    Just a hunch :D

    Black ML55 w/ rims. Taken on Nov. 24/2007 with a Canon Powershot A630. Also guessing that it is located in Calgary.

    Yikes...maybe I need to stop taking pics...I had no idea how you even found that out!

    I thought I took it with a Canon S50...but I also have a A630 so it is entirely possible. ...how did you find that out/how can I block this info?

    Silver Bentley Continental GT by Calgary Jewellers today.

    Anyone know why there is a Blue Ferrari 360 sitting in the Heninger Toyota Showroom/shop?

    Maybe the original owner gave up fighting the Calgary Winter and traded for a Tundra.

    The long way home
    That 360 is a mess (poorly repaired accident history and requires servicing) and spent the better part of the last 2 (maybe 3) years all over Vancouver... finally someone found an unsuspecting buyer, in this case, the pre-owned manager at Henninger Toyota.

    Does that 360 at Hemaroid Motors....errr Heninger Toyota.....happen to have Crema guts and a 6 speed manual ? Is it TDF Blue ?

    If so I know all about it as I know the last owner and what that car is like. A POS........

    Yeah, thats the 360. A while back they had it advertised on their pre-owned sign touting it was one of few 360's for sale in Canada.

    HOLY S***!

    You guys know how rare these cars are? That Shelby Daytona in worth Millions! However, the GTO appears fake. But I can't believe the guy also has an LP400, F40, and multiple GT40's!!! Who the hell is this guy!?!?! Does anyone know if these cars are all Canadian owned? What great taste in classics! Amazing.

    I don't think it's fake. I believe there were different types of 250GTOs. this one has rollbars and appears to be more sleek and aerodynamic.

    This GTO is one of the few cars made with the 330 drivetrain but was not considered a true GTO in the fact that it wasn't made in the initial batch. It was however made to exact specs with all Ferrari parts by someone who sold them as fully authentic and then later was discovered for the fraud. A real Ferrari and even GTO, just not worth the many millions like the initial cars. These are all in Canada owned by a true Enthusiast.

    Salar, I thought the same thing given the other cars in his collection. It does have Ferrari guts i'm sure. Keep in mind that even L. Stroll in Quebec even has (had) a fake GTO which he ueses to track. Of coure he also has a real one among many, many more.

    I could be proven wrong on this. But if you look closely, you will see that there are a few clue's that it's fake. Like the mirrors & exhaust outlets for starters.

    I wonder if it's the fake GTo that was kicking around here in Ontario...
