Does this remind you?

For those of you who are well travelled and have journeyed from far off lands to which we cannot return, does this remind you of anyone we left behind? (Sorry for the quality - but you'll get the picture).



I went to the Washington, DC auto show today and had to take a pic. I was quite disappointed in the show. Nothing really knocked my sox off about it.

Life on this forum's been moving too fast, Ed - I've got some vague memory of what you're talking about, but damned if I can out my finger on it.

I am 99.8738976282763782876% sure that is NOT a Gallardo. It is the Murcielago spider.

BTW, who are these people and what is this place people are alluding to.

You're right, John. It is the Murcielago. I didn't post a picture of the sign board because that was also blurry and the particular model was not the point of the post anyway.

Thanks Ed. I was just pointing out Roger's miscue. He spends too much time around erm... japanese cars, and his judgement must have been blinded.

I used to really love Lambo... but now that all the NBA stars and 'gansta thugs' drive them, and tart them up with dumb-ass aftermarket crap, they've completely lost their lustre for me.

I just stick to what I've always loved, Ferraris and the Superior German Car. BTW, anyone seen the new Audi S6?? YOWSA!

Well, in that case you better move over and make way for the Superior, Superior, Superior, Superior German Car driver, then. Cuz they'll be flashing their highbeams at you pretty soon.

I guess as far as Superior German Cars are concerned, I'm close to the bottom of the pecking order... um, wait, are Skoda and Seat considered German since they're owned by VAG?

But at least my Superior German Car is built in German. Unlike the girlie Boxster which is built in Finland.
