Our local group had their Spring Drive yesterday - unfortunately didn't get to go along with them, but some friends from work and I went to check out the cars before they took off. My oldest two came along and picked their favorites (I think I'm training them well...).

Is it sad that I'd have the M6 over the rest of the cars pictured? Also, these parking spots are gigantic!

That is unfortunate.

Also, how do so many of these drivers and passengers manage to look so unhappy while driving Ferrari's and Lamborghini's? I guess money really can't buy happiness.

Yeah, that thing is horrendous. But I guess if you start with an X6M, you can never make it pretty, so you might as well make it as disgusting as possible, right?

Thanks - I got a great idea from another Opponaut that I passed on to our group: they have Hot Wheels to give out to the kiddos. Gives them a little extra motivation to come out to these events with their old man. ; )

Not sad. That M6 is sweet... I think he just chose a particularly fine spot!

It looks like your lil ones are happy to be there!! My 6 year old daughter was not impressed by the cars at the last Ferrari meet up.

Me: "Honey, that car is called the Hennessey Venom, and it's one of the fastest cars in the world!! And look! There's the guy who made it, talking to fans!! And look at all of these super awesome, super fast cars!!! Isn't this COOL?!?!"

Daughter: "Meh. I want Starbucks".

Its wrong... Just wrong.

My first pick: C1.

Ha, I don't know, that kid didn't even want to stand next to the C1, and he looks happier with the M6 than with even the 458!

Well, I wouldn't let my 8 year old pick my cars. The things my kids care about sometimes is hilarious. My kids probably would have picked the GT3 above though, but only because of the color.

Maybe she'll come around. My oldest would flip if he saw a Venom GT in person. Currently his favorite car.
