The Emperor has NO CLOTHES ON!
Hey Glyn! Yes,my friend...it's amazing to me that Cadillac has been able to fool so many for so long! 
I've loved the Diesotto since seeing it earlier this year! Gorgeous!

Yeh, I'm jones'in for that....but not working right now, so
I'm resisting the urge to whip out the plastic...
I'm due for a battery...last time I checked I was down to about 400CCA, when new is 850CCA, and down from 650CCA only about a month or 2 earlier, so thats up soon. + tires...Thats about a $600 cash infusion...battery is close to 7 years old!
Grill's gonna have to wait till I get some $$$$$$.
Darlin? Who's callin' me darlin'? "You don't have to call me darlin', darlin'"
(I hope it's a woman callin' me darlin' and not a guy
)

white and whiter
I still think Veyron's one of the ugliest hyper-car ever. The targa thing has new headlights btw. interesting if it was just a prototype.

3 quick observations:
1) Your coupe looks really cool. I love the color...Orion Blue...very nice.
2) The Mercedes prototype need the flat hood badge
3) The only American car I ever owned was a Cadillac Eldorado. I bought it for $13,000 and sold it 3 years later for $2,500. Pretty good investment, don't you think?

That colour always amazes me, it flashes and stand out among other cars
. Looks clean I love it.
BTW did you paint your door handdles yourself? I was looking at a website that sells mb paint in spray, pen touch up and others, but lost the link with my laptop.

Since you were at Pebble this year, did you go to the Mercedes-Benz tent? They were offering test drives! I thoroughly enjoyed my test drive of the very expensive Maybach 57S. It's a pity that I spent too much time elsewhere and by the time I arrived they had stopped test driving the SLR.

Well I went on Sat.
I tried to get in the back gate of the historics, but this time they actually still were collecting tix. I didn't feel like paying $80 to get.
80 bucks...ridiculous.
So wandered around, went to Monterey, then out past Asilomar, and when I hit Hwy 68, it was bumper to bumper, so paid the 8-10 bucks and drove through 17 mile dr.
which when it got near PB, also was BtoB.
By the time I got there, they were packing up as you could see I was lucky to get a pic, as they were covering the cars.
But I was able to crash some art party, with free beer and wine so it all worked out.
You drove a Maybach? Woa.

I'm going to get some and fix a scrape on my front bumper.
The door handles came that way on the car.
