I believe he bought Earls red street car a while back now CSX 3282. It looks like the same car painted black. Splitter, rear flares, dual tail lights. Added the wider rear HB style wheels and BB's of course. Great looking couple with an awesome looking car!
He's a real car guy huh, I see he wants the girl in front of the car for pics.

Looks kinda like the 427 that Canepa restored, except for the wheels/tires (Canepa's 427 had star burst wheels).

It's obviously no more a Super Snake than it is a 5.5 mil car but that's what you'd expect from media hype.

Hamilton bought two 427 street Cobras a few years ago: CSX3244 and CSX3282.

Starbursts are easier to chew.

Lewis purchased CSX 3282 a few years ago. It was red at that time. I don't know if this is that car. He also purchased another 427 Cobra at the same time, I believe.

I just finished watching the Spanish grand prix. Had to watch it on DVR since I was out driving early. It was mentioned that during the three week break of racing Hamilton moved homes in Monte Carlo and spent time with his lady in Malibu and was seen driving his cobra. Went on to state Lewis conferred with Carroll on this Cobra and was told it's about as good as any one out there and validated the purchase. That coming from the announcer.

My only "Hollywood" friend as I call him is Simon Cowell a really talented gentleman. I had to postpone my whole trip to Australia a day because I wanted to be there when his son was born on Valentines day in NYC. Anyway I met Nicole when she was a judge on x-factor and went out of her way to be friendly with my daughters. She is stunning in person and hope with their schedules Lewis and Nicole can make it work.
