Nice shots Salar!

I'm flying to Milan next week, but I'm going to try to make it to Modena, as I've arranged a factory tour at Laborghini! I'll definitely bring my good camera! Trying to weasel my way into getting a tour at Ferrari as well, but you have to own one, officially...I've got some pictures of me driving a 360, so maybe I'll use those to claim its mine... 8)

Good Luck, dude. My parents just went through that whole harangue. Your name gets checked against a list of all the world's owners. If you can get on it then you're set. If not, tough... they won't let you in.

It's a great tour, though. If you can't get in, pick up this month's edition of Wallpaper magazine. It's their 10th anniversary and they went to take pictures of the Ferrari factory lines.
 
I'm talking to some chick in charge of Lamborghini UK to arrange it, and somehow she's going to be under the impression I have a Gallardo. They can only track new cars sold, not used, or consignment :) If she needs proof, I've got pics. If it all falls through, I'll go through Motorstars tours, that gets me through Pagani, Ducati, Maserati, Ferrari and Lambo, but it can be expensive.
 
Some kind of body kit or a tuner's version:

TechArt Magnum! Up to 600 HP :D
 
My friend told me he saw a BMW 2002turbo at some repair shop nearby, and I thought it was probably a replica, or just a regular 2002 with turbo flares, but we went and check it out and it was an actual 2002turbo.

This might not be such a big deal to some of you europeans, but this is a pretty rare car over here in the states considering they didn't sell them here. It's also rare to see it in the North East where I am because nice cars tend to be out in California where the weather is nicer.

yeah it was pretty exciting to see it, as it is one of my dream cars. I thought I would never see one in person, let alone 5 minutes from my house.

Here is what was inside the repair shop that the turbo was parked outside at.

It's stacked to the ceiling with old Jags, Maseratis, and Ferraris!

Looked like fun ;) and was quite fast!


@ 2002 turbo:

Funny thing: The SPD (party over here) tried to ban the mirrored "turbo" writing in the front because it was "a clear provocation of other drivers to race"

they failed ^^
 
the SPD wasn't really concerned with the writing, but with the car itself. it was the time of the oil-crisis and the death toll on the roads was very high. and just at this time BMW presented us with their first turbocharged car that was about the quickest non-supercar on the german roads back then, agressive looking with spoilers and everything...
the SPD was concerned with speeding and aggressive driving in general, of which the 02 turbo was an obvious example. i mean, as much as one loves it, the mirrored "2002 turbo" is rather blunt. ;)
BMW then decided to remove it by themselves even before the car was first sold, but it did not take long for the aftermarket to produce them seperately...


bmw m5,

the car is ultra rare even here in europe. only 1500 of them were built and i have never seen one in person myself. great spot! :thumbsup:


something not so rare...:

Today, I drove a Ford GT and Corvette Z06 (reviews coming in another thread). And I also saw a BMW M6, Ferrari F430, Aston-Martin Vantage, and a Bentley Continental GT.
