My neighbor, who is a retired Lieutenant Colonel, was actually thinking of getting a matte army green C6 Corvette. He decided against it though (I don't know if thats a bad thing, or if I'm lucky he did).

back on topic... and keeping with the theme.

That Murcielago looks extremely tacky to be honest.

Better just stick to dark grey only for the stealth fighter look.

I like the kill counter, but I'm not sure I really understand it? Has he run over pedestrians, cyclists, and motorcyclists? images/smilies/lol.gif

I dont usually find many new cars on the net as im not really into tuning that much. I like that 911 tho, i want that paint on a lambo now! I heard about the Reventon as soon as it was revealed, and i came to the forum to see who else had noticed. No-one, so i made an account (reventon :p) and i have been coming here since.

im not sure if this counts, but i laughed the other day when i saw a 911 drive past and it had a personalised number plate. The first two letters were V8, then a space then 3 initials.

I dont have any pics of cars ive spotted (well, loads from MPH06,07 and Autosport06, Silverstone FIA GT championship) on the road. I have spotted:

Loads of ferraris (360s, 430s, 355s, etc)
Loads of astons (DB9, DB7, Vanquish, V8 vantage full throttle)
Several Gallardos (Followed one in the new honda civic type r, in white, sounded awesome and we kept up with it for a little while, although he wasnt trying too hard)
Millions of Bentley Continentals
Loads of porsches including Cayennes and 911 Turbos
SLR
Lots of 55 AMGs
Ford GT (i was amazed i saw one on the road)(near Birmingham, and it wasnt in blue, it was red)
Maseratis (kid in my class has one)
Ferrari Enzo (2 actually, following each other, Very Lucky Day)
Many others

But annoyingly, never a murcielago
