Was at Ruth's Chris for dinner the other night and saw some pretty awesome cars. Sorry for the night photos, it was too dark.

The look on the valet's face is priceless.











And spotted this bad boy at the gym last night. 6MT to boot. Very nice.

Assuming you're talking about the W123.
Yeah, not winning any races in one of those.

My first car was a '82 W123 240D, slowest car I've ever driven, but it was immaculate.
2nd was a '82 W126 300SD, bit more power with the 5cyl, but didn't find out until we were selling it that is wasn't making any boost (stuck open wastegate I believe)

Now that is one huge dealership. And I thought the one I work at was pretty big, but that one takes the cake. Wonder what gave them the opportunity to have the F1 car in the showroom

Infiniti's relations with Red Bull Racing...The F1 car was there for the weekend....its only the shell (no engine or tranny) but damn was it awesome to witness that machine up close...

with all the new Q models out, it was a great way to get some people coming in to check out the F1 car and taking a look at the new models .

Great sales strategy....

I know about that, I'm just curious how that dealer got to have it, even for the weekend. And then when the hell is it coming to the Infiniti dealer I work at so I can drool over it all day lol

Very nice. Is it the same shot but with a different edited exposure in post processing? I checked the EXIF and saw they were both 1/40.
