Michelin Tire Poster

I saw this the other day at the tire shop, I'm thinking about going back and just asking them how much they want for it. It was commemorative poster branding all the best cars in the world. It had the CLK GTR, F1 LM and many others posted on it. Anyone know of any sites to order a new one?

Re: Michelin Tire Poster

It has the following cars, McLaren F1 LM, CLK-GTR, Koenigsegg CCX, Caparo T1 and two more cars. The posters background is white with blue striping on the top an bottom. The ad mentions about all the fastest cars being equiped with michelin tires. That's all I can give now, tomorrow I'm going back throwing them an offer for the poster.

Re: Michelin Tire Poster

Re: Michelin Tire Poster

Yes - taken by Drew Phillips or Frank Filipponio. Michelin should have made a poster from it.
