Silver McLaren F1 too. And W196. And Walt's Aztec. That place is insane. The Phantom in the lobby was also perfect.
Yeah, I was there 3 weeks ago. They also have an XJ220 in the vault for some reason.

I found myself not even taking pictures of cars that I would normally spend 10 minutes looking at (like that Jaguar CX75)

I hardly took any pictures myself. Only had my phone with me, but still I was curious looking at the fine details of everything there instead of trying to document everything impossibly.

WRT to new NSX. Same people were crying about the 991 having electric-assisted steering and how the "old" cars were better.

Of course that has kept no one from buying the 991, and everyone now admits the 991 is better than the 997 is every category.

So yea, still think the NSX will be fine.

Looks like I'm not the only one who thinks of toilet paper when I hear "Ultra Soft".

Cool story about Dean Stoneman, who has more ***** than me despite having testicular cancer.
