I showed up way, way late (8:30), but the show went long today, until about 10:00. The cars were even more amazing than usual. There was an Aston Martin DB6 Superleggera, TWO new BMW i8's, a Lotus Seven, and other crazy stuff. Check out the highlights below.

Oooh, Qvale Mangusta! A car that's both a targa and convertible...

Are you referring to the Qvale Mangusta?

Red looks perfect on this car.

A Qvale Mangusta. They're pretty rare, I think the total production number is about 250. I saw a black one last weekend at a car show, and while it's not exactly pretty, it's a very interesting looking car.
EDIT: production number is 284. I was somewhat close though. Rarer than a Ferrari Enzo, though!

Beautiful weather and colors, too!

It really does. It seems like 90 percent of them are silver.

I would've never thought these rims would work so well on this.

Damn, is it imported?

Apparently I was the only one on Oppo who had no idea this existed! Awesome sighting.

Actually, they were sold in the US despite being built in Italy. That's because it had the 4.6L V8 from an SVT Cobra. It also came in three guises - coupé, targa or convertible, all at once. The roof panel can be lifted out and the rear window frame can be electrically retracted behind the seats.

Lol, it's very obscure and I'm not sure there's any in Mexico... (You live in Mexico, correct?)

One of these was at the local BK cruise-in I went to as well, though he came from Culpeper ostensibly because he heard that the one in these pictures also comes to the BK.

Ahh! These pictures make me want to go back so badly! It's a shame I live 4 hours away..
Great pics btw, looks like you had fun!

Saw my first one of these today at a Cars & Croissants event. The guy even had a "flux capacitor" he displayed in the car. Never knew they actually had a brushed finish on the panels.

Yes I do! And no, they don't exist here.

I figured as much, lol, so I don't blame you at all for not knowing what that is.

I was looking for the Phaeton but I left before you got there. The C4 would be in this picture!
