So do I!

You Americans do have a lot of awesome cars. I love old Americana. Not too keen on the new ones though.

My favorite from your pics, the first BMW Z8! Close second, the Plymouth RoadRunner super bird!

Awsome pics. Love the "tusks" on the trunk lid of that 58 vette. Only year for that option.

Why not a pair of Lamborghini's ? The one on the left is materially different - they eliminated a lot of weight by fabricating almost everything possible from carbon fiber… The owner said he bought it because "I always wanted to have something Italian…" It lists for $275,000 and change…and a tune up costs as much as refueling your G-3...

Imagine this coming up quickly in your rear view mirror, and them pulling away from you….

Did you get a chance to photograph the Pagani? I saw it on the tollway driving back to Dallas. I would love to see a pic. Bc I barely had a glimpse of it.

I saw it from a distance with the doors up; by the time I walked over, they had started up and were pulling away...
