C-GT and Jay leno

What's this I hear Mr. Tonight Show recieved red C-GT and it was on ET? I guess he could not resist a true Supercar from the makers of Supercars. There is no substitute. Any of you CA boys seen it or talked to Jay about it?

Pistol is infamous around these partsPistol is infamous around these partsPistol is infamous around these partsPistol is infamous around these parts
he always said he preferred porsches and lambos over ferraris. Just due to how he finds Ferrari dealers as dicks

There's a thread about it (with pictures) in the 993 section of Rennlist. The car looks great!

Now wait just a minute, are you bashing a fellow Porsche enthusiast without any wrongdoing? You should be happy he sees the lux et veritas

No, Conan does not.

I'd rather see the car go to someone who is a true enthusiast, and there is no debate Jay Leno is one. This has nothing to do with his comedic talent. Jay will love this car, Conan will love to be SEEN in the car - there's a difference.

The " whoop-whoop-whoop " crowd must be served at 11:30 pm and whoever is put in that $15million slot will read the jokes written for that audience. This is the country that canonizes the NASCAR " spec" cars and their drivers, remember. Chevy too fast this week, change the rules to slow it down next week , or the Ford marketing brass won't be happy . Michael Schumacher is that " furren " thin- wasted sissy in the go cart , right !?

I can't believe he has a front plate on it. granted its a europlate, which looks much better than a U.S. plate, but why mess with the beautiful front end of a CGT? are front plates required in CA?

Yes, front plates are required in CA. Looks like that CGT is a PCNA car. Probably loaned to Jay to help him decide if he really wants one.
