It's parked at my local Infiniti dealer near Montreal until Friday. I think I'll be there quite a lot this week... :lol:

If you go back, any chance of some detailed shots of the rear end aero treatment.

The family shots are lovely (be careful or your child might want one of those cars as toy in the future!) but not very interesting from an engineering point of view :wink: :lol:

Try leaning on the front wing.

Then repeat while also pulling on it to simulate drag!

Can you see the FIA plate in the cockpit that gives you the chassis number? Then ESP could tell you where it raced.

Actually I'm going back tomorrow night with a friend so I'll take loads
of "engineer-interesting" pics. ;)

I'll try to find it, but I'm pretty confident they removed it, just like
they removed the engine, the "shift-lights" and many other elements.

Loving the photos!

is it possible to request a pic?
We all hear about how poor the visibility is/was from the mirrors on those cars.

Could you try and get a photo as if you were sat in the car looking into either mirror? So we can see how poor the visibility is
