    I'm very glad I decided to haul myself out of bed & head up to Toronto this morning. Here are my spots for the day:

    CLS 55 (Bay Street)
    Silver Seraph (Avenue Road)
    Older Bentley (not sure of the model - wedding party - Bloor Street)
    Maser Spyder (triple black - Yorkville Ave)
    360 Coupe (red - Yorkville Ave)
    430 Spyder!!!!! (grigio - Yorkville Ave)
    Maser Spyder (blue/black/blue top - Lakeshore & Islington)
    Morry's awesome '72 Dino (complete with parking ticket)
    2 Viper RT/10s (Yorkville Ave)
    512TR (red/tan - 4 Seasons Hotel)
    MGB (I don't see many, hence the inclusion - Colonnade Parking Garage)

    Went by the Lamborghini dealership (it was very nice to see you again Nicole) so a buddy of mine could check out the Ducatis. Several nice cars, including the 328GTS in the lower area (which had 355 wheels on it - looked good). Leaving the dealership, I was fortunate enough to have one of the dealers take out the white Gallardo (with black wheels). Good lord that's a sweet sounding car! I know, I've said it before, but it was fantastic. Off went the radio, down went the windows. I was lucky because he was heading to Etobicoke, as was I (heading off with my buddy to GTA to see what they had in stock), so we were able to follow the car (not too closely mind you). Looked like the driver was having a blast with the car. An awesome day all around!

    Sorry for the long post.

    Man what a rainy, crappy day today and last night. Not much spotting going on. However, my friend did take out his 6.0 VT last night and we hit a coupe of cafe's in the Little Italy area. Was anyone out there? Amazing how everything was still packed! I love this area.

    Man, I didnt know the wiper on that thing was so fricken big LOL. SWWWOOOOOSH. Still, the car looked great all wet. At least he is driving it I guess. There is talk of winter tires for this coming winter. Hey it's 4 wheel drive right?....*joke*

    Well, it seems the Orange Gallardo in the West end is no more. Apparently the owner traded it in for a yellow Murcielago. Not sure if it is a roadster or not. Either way, I'm sure that will be an easy car to spot!

    Vacso,
    I actually took out the car for a run with my son at 8pm last night on the 401 east to Pickering, and slammed back home just before the rain. It was actually nice, the 401 without a pothole that direction.

    The 401 without a pothole......now thats a spot.

    Cheers.

    Been meaning to post this picture for a while.

    I never ran into the owner of this car, but in the 3 years I lived in the building, I saw it out of its parking spot twice. This spring, it looked like the cockpit was being used as storage for hockey equipment. You should be ashamed.

    Hi..new to board. Found this by accident and happy to find a local group. Great to see all the different cars spotted around the GTA...in areas I've actually heard of.
    Had my own spot, was doing some work at a house in Milton and what's parked in the garage?? A beautiful blue 308 GTB...'77 according to the wife I was talking to, and for sale too.
    Don't know much about the mechanics of the cars....but one can look and dream right???

    Gonna go back and read some more old posts, some great pictures on here.

    Welcome to the board. I know the car you speak of and it has been in the Auto Trader for some time. Two cylinders are bad so you need to consider a re-build before buying. $15-$20,000 later and you are done :)

    Speakin' of cars being in the trader long....I spotted an 87 Testarossa (Euro) and a 550 Maranello today at the auction for the annual hi-line sale. There was also a bunch of other Vipers, Vette's and crap loads of Porsche's. No big deal.

    Anyone interested in the above mentionned 87 Euro TR? Not sure of the exact details but it looked good. Currently belongs to a customer of mine. I didnt sell him that car but he had an awesome 355B that I sold and an ML.

    Best spot today was some guy RIPPING it out of his business to catch the light at Dupont and Davenport. It was a dark grey F430 Spider recently spotted by a couple of you.

    Man was it loud, he hammered it.

    Spotted the black 360 Spider from Oregon again blasting in and out of cars tonite up Avenue Rd. (If it was anyone here....I was the guy on the motorcycle behind you LOL)

    Also saw a silver 360 Spider parked outside a restaurant in Little Italy tonite.

    During the day in Little Italy I also saw a Continental "Beater" GT in an ugly never before seen light blue colour *ugh* It was sooo 1986 Cavalier-ish. Anyways.

    No one else spotting anything?

    Silver Gallardo spotted on Younge and Sheppard with an asian gentleman at the wheel. Surprisingly, my exhaust sounded louder than his. (I have a stock Ferrari 360 Modena) Looked gorgeous though!
