Haha was an easy one for me, I have an entire book on the production of the Mclaren F1.

My admiration.

Ah, I thought I had seen the F1 GTR in roughly that color. Maybe it was an LM. Amazing looking exhaust. Though the Huayra might still be my favorite.

Very cool. You're one of 3 other people that got it fairly quickly. I'm impressed.

Both look pretty amazing.

CAcoalminer > Manuél Ferrari 09/28/2014 at 12:45

Well a few people got it right away. It's from a McLaren F1 LM.

It's a fairly unique car mechanically I suppose. Not to mention how geeky some of us are on oppo :D

Haha. I guess the Papaya Orange paint didn't help.

Yeah that and the gold in the engine bay especially are big clues.

I kind of assumed F1 because you love it so much. And because of the gold color. But I wasn't confident in my guess. I should have just said it anyways!

Also unrelated - do you ever come to Chicago? It's such a nice city and a short flight from TX. You could even drive here in two days pretty comfortably.

CAcoalminer > Manuél Ferrari 09/28/2014 at 13:05

Yeah and it probably didn't help that I made a post about the 1995 24 Hours of Le Mans and specifically segmented out the F1 GTR parts before this. Haha

Not very often (I think the last time I was there was 2012). Most of my business related travel is in and around the South and even then, I usually leave that to my employees. Currently, my only business travels are for high level deals or if I'm particularly interested in the items being discussed.

It is very nice. Much more relaxed then somewhere like New York.

Haha true. Your post answered the question in the other post.

I meant more for holiday. It is so nice and relaxed here compared to NYC. And the food is amazing. If I was closer I would come more often. I hadn't been since 2012 either.

I got to sit in this exact car when I was little at a car show in Detroit.

Oh. Well my wife and I usually try to visit more remote areas (like Yellowstone) on our vacations to get away from the big cities that we live in. That being said, exploring big cities can be just as enjoyable, just in a different way. So, it's definitely a possibility.

That's awesome. Do you have a photo?

I do, but I can't get it. Sorry. It was the 1996 show, so I don't remember very well it because I was two.

oh that's cool too. My uncle moved to Montana a few years ago. He's on permanent vacation in the land of relaxation. I went to visit once. Very cool to be away from the cities sometimes.

It's alright. That's really cool.

Montana is beautiful.

Our favorite is the Caribbean. Have you ever been?

I went to the Bahamas this year for a wedding. What's your fav island ?

CAcoalminer > Manuél Ferrari 09/28/2014 at 13:40

Probably Abaco if it's just the wife and myself, but Paradise Island was terrific for the grandkids.

Manuél Ferrari > CAcoalminer 09/28/2014 at 13:47

very cool. I need to check out more islands.

I also need to see all the Hawaiian islands. I've only seen two.

I should retire from tech and move to Hawaii one day. Start a restaurant and drive a 308 GTS around the island.

CAcoalminer > Manuél Ferrari 09/28/2014 at 13:52

The Hawaiian islands aren't bad either. Haha

Yes, I remember your Magnum bar idea.

Haha I couldn't remember if you saw that post. An F430 spider would work as well. It is the successor to the 308 GTS after all :)

Why not a 16M?

I think the car gods have decided that I am not to have a 16M

Also Magnum rowed his own, haha

Nope! They're just telling you that you haven't found the right one yet.

I should know, I'm a god.

Haha. This is very true. I will be a good subject so you can bestow a good deal on me.
