Did you see it up close? Did you see inside? Did you see the fat engine? Did you TOUCH it?? If not, it doesn't count. I saw one on display this weekend at the California Speedway. It was right next to an orange Diablo. Oh, man. Perfect cars. No car even comes close.

If you like it so much perhaps you should spell it correctly. :)

Don't forget the é.

Yeah but he saw it in real life, not at a show, so it does count!

I was driving my former Plymouth Reliant('85, with 2.6L Mitsu engine :eek: :D ) when suddenly I found myself behind a big assed Ferrari Testarossa!!! Sweet car.

I'll be auctioning my Autograph on Ebay, bid high, bid often! This is a one-shot deal!!!! ;)

What's an assed Ferrari? Is "assed" a tuner shop?

I'd cream my pants. Talk about a car that will get you some.

1) My God I actually know what these cars are because of NFS, Hot Pursuit 2.

2) I just realized... Murcielago = The Wraith w/ Charlie Sheen

Heh, sorry to break it to you, but the Murcielago was not in the Wraith. The Murcielago wasn't even around as a production vehicle until (and I don't remember exactly) maybe this or last year.

The car in the wraith was, IIRC, a plymoth or chrysler prototype vehicle. Two or three existed in the world, I believe.

The "Turbo Interceptor" featured in the movie was a "real car". It was loaned to the production by Dodge and was, in fact their PPG pace car -Codename M4S. It had a 2.2 litre twin turbocharged engine very similar to to the Ford Cosworth unit that European readers would know all about from the 80's Ford Sierra budget Supercar.

Yeah, that is a sweet car. I was in Frankfurt in 2001 at the premiere, about 5 feet away. Fortunately the drool landed on my shoe instead of splashing onto the car.
