Chicago Exotic Cruise/Meet ***UPDATED: 70+ PICS***

Last week I dediced to get a buch of exotics for a meet and cruise. We had 3 HD cameras as well as 6 hours of footage (from the burbs to the city, downtown, lower wacker, lake shore drive, etc....). About 20 cars in total participated. To my knowledge this hasn't been done in Chicago, so wanted to try something different. Stay tuned for the HD vid.

get off his nuts about hanging with exotics in an NSX. the NSX may not be in the same ballpark price wise, but im sure it can out handle and out track a lot of the cars in the pics.

besides...the NSX is the most exotic production car for japan.

Wow that's an amazing group of cars. Those white Countaches are still incredible looking even 20 years later. I thought for a second you put a Lambo door kit on your NSX when I saw the orange Diablo half hidden behind the other Lambo!
