Haha lilmira. I think the only more extravagant paintjob would be the Martini stripes in the Weissach package. Hopefully I spot this car sometime over the summer. :drool:

Damn...no kidding.

I think I saw a silver Carrera GT turn out of Beacon Hill onto Sarcee several days ago. Sounded sick.

I think I saw a photo of this car in Toronto? Same colour anyway, maybe different car. Looks insane in acid green! :eek:

nope, one of them has the new McLaren P1 that's already been spotted a bunch. Sexy car, but personally I like the 918 much more!!!

Stop going to Kulu's. The car isn't there, and it's starting to get annoying how many people are randomly dropping in for no reason.

I run their website, and I'm a customer, that's my involvement with them. I was there today picking up my car and saw a lot of random ppl coming in to look for the 918 while they were busy.

hahaha I know the feeling. If people only understood that it isn't their free right to see it; its the owners decision to show it off or keep it hidden. I heard he was pissed that the one photo that I posted showed up. the car was outside for literally 30 seconds!!!

Lol fair enough.

I didn't think people gave that much of a shit about 918's lol

Unlike the LaFerrari and the P1, the 918 almost needs a flashy color to grab the average Joe's attention. Still a beautiful car and the best "deal" out of the three. I'd rather take the black CGT home from kulu any day of the week.

No kidding, let alone buy's the flashiest possible color. :rofl:

But really, people stopping into Kulu to look for the car? come on, if you have no reason to be there, don't bother a company trying to run a business.

Looks like there may be a handful in Canada. They finished the production last month, wonder if this is a brand new car then?

Saw another 918 last night in Edmonton, eb on the whitemud. It was with a group of 911s and some Caymans. Didn't get a good look cuse I was headed the other way, but it definitely stood out from the crowd.

Was it white? I saw a weird ass looking super car that I didn't really recognize in the 2 seconds I looked at it on 23rd Ave by rabbit hill road. I thought it was a McClaren but could have been this too I guess not sure.

I think so, it wasn't the green one above in the thread but I did a double take when I saw it to make sure I was seeing properly. I was on the other side of the highway but it looked silverish from where I was. And it was in the right section of the city so what are the odds that there is more than one 918 in the city.

I was tempted to turn around and chase it, however the group was moving fairly quickly and I wouldn't have caught up.

1000 km on the car - all running around the city and it took this long to get a picture out here.

The Beyond car spotter crowd is slipping!

Car is spectacular! and the only one in the world like it - many of the 'options' were never available for order, we went to Germany and spoke with the build manager to get the car built the way he wanted it.

Also has the full Weissach package.

Cheers!

Devon? Really??? That's surprising... I used to spend most of my summers there, and it never seemed like the "super rich" sort of place...

Saw you on Blackfoot a few weeks ago. I was in my garbage looking (but quick) black Civic and did a loser flyby before covertly snapping a pic of it at the light. :D

QFT!! I would die for either one. I think I prefer the Gulf one JUST a little bit more.

Can you imagine a 1977 Williams ELF livery? Drool.
