You and everyone else I sent them too! I am having sizing issues. Any tips on a fast way to compress?

I don't know about a fast way, I do each individually and usually resize to 971x645. You also can't go wrong with 800x600.

Cayennes abroad

Not in Italy, but I didn't want to start a separate thread.

I saw more pimped out Cayennes on daily basis in Kiev than I do in NYC.

Parking is allowed on sidewalks, so don't think this Cayenne had special privileges:

More to come.

Ah, Italia

Great shots of a beautiful country; makes me want to go back. Glad to see the Germans are making some inroads in Italian motoring. BTW what were those two little red cars in one of the pictures?

...except cosmetics (spoilers&hamann labels) I doubt about REAL hamann engine upgrade in that car...it was probably stolen in europe and sold for 30% of it's value in Kiev...

...may be for him?...

And your reason for doubting would be?

Something that was "stolen in europe" would be marked up in Kiev, and not otherwise :-D

...NO owner knowledge in a subject area (...hamann USUALLY sticks back label 5 cm higher on a different car horizontal line on a Cayenne...

...owner reminds me those wanabe US guys sticking "AMG" to the back of their S500 MBs even WITHOUT removing original car "S500" label)

...and no ANY taste in owner wheels selection...whose chrome pimp wheels are a TASTELESS "pornography" and

do NOT belong to this car... stock wheels look better

...this is what belongs to such a car from hamann.de line of wheels:

Maybe, maybe not. Not convincing enough, sorry :-D

As far as which wheels belong on this car, it's really up to the owner's taste or lack of such.

Same place

Gatto Nero in Cernobbio

Villa Balbianello where Star Wars & James Bond have been filmed

And finally, Clooney's humble abode once again, but I'm guessing this one's for the ladies as well, eh? :-D

Man, I need to get home.....

Enigma, thanks for the pictures, great as usual.....

Just returned from a stay at Il San Pietro and would like to add some visuals from this magnificent place. Huge thanks to rome, who is a connoisseur of all things Italy, for all of the recommendations :-).
