    If you look around, I have posted many of my cars seperately now and again. For sure the LP, red 599 in my profile, then the black 599, 360CS and Bentley. I have not photoed my Phantom, 612 or Superleggera. However, a couple of the people on this site have seen my ALL of my cars, and my detailer looks at this site every once in awhile. If you see this E, tell this guy I'm not full of it.

    However, hopefully this weekend I will have all of my cars back home. Currently, the 360CS is getting the Garmin hardwired and Sirius and HD radio wired to the head unit; the 612 is at the dealer again for the A/C problem (they think it was a relay or the control module); and the 599 is parked at Lambo Miami (they let me keep some of my cars there until the warehouse is ready). However, they should all be done in the next 48 hours, and I really want to have a group photo.

    Also, some of my cars are on my detailer's site. I'll post his address asap - i dont have it right now - i just sent him a text...

    not to be a jerk or anything, but in your profile it says you have a LP640 Coupe, but the pics you posted, and the words you said, are of an LP640 Roadster..

    Just so you don't think I'm totally full of it. This is what is at the house today. I normally don't talk about the Aston - I bought it for my wife.

    Sorry about the quality, I'm gonna take some GOOD pics when I have them all together...

    Its actually a special silver only offered on the Silver edition. I already have a problem though. The cover on the headlight washer disappeared and the dealer wants to have the factory provide a new cover since they feel uncomfortable matching the special silver. It may take 60 days to get a new cover.

    Well, it's a great color. Did you ever consider the Black edition? Personally, my favorite color.

    I had a black Bentley Arnage Mulliner for awhile and it was REALLY hot (I live in South Florida). It took forever for the car to cool off and neither the Arnage or the Phantom fit in my garage so they really hot. I agree that the black is very elegant. I didn't know there was a black limited edition. I know of the silver, the tungsten and the pearl.

    BTW, can you believe these guys think I'm lying about my cars, why would I do that -- I don't even know anyone on this forum - what good would it be to BS about cars I don't own.

    I did go on a run a few nights ago with M Roadster - he was a really nice guy - we got up to about 13mph on the turnpike in the Super.

    Had a chance to see the Black edition up close...everything is triple black! In SoCal, the regular black is the popular color.

    Did you mean 130mph in the Super??

    About the ribbing...it's part of the initiation. ;) Either way, enjoy your cars and continue to share the experiences...

    Just checked the RR site. The car you saw in triple black is the Pearl Edition (limited to 35 cars I believe). I have never seen one, but it looks great on the site. All black with mother of pearl details - very elegant.

    Working on it. Agreed..my fav of the "newer" F-cars touched by Mr. Enzo.

    I'm not surprised if they go for over a $1 Million quite soon and it was the exact reason why my buddy bought his over a yr ago.

    If you are referring to Joe I'm pretty sure he just wanted to see photos for the sake of photos (hence the smilie)! We all love to see photos of new cars (I love your two lambos together in the garage!):D

    The more photos the better!


    Oh - and congrats on the new RR!! Can't believe they can take 60 days to get a small part for you though - haven't they heard of airmail??

    They can get the part overnight, but my dealer wants it painted at the factory due to the special color - the painting is what's gonna take forever.
