Early bday gift from wife!!!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
NYC Dream Car Tour August 20th (not even my bday). IM IN THERE!!!!
from the site:
The Dream Car Tour™ is an alternative to our daily exotic car rentals and is a unique and exciting opportunity to experience world-class driving - and the thrill and passion of six different exotic sports cars - all in a single day - for less than the cost of one standard rental.
The Dream Car Tour puts you and up to twelve of your friends, family members and associates behind the wheel of some of the world's most exhilarating automobiles - for as little as $595!
Your day starts as you step into the GDC clubhouse and sit down for breakfast or lunch and register for your Tour -- yes, we know you probably didn't sleep much last night, but ya gotta eat! You'll then have an opportunity to meet the other participants on your session; The wonderful thing about the Dream Car Tour is that we've had 100s of participants from age 21 to age 81 coming from all walks of life (and all parts of the world). But one thing's for sure -- everyone shares a passion for exotic & luxury cars.
We then gather for a short safety presentation during which we introduce the GDC staff, outline the Rules of the Road, give an overview of the vehicles you'll be driving, and answer any pre-Tour questions.
Then it's time for an overview of the cars -- we step you through each of the vehicles you'll be driving and make sure you're fully comfortable with their safe operation - how to shift gears, where the parking break is, how to avoid collapsing from excitement, etc.
Of course then it's time to hit the road - you'll get behind the wheel and embark on a heart-stopping 150-mile trek through the area's best highways, byways, and local roads. We've been running these Tours for over 3 years now and we're confident that we've found the absolute best roads the area has to offer - you won't be disappointed!
Every 20 - 30 minutes, we'll pull over at designated checkpoints and participants will switch cars round-robin. Then it's off for another romp behind the wheel.
And you'll do that six times.
Finally, we'll return to the clubhouse - exhausted and exhilirated - and wrap-up the day. You'll share stories with your fellow drivers, swap email addresses to stay in touch, and receive your Certificate of Completion and Dream Car Tour T-Shirt (wear it with pride!). It's been a day of driving you won't ever forget.
*vehicles are subject to change in the event of mechanical breakdown, which we'll do our best to avoid!

The Dream Car Tour puts you and up to twelve of your friends, family members and associates behind the wheel of some of the world's most exhilarating automobiles - for as little as $595!
- Drive six different vehicles from among our stunning collection of the world's greatest automobiles, including the Ferrari F430, F430 Spider, and 360 Spider, the Lamborghini Gallardo, Gallardo Spyder, Murcielago and Murcielago Roadster, the luxurious Bentley Continental GTC, the stunning Aston Martin DB9, the monster Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG, and the brand new Ferrari-powered 400hp Maserati GranTurismo.
- Compare and contrast the performance and handling characteristics of each vehicle as you experience them for 20 - 30 minutes each on the open roadway. You'll drive a total of nearly 150 miles through some of the best roads in the area (we've driven them all!). Afterwards, you'll have an opportunity to share your experience with the other drivers and decide which is your favorite.
- Learn about the specifics of each vehicle before you drive. Our trained professional staff will give you a complete overview of each vehicle - including full instruction on the operation of certain vehicles' electronic "F1-style" transmission. You'll be driving like a pro in no time!
- Remember your experience with our complementary gift package that includes a certificate of completion, t-shirt, DVD and other mementos of your day.

Wow she is a keeper! lol
I've seen similar events on TV where people get to drive supercars like this, man you must be stoked! I'd definitely like to do this sometime in my life, being a car enthusiast and reading about these cars no way compares to actually having an opportunity to be behind the wheel.
Sounds like fun +1 on the wife selection.

We have a local bike show that Kawasaki, Yamaha, and Suzuki show up to. They bring their whole fleet of cruisers and sport bikes. They do rides from 9am to 5pm and you just show up and sign up for the time slot you want on the bike you want. They take out about 10 bikes pre ride and each ride lasts about 45min.
