I think you're right Chuck. I looked a little closer again, and although they are all Brembo 6 pots, there are very minor differences in the calipers that I didnt see yesterday. The race Ferraris have slightly bigger rotors than the Porsches too I think. Yeah maybe I did jump to conclusions

Is it? I think they had a hell of a build on that car. Was it them that was restoring the 70 Vette next to it? I was shocked at how much that car's paint stood out compared with almost every other car. GT500 and Maserati there's too?
Lots of Ferraris had orange peel, and except for the traditional red, pretty generic and unimpressive.
The Lotus' Saffron Orange that was in the Sherwin Williams booth was amazing though. I always thought it was the best color it came in. Similar to the Superleggera next to it, but I liked it more

Yeah, if anything, there were a few more last year when they had the "first BluRay BttF screening" and a few stars. They're a pretty dedicated bunch, and I really think thats such an underrated car. Probably more wrong comments made about them by passersby than any other car there too. They have a response to that

God, the adults were worse actually. Also, seems like whenever there was a morbidly obese person around, they just so happened to make it in the picture. Go figure
Them and the old farts obliviously walk in FRONT of the camera as you're taking pictures.

There were THREE last year lol. I thought the colors were surprisingly bland on the car that was there this year. Last year had a cool red/silver and a blue car.

It was next to the Prowlers...without looking up, I was wondering wtf a Prowler was doing with Roush wheels

Hearing all the engines as they were lining up to take their awards was quite nice as well.
I left right before the awards ceremony was started because I had tickets to a comedy club back here, but that wouldve been nice to hear. Also cool to hear it won with that paint...except for the cracking on the front it looked pretty fine otherwise!

I didnt think it was THAT bad. If nothing else, the cluster was reminiscent of the Corolla we had, but then again, I dont give much of a fuck for interior like other people do. As long as shits easy to read, reach and isnt fugly.
