy? we've seen his name mentioned a few times in this forum....

    Hey EskiChicago,

    LOL...You have now experienced Tony Tag a really nice guy who drives a red and gold 360 and a cadi to match exactly. Never has a shirt on regardless of the temp. Hair is always 80's style...He jams to Van Halen all the time and is always at the Starbucks on Michigan. I dont know what he is going to do because that Starbucks just closed. He would always just park right on Michigan Ave and go in. Always funny to watch and very, very nice when I have talked to him.

    Is the Ford GT a GTX conversion? My neighbor just got an Alpina B7 and the exhaust sounds pretty good.

    Now how did you guess??? Yes. My friend bought an 05 Ford GT. He enjoyed driving his Porsche Carrera more during the nicer days because he could put the top down instead of sitting in his GT with an AC like an asthmatic blowing through a straw. (-Jeremy Clarkson) He sent his baby to Detroit where they converted it into a GTX-1, he gets a convertible roof next month custom made by the guys in the Ford factory. How did you know though? The only tip off in my mind would be the exhaust pipes.

    I remember seeing an ad in the DuPont registry a while back on this conversion. Besides the roof coming off they also upgrade the engine right?

    Some people here have a creepy, stalker-like amount of info on individual exotic car owners and dealers.

    Spotted a black 360 spider around 1:30pm on Sunday heading north on i55. I was able to cruise next to this guy for a few miles before he had an opportunity to take off. Just wish my windows werent busted so I could have rolled them down to hear.

    If you are talking about my story, he is my baseball teammate's dad. We chatted about it right after the game. Stalker? No, just two friends chatting.

    HP gets boosted to 700 plus suspension mods.

    It was featured in an episode of Top Gear where Clarkson comes to america and reviews a number of different American cars. He is quite critical of most of them with the exception of the GTX-1, which he absolutely loved.
