Default Some exotic cars in Toronto

I saw something interesting last night. Apparently there is some kind of cannonball run type of race going on and they made a stop in Toronto. I was cruising down Richmond Street when I saw some nice rides all stickered up parked in front of the Hilton. There was a Mosler, Ford GT, Spyker C8 Spyder T, Lamborghini Gallardo, Murcielago, a few Porsches, Maserati, lancer and a hydrogen powered H2 that said “My Hummer pollutes less then your Prius” on the back. That was just out front, I wonder what else was parked in the underground. Unfortunately I didn’t have my camera with me but I did manage to get some poor quality shots with my cell phone.

Almost sounds like it could've been this outfit. They travel around the US and you get to drive about 6 or 7 exotics all in one day.

Someone emailed me yesterday to tell me about this. It is indeed a Cannonball run type of deal, with a bunch of celebrities.


Here is the link to the Toronto Sun article on the subject:

There were some pretty sweet cars down there, I went down into the garage and got a few pics I'll post them up when I get my camera back from my fiancee

These look like the same cars that were traveling west between Syracuse, NY and Rochester, NY on Sat evening 22nd. We were heading back to Massena, NY from Rochester after 5:00 pm and a bunch of these exotics were heading west on the Thruway #90 heading towards Rochester/Buffalo, NY. They all had decals and numbers on them. Just before the Weedsport, NY exit there were 5 stopped under an overpass with one of them with the hood up!!!
