I have yet to see one too but really need too. I just might have to go to the Boston dealership just to check that out...

I saw one parked on a parallel parked on a regular street in the middle of the night whilst out partying for like a decade+ ago. It caught me off guard that a car like that would be parked out in the street. Too bad camera cell phones weren't around beck then

For whatever reason, they've never done it for me either. And they look so dated now. An F40 has stood the test of time so much better, IMO.
