I might have a date with it later this week. I should know for sure by tomorrow.

I won't bring my camera though - all the good pictures have already been taken.

Wha? Come on man, you gotta take some shots! What's the point of going to see a Mac that you're allowed to take photos of but not taking the camera?

[Peloton25]

Well, the opportunity to see this car didn't end up materializing for me (or Malka) unfortunately.

The final word was that it was sold to New York, which immediately had me thinking that it could have landed in Ralph Lauren's collection. It would look nice alongside all of his red Ferraris afterall. However, it now sounds like it has joined the collection of our other F1 owner from New York - Gary Schaevitz - joining #014 and #045.

It would be great to see some photos of that trio together... hint, hint

Bummer...that makes this the second time I missed out on seeing this very same car.

Oh well; like Peloton said, pics of the trio would be awesome.

Better to have a missed opportunity, than no opportunity at all, right?

Ok, maybe not...

yeah, sometimes missed opportunity's are way worse, leaving you kicking yourself in the ass for a long, long time... not that i know from experience or anything...

[F1 monster]

Now he's got 3 roadcars...what is this man thinking???!

[Peloton25]

I don't know - maybe he likes the car a lot - I know I do.

Be careful with your criticisms though, as you just never know who may be reading along here.

I don't know what you mean by criticism? Where have I criticized the purchase? I was just wondering why, as in whether he needs them for three different homes, for a collection, because he's trying to corner the market, likes the colours, needs them to do the mileage he wants to do in a year under Show and Display restrictions, etc., etc. Do you know?

It wasn't intended to be, and it certainly isn't, criticism. Who could begrudge such fine taste?

Edit: I can see how asking "What are you thinking?" is a critical, sarcastic question implying that the person wasn't thinking...but I didn't mean it in that way. I was literally asking what his reasoning behind the purchase of 3 roadcars was. No underlying sarcasm.

Why not Lauren? Source?

What are you insinuating? Do you know something?

Of course I have a source...

I insinuate nothing that you shouldn't already be aware of really.

It was really the three question marks and the exclamation point you stuck at the end which gave me that idea.

I equated it to a statement like "...has he gone mad???!"
