What did they do to that 63 Z06's rear? Somebody decide to make it a hatchback?

Even if it was an N03 Tank Car it shouldn't look like that.

Story on the vette was a woman was driving and had a "medical condition" and ran into like 3 cars.

For the 63 vette, I'm almost certain it was a newer c6 z06 underpinnings with an old body put on top or built body. The proportions were too big and it was driving off as I snapped the pictures.

I've never seen an M1 in person. That would have been cool. Lauging at the Mini Cooper. It reminds me of when you see people at the shows with their Prowlers. I like Mini's, don't get me wrong. But it just seems out of place next to the Ferrari's.

^meh you know I drive a mini right :) If you have never driven one, it's great driving. I went from a z3 M coupe to my mini and both are fun for their own reasons.

It's a car meet for all types of cars and all of those nicer newer ferrari's / mclaren's / lambos were all dealership cars. Out there for the advertising. That M1 seemed to be owned by classic bmw because it wasn't tagged or had license plates.

I'm not knocking the Mini. It's a cool car. I drive an Acura TL and love it. But I wouldn't put it in a car show. That's all I'm sayin. No offense meant.

There were definitely some cool cars out there. Were you there when that vette crashed? What did everyone do?

I knew what you meant :) I didn't take offense.

I wasn't there just heard the story from various sources. Lady had a seizure I believe and just ran into a few cars. I got there later after they already removed her camaro and another car.
