Default My Friend Saw A GT40 TODAY!!!

AHHHH!!!!!!!! My friend called me a hour ago and he saw a GT40 :shock: . hes the guys who saw the Carrera Gt with me. he was going to pick up GTA San Andreas when a Gt40 was backing out of a spot on young street(for all the people who live in toronto) it was the gulf colours and it had the number six on it. he called me while it was backing out. Damn it souned gooooood. the licence plate was "1070GT40" seems long but it all fit. hes a very good friend and i know hes not a liar. i also heard it :shock:

I don't know what to say.. Congrats!


I saw two Vipers today... one just up the road from me and one on the motorway. Considering that i have only ever seen 1 viper in the UK before (apart from in the showrooms etc...) that was a fucking luckly day. No BS, but it counts for shit without pics

One was the old RT/10 in red and the other was a 3yr old Viper GTS finished in Grey/Gun Metal colour ... although it looke d a bit "tired"

I also payed a visit to the Bentley Showroom near me, saw all the current bentleys (of course) and saw a 360Spider and a 575... both in Black. Also got a quick (15m) ride in a new Conti GT... he was moving it around the service/preparation area

Of course.. lorts of customer cars were present so no cams allowed.. but my camera skills are shite anyway :roll:


Also tried to get into Sant Agata classics... massive Lambo dealers, but they were closed, so i'll go another time

well since we are all on the subject of what we saw today. I went to Park Place LTD. and saw so many cars there well starting off the list was a 348 Spider, 360 Race Challenge, 996 GT3 Race, 2 CL 65's with Lorinser rims, a beautiful white Testarossa with matching rims, many many 994's??? dont know what they were but they were race spec, Z06 with this massive hump on the hood, a Bently Continental GT, a Viper, a 996 Turbo, many many old cars, like 5 Lotus Elises, 2 Espirits. thats all i can think of oh yeah also 2 Rolls Silver Seraph and 2 Phantoms!

well the faq that a REAL ford GT40 Mk2 would cost a FORTUNE, and isn't street legal, that's gotta be a replica for sure........UNLESS it's a Mk3, which isn't as good as the race version, at all (still fukign RARE though, ford didn't built alot of it).

He said it looked exactly like this but with a 6 on the hood


And the back had one head lamp on each side just like this


not only its not likely to see a GT40 on the road but also in the gulf colours. i could be a replicka but there still is a small margine that it might be real :shock:
