Another supercar sighting

TonyLukes3 · 05-12-2007, 11:37 PM

This is why I keep my camera with me at all times when driving around. Man, what a sound from the exhaust! There are WAY too many exotics running around these days, but hey at least we get to see them in the flesh instead of always in magazines

Seeing the Porsche dealer in the background you think he was an owner in for service or test driving?

010101 · 05-13-2007, 01:55 AM

Johnny Lin · 05-13-2007, 01:58 AM

Dude u should have raced him..

Lol Nice pics

I've seen one in my area, too -- twice, in fact. I think the guy lives (relatively) near me. Both times, I was right behind him at a light. Both times were within a block of each other, but 6 months apart. The sound from the exhaust is just sick.

Like lots of big cities, there are a few "supercars" tooling around here. Nice to see from time to time. I spotted a Mercedes McLaren the other day coming home from work. Also, we had a brand new Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 show up at Starbucks yesterday as we were planning the next DC metro meet. The guy stopped to talk to us and show off his car.

The Carrera GT and the Macleran (sp?) are my 2 favorite super cars. I've never seen either one in person. That GT looks incredible.

RokX · 05-14-2007, 12:39 AM

Ah, one of my dream cars! Its really sad, Albuquerque NM sucks so much ass. Probably the coolest cars I've seen around here is an M5, a few Vipers and Z06's

Can't wait to move up to Denver in a month. MUCH better city.

010101 · 05-14-2007, 12:56 AM

I've actually seen over 10 of these. most of them were on dealer lots. I saw 3 on the street. It's amazing how common cars of this price are in some parts of LA

Zeiss · 05-14-2007, 03:58 AM

Nice pic!

I spotted a sliver one here. They are stunning!!!

jonerik26 · 05-14-2007, 04:14 AM

nice...

TonyLukes3 · 05-14-2007, 08:28 AM

It's amazing how many exotics and supercars are popping up around here. I don't live in a "city" per say, but we have over 130,000 people now. It's a huge town with a lot of rich people hiding here. So far I've seen 2 Carrera GT's, a Ferrari F40, multiple 360's, Vipers, 911 Turbo's, a GT3, a GT2, Mercedes SLR McClaren, etc. I love it!

Nah, he's a real estate broker I believe. He had an '06 911 Turbo, must have gotten bored of it already...

I would have, but my Z3 said it wasn't in the mood

Dammmittt · 05-14-2007, 09:10 AM

It's a shame that porsche decided to end production. Only ones I've seen were at the Porsche factory in Stuttgart.
