    Really! It's probably a customer's car, so I'm wondering if they would allow pictures/video of it.

    I could probably help with a Lotus Espirit V8 TT located in Brecksville.

    Nope, it's the private collection of another F-chatter.

    Let me know if you find anything, that would be awesome to include that car!

    And dammit, just when I thought I had knocked out all the Ferraris, I just found out that the 365 California has popups, and only 14 of those were made. Anyone know where to find one?

    I just purchased a C4 vette, but it's not a Callaway. If you're interested, let me know.

    Don't forget the first gen Mazda 323F. I always loved these....too bad we never got them here in the US.

    And don't forget there are various model Venturis (I have always loved these). The Atlantique, the 400, etc.

    And don't forget the Matra M530. Someone already mentioned the Matra Murena, but don't forget the Matra Bagheera either. Green car pic attached. Beautiful.

    Or if you really want to get weird the Reliant SS1.

    And I assume you got the TVR Tasmin and subsequent TVR wedge cars?

    Now that's a list of cars I don't have!

    I imagine these cars would be super hard to find in the states. I would love to get the Reliant SS1, if they even exist here. I do have a couple of TVR Tasmins.

    Anyone have any ideas on where to find the rest?

    I have a couple of Toronados! Very cool cars. :)

    I don't want to wait too much longer, but there are a few cars that I REALLY want to get before I release it. Hopefully very soon!

    Wow! I've never heard of that one. I can't imagine that one being an easy find.

    I don't think that car there any more. I was just on a tour of the collection and it wasn't there.

    I had one of those once. The light switch was a long bar on the right side of the dash panel that you'de slap a couple of times to pop them up. From memory, the tacho was a series of square LEDs in a hockey stick shape and cassettes went in upright like a ghetto blaster. Nice car for it's time.
