Veyrons are focused on being 'the fastest' ... will their lines age that way, too?

Anybody think in 15 years Veyrons' looks will have aged as gracefully as 993s have?

Laguna Seca shot to satisfy the BMW fans....

Added bonus - on the far left is RLer AlpinaDvl, dropping off his Alpina B12 5.7 coupe for the invitation-only showcase section of the BMW corral: 1 of 57 made; the only in the U.S.
It's amazing that his ultra-rare show-car doubles as a doggy limousine, with a canine suite in the back seat! (Also amazing that all the cushions fis in the trunk during display.)

Well, the Veyron isn't pretty (I'm being polite) now so I'm unsure how to describe the car's ageing process.

I would have loved to see the 6 wheel Tyrrell. One of the things I like about F1 is the inovation. Too bad no racing series today allows "outside the box" thinking any more. I wonder where they get tires for something like that?

Dan-- For you, from theAutoLounge.net:

Justification for murder – yes that serrated edge bicycle pedal is scraping up against the paint of a 959-S of which only dozens were produced compared to hundreds of 959 models.

Very glad you could make the party! (However: remove all photographic evidence, so that RLers don't find out I've enjoyed 918 viewings with RLers twice in four days )

Have any Legends of the Autobahn shots to post? Please zap me Speedy pix from there whenever convenient.

Was surreal fun having you, AlpinaDVL, Marc, Kristen, & national PCA staff there all at the same time!

Funny you mention da beers: Paul called that his Igloo cooler of 'secret cleaning agents' behind his gorgeous BT C2S (see below).

IIRC, that shot was taken right before y'all hit the auction ... when cooler was empty
