Here's a link to the previous thread on this C & C -

We started this year off in fine fashion - the relatively mild weather this morning (clear, 40F) meant that practically everyone came out. The front and 2nd parking lots filled, and there was even some overflow beyond. It rivaled some of the early-summer turnouts.

Is this the other one you saw? At Katies this summer? The white one?

Cuz there is another one too.... lives in MD

That makes about $1.4 mill. of overp-ic-d (guess letter blanks) _________ (choose your expletive...fill in blank) in the DMV area. LOL

That looks like the one we saw at Katie's last summer - should have MD plates. Owner also has a Carrera GT. Today's black one had VA plates.

Yes white guy has a silver Carrera GT (his 2nd). I'm not trying to blow him up on forums but white guy has a whole lot of ridiculous cars.... like rooms and rooms full of them.

He told me how he ordered that LFA like right when they announced their production before real pricing was out etc. and put down couple hundred k $s and he said bunch of time went buy and dealer finally called and said "you're car is here come and get it", and he said he was expecting to have to write a check for another $50k or so and they said.... "bring another $250K and were all set".... he said he was like "WHAT!!" but just laughed it off and tries to enjoy it. He does love that car and he has a real base of other super cars for comparison. Me personally, I'd be driving the Carrera GT all day long.

LOL!!

Anyone coming out to Katie's tomorrow morning? It's going to be cold and I'm trying to gauge whether or not to go. My dad is in town and would love to check out some cars.

rcollum 01-13-2012 12:40 PM

Chris, I expect there will be a decent showing, but nothing like last weekend. I know Bob S is planning on bringing out 3 Shelbys.
I'd be amazed if we didn't have at least 30-40 cars.

It won't even be above freezing until 10am.

TMAC 01-13-2012 07:51 PM

I really miss going to this event but I don't miss the cold. I am happy to be down here in Tampa, FL where our high tomorrow is 65 :D

Proof positive that we have some die-hard people coming to this event. Clear and cold this morning, high 20's. Luckily, no wind. Still, we had something on the order of 60 or so cars. I took the shot of the lot right at 7:30AM.

Several groups came in threes - Camaros, Shelbys... we even had two Rolls Royces and a Bentley show up together.
