saw a white Ford GT40 and a yellow Murcielago on 66 today. The GT40 might have been a kit but it was well done and had WVA plates. The Lambo was nuclear orange and had a very young, very dorky middle-eastern guy driving. it sounded AMAZING.

I see an R8 a few times every month out near my place.

Saw a Lamborghini Gallardo on Tuesday and saw a yellow Dodge Viper on Wednessday. Apparently my area has more money than I thought...

grrr....


While I was waiting for the third pass of our gracious tow-truck driver on the PA Turnpike, I saw/heard/watched a Black Chevette with a quarter-tub and a small block V8 roar by.

At first I was like :screwy:

and then I was like :ya:

And then I found $5.

hmm...I actually like that. I saw the regular Brabus smart car down in DC the other day.

I saw a sweet R8 roaring past as I stared out the window...what a sweet car with a sweet melody. I caught myself saying, "SWeeeeeeeeet!!!" when I was mid conversation with my boss. :lol:

Saw a black Porsche Panamera going the other way on the Beltway today. I have to admit ... it didn't look that bad. :oops:

I have to agree with you. Saw a dark blue turbo one on the way back from Norfolk. I like it and would rock it...won't buy one...can't afford one. :lol:

Saw a Lotus Espirt on the way to Adam's today. Managed to get two iPhone pics I'll upload later! I have to admit, from a distance, my first thought was "Did that MR2 get squished?"

Pic added!

sorry for the lo-fi pic, I just happened to look out the window when it pulled out of the alley. luckily he waited for another car to pull out so I was able to snap this crappy, crappy iPhone pick.

As I was leaving work later than usual, I saw an honest to god snub nose Porsche sneak out of a driveway in Crystal City. Awesome.

I passed one while out in York, PA that was all painted up like a Afrika Korps Kubelwagen. Palm tree with swastika and all.

:plusone: I was pretty shocked to see it driving around on the street. As a history buff it was interesting to see but man would that stir up some very negative reactions driving down the road.
