Congrats on being an uncle! Drop by the Aston Martin dealership to check it out.
Thanks! I didn't get to meet you if you're Shannon but thanks for putting me in. I arrived late and nobody seemed to be signing people in. I smiled and walked in. I had a great time! Thanks for putting together a great event!

The models were something else too. I didn't realize that they were there for Jaeger otherwise I'd have taken the time to look at their newest watch.

i was thinking "rapide" too, but in a different meaning

on the car - it's really special, but $200k is rich. i'd probably take that over a bentley, and it's soooo much better looking than the panamera, and i'm a porsche apologist.
Now that I think about it, I do remember Brendo telling me that they were the newest models for Jaegar afterwards. I agree with you about the AM Rapide looking better but I wonder which drives better.

Here are my pictures..I didn't take very many because it was pretty crowded.












This DBR/2 was GORGEOUS! I loved it!


Yes, it was THIS crowded...one reason why it made it impossible for me to get more shots of the Rapide up close






I live in Bellevue a few miles away and I've never gone to this museum before.




I spotted these two parked outside over by the Bellevue Westin.

A gorgeous 360CS in Rosso Corsa




The black Scuderia that was at Ferrari of Seattle finally got sold.

Funny you say that, my Fiance and I were drooling all over it! The non classic car license plate threw me off a little bit though.

Both reside in America, the other DBR2 is owned by Fred Simeone. One sexy sexy car.
