I saw one of them at Goodwood the other day. That's a car I forgot to put on the list.
 
Today, I saw a yellow C6 driving alongside a cream colored 65 Mustang. Also saw a modified C5 soft top from Ohio that (according to the sticker at least) does SCCA Solo.

And, my friend went back to Ferrari last night to get some pics, here are some of them.







Some old F1 engines there; the one on the right was used by Jean Alesi in 1995.

Finally some Vipers for you. I was starting to get worried. :D
 
Me too! :D I was thinking of making my friends go over there to talk to them and then ditch them for a ride but we were on our way home from MTB. :grumpy:
 
I saw a Ferrari 575 driving around my neighborhood, sounded badass 👍 , found out later that it was owned by the friend of a kid I play hockey with...and he's 19 years old!! lucky bastard...he also has another friend who owns a DB9, which I also have seen driving on my street.
 
Saw a silver Bentley Continental GT............why oh why would you buy that car in sliver! It looks horrible! :yuck: I love the long LED bar it has which goes right across the top of the rear window.....

oops, I meant DB7...not DB9 :O, I feel like a dumb dumb :dunce:
 
I think I win the prize for the nicest cars in the weirdest places. Look up Georgetown, ID in mapquest. I saw a Ford GT in the middle of nowhere, somewhere between Salt Lake and Jackson Hole (it must have been going to Jackson--there is NOTHING else out there!).

I also went to a car show (mostly old muscle cars--GTOs, vettes, camaros, etc) that had a Noble M12! Here in the states!
 
Cobra 427 blue with white stripes Old man driving it blew by me on the back roads, I was already doing 120 km/h...bastard
