Gotcha both beat. The C/GT was in a parade this last spring. In the span of 1/2
hour I overheard:
"Say, look at that! Its not every day you see a Maserati."
"Boy, have you ever seen an uglier car!"
Sigh.
BTW: As a Club function, you really ought to see if you can get your cars to
participate in a parade. Most parade organizers love the idea of more
participants. For 'hosting' an event for your Club its a no-brainer. You get the
Marquee out in front of a lot of people and, being in the parade, its the best
seat in the house for girl\b\b\b\b people watching. Cheap thrills!
