On the C7, I'm not a fan of black wheels, but this looks nice, tied in with the exposed Carbon Fiber roof.


The more I look at pictures like that, I'm glad I didn't get the Carbon Fiber roof (did Steven really just say that???) and opted for the chrome wheels. I think the Carbon Fiber roof breaks up the flow of the Stingray.

A friend invited me to Exotics Rally Turkey Run 2013 charity event, I believe shoofin participated a year or 2 ago, I was expecting to see his Lotus there but no go. We started off at Exotic Classics in Syosset NY and cruised out to Englishtown Raceway NJ for track laps and lunch. Didn't take any pics of the cars at Exotic Classics because they're all online in much nicer pics than I can provide with my cell. Owner confirmed inventory to be valued at close to a Billion $

Anyways, on to my professional cell pics (no red text needed)

Lined up with the team at Exotic Classics...We cruised to and from Jersey. Pretty fun cruise, Godzilla can def run with the Bulls.


458 and Aventador creeping


Acurazine in the house! All stock NSX next to friend's Aventador


Team Salamone Scandal Roadster, thing was shooting the whole ride to Jersey


Roadster or Coupe?


R8 V10 on HRE's


ZR-1


Group shot, some cars missing since they were still at the track

Was definitely a fun day, between seeing all the cars on the road and getting pushed into my seat on 2nd, 3rd to 4th gear pulls, def a blast. Aventador is incredibly stable at triple digit speeds, it always felt like we were moving slower than what the speedo read. Off ramps were too fun in this thing

Aventador roadster is really nice, color looks amazing in person.

Srika is the garage visible from the street? Did you take the photos from outside behind the glass?

Looks amazing. And they must have very good security.

I did take those from outside man, I couldn't believe they had these cars sitting for everyone to see like that. It's at 2020 S. Wabash. I mean you would think they would have covered the windows in some way. But you know its possible they did have it closed for some time, because I've driven by there many times and never seen it. But maybe I just wasn't looking (?) /rambling

Srika's post has some real gems in it besides the McLaren & a Stratos behind it such as the collection of 60's/70's racers.

For one, there what looks like the Can-Am Championship winning Porsche 917/10 behind the Sauber that sold for $5.5 million last year. Next to it looks to be the turbine-powered Howmet TX & possibly a Grand-Am GT350. The front row is a Sauber C11, a McLaren M8 (maybe M8D), what I think is another McLaren M8, & maybe a black Maserati Birdcage or Chaparral 1 Series.

Stellar spot all around to go with that F1.

Let's see if this works. Flickr & photobucket are both blocked at work.
Got a couple shots of my grandmother's new '14 S550.



Not the best shots, my uncle has a really narrow driveway & it was blocked in, so I couldn't get it for another spin.

A McLaren F1 in Chicago?!

I discovered this garage about a year ago after driving by and then checking out their website. Noticed they had a unique collection, but didn't know about their current lineup. Now, I will have to walk by there the next chance I get. South Loop is definitely on the rise!

yeah man I was as surprised as well. I only found out about the garage last week.

And, someone in Chicago spotted the car driving around, have a look here:
