Orange manual SL, picking her up on 25th then going down to the factory with the Spyder also in tow, followed by a trip to Spa the following week.

Can't wait! bounce

Is that because the colour is plenty loud enough?

Do you call it the 'gulf exige' because it should be covered in fuel and set on fire? or because you secretly wish an iraqi terrorist to fly a jumbo jet into it? if i had a car that badly painted i'd be wishing for one or both, definitely!

That's not very nice! Should I not be bringing it to your track days any more?

Ouch, 550 isn't nice. Sorry to hear you got done... 550 is stiff for speeding, guess you were lucky they didn't flip into the next level of fine: income related ones!

Will definately be doing lots of passes, there's a "loop" south of me which takes in Grimsel, Furka & Susten passes in one trip.

Obviously love the Superleggera. Has to be at the top of my tree in terms of 'wants for the future'

I also love the Exige, saw one in a slightly different scheme at Christopher Neils Lotus in the NW

Have some more whipped cream on that ice cream, that should settle you down again

A man with taste!

Didn't know there were 2 Gulf Exiges...thanks for posting that. The blue on mine looks better in the flesh, on pictures it tends to wash out

Will be doing those in September. Really looking forward to it. Staying at the Grand Hotel Giessbach, so nice and handy for the passes.
