There's a hell of a lot of Aston Martins.
Started getting boring seeing so many of the same cars...

Chew on this: Gumball rally driver out of race for speeding in Ontario
The Canadian Press May 06, 2010 23:46:27 PM

TORONTO - At least one driver in the Gumball 3000 Rally should have taken the Ontario Provincial Police warnings about speeding more seriously.
The drivers, who are trying to get from London, England to New York in seven days, are spending a short time in Ontario.
They are also under the watchful eye of the police who have added officers and aircraft to monitor the cars running between the Quebec border and Niagara Falls.
The driver of a 2009 Dodge Charger from California was stopped along Highway 401 in the Marysville area for travelling at 140 kilometres an hour, given a ticket and cautioned about speeding.
About two hours later, along Highway 401 in the Brighton area, the same Charger was stopped again for going over 170 kilometres an hour in a 100 zone.
Police say this time he was charged with stunt driving, had his licence seized for seven days and had his vehicle impounded.

Ya I started to get sick of seeing Astons, Ferraris and 911s...wish there were more unique cars. Though there are a few of course; Veyron, XKE, 2 Batmobiles, that MB Van with the Dj in the back...

Saw a bunch of them rip by this morning on York street... The Veyron and LP670-sv with roof rack ripping through the GO TRAIN underpass was heavenly.
