I saw the yellow enzo today too. The Enzo looks like a lost racecar. The girl that i was driving with thought i was going to have a heart attack. Such a cool car. It made my day. I live on Barrington and San Vicente. I am going to need my Ferrari fix again soon. Thad Brown | ||

Ok I have to play catch up. Lets see. Two weeks ago I saw a Rosso Metalico 360 wiz by, going towards LA on the 101. Sounded like it had a Tubi on it. Then last week saw a Giallo 360 with the challenge grill on the 101. This wasn't a Ferrari but note worthy. Yesterday I saw, the yet to be released, 2004(?) Rolls Royce all disguised on the 101. But it didn't fool me. Then today, yes again on the 101, saw a blue Maser coupe. | ||

Maybe it was a 360. I saw those two loop roll bars and thought it was a 550 but since it had the F1 then I thought 575. I guess it was a 360 if they don't make the 575 in Barchetta style. | ||

Silver 575 F1 Barchetta (or whtever the convertible is called) today in Malibu on PCH. Wayne you are too quick. I could not even edit the post fast enough. It could have been the 550 Barchetta but since it had F1 I thought those were going to the new 575s. | ||

Armen - It could have been. I was driving up from San Diego back to LA. I was a passenger and on the phone - so I dont know if I was at Huntington or a little further North. I pointed it out to the driver and I tried to listen. It was probably around 4pm. It looked like new. | ||

Probably not what your thinking, but if your into Guitar Music, try checking out Mauro Guiliani and his guitar concertos. He was an 18th century composer and contemporary of Mozart and Beethoven and his guitar concertos are just brilliant --lovely melodies and demanding technical passages for teh guitarist. Youll be whistling the themese for a week after you hear them! You should be able to find them cheaply at any Tower Records or equivalent. Let me know if you want anymore information?

I ask because I've been playing around with guitars my whole life and still haven't actually learned how to play the damned things. I actually own a Gibson Les Paul Custom. What a waste of a beautiful instrument! I need serious lessons. | ||

Jordan that would be cool (although I will probably never be able to play it). Wayne, just a guy at the local music store. I had not even met him until tonight. He seems pretty good. I'll keep you posted on my progress, if any. | ||

Hey! We've got some of them eye-talian cars out here in the 909 too! Spotted: Silver 360 Spider on the eastbound 210 FWY in Upland driving painfully slow in the middle of a near-empty freeway. Pulled up alongside to see what was up. Young spikey-haired guy in shades on a cell phone. Apparently too busy yapping to notice he was only doing 50 mph or so while everyone else was whipping past all around him at 75mph+. | ||
