Sunday, OCT 12th, Concourse D'Elegance exotic car show @ Manhasset, NY

That's right, it's that time of the year to see some rare exotics. Show starts @ 9 AM until 2 PM, so far only couple of my friends and me are going, and I'm hoping to see some of you there as the show should be as good as last year if not better, on top of it, nice and sunny tomorrow, better enjoy the last few days of warm weather while you can. I'll be bringing my GT-R & SLK55.

Yeah, mine was the only one from 9-11, then I left for awhile, came back to the show @ 12, and there were like 2 others, but it was good that every one's color was different.

It was good fun, weather was nice, too bad my SLK didn't make it because my brother-in-law got so drunk last night. Saw a couple of AMGs in the back, one of them being the very rare R63 in black.

BTW, a side story for my GT-R, it spanked a Ferrari 355 Spyder on a section between the traffic light and the west bound service road, by 2-3 car lengths, great fun.

What a show! I looked for you 2MANYCARS but didn't find you. Probably the best car show once again that I've ever been to.

Thanks! Bruce right? Heard so much about you from various members, especially on your CLK BS & the P-Car. I will be looking forward to this Thursday night's meet.

What time did you arrive? I was there from 9-11, then 12 to almost 1. Did you see my car? My wife and a couple of friends were there, but we were walking around so you might have missed me.

I was there from around 10-11:30 then went home for a bit came back from 1-2:30....I entered that contest to win the Maserati Grand Turismo but no such luck hehe. We were both probably walking around at the same time and didn't see each other.

Was it a silver GTR you saw? If so that would be me.

The Ferrari 355 is no match for the GTR. My Clk55 is right there with it. A Ferrari 430 would be a good match from a roll not from a dig. Anyway the GTR is sweet!
