Just to share a nice weekend experience with you:
We took my red Ultima GTR to Prague Center, parked on a busy street (full of tourists) and watched the scene in a street cafe from the other side of the street. Some meters further down the road parked a red 355, very nice I must say. The attraction the Ultima got was unbelievable, hundreds of photos were taken. The Ferrari besides was totally ignored, in comparison. When we got into the car and pushed off the crowd watching was so big that the road got blocked!! Don´t know about comparing performance but concerning attraction it was a clear victory for the Ultima.
Peter

P.S.: I have some new mpg video clips of the Ultima after complete winter re-build (new motor, cold air box, new cooling system, new interior,...) but have no idea how to post them because I have no personal web site. If anybody has an idea, please tell me.

Thank you for all replies and offers to help!

Luca: I will send you an e-mail, I need instructions where to and how to send...

PetrolTed: Thank you for the offer, I will mail you, too, but please do not expect too much in terms of video quality. My wife filmed from the passenger seat, trying to hold the camera firmly but did not really succeed... I will definitely not be angry if you decide not to post it. I will send you a mail.

d3vine: I want to do some more videos, which I could post later. Not really road racing but pretty fast anyway. I think that there are too few Ultima videos around, at least I would have loved to see more when I was before my buying decision two year ago. BTW, I have a CanAm video, professionally filmed out of a fast car following the CanAm, going at a speed of more than 200 kph through one of Prague´s main roads in the center, including power slide - but I cannot put that on the net, not really legal and educational...

If you decide to put the canam video online, send it over my way. I run a private ftp site with Ultima car videos. I only let Ultima car enthusiasts in. Rightnow, I have over 20 videos.
