    F430 red "Ferre" for a tag, silver porsche, red viper and Land rover in a pack coming from what I can only assume is the crescent classic. They were running north towards Joplin, MO on 71. They were also sporting the buffalo run decals of the event I myself am attending next month.

    dodge viper heading south on 270, i think the cop that was sitting about a mile up from the viper might have had a few words for him...:)

    There were two deloreons on the plaza on saturday night, the one with 'leap' pictured previously and one all specced out like the one from back to the future. It had all the leds and colored wires, NO I did not check for a flux capacitor...

    also saw a black sl65, wow what a car.

    Nice red 328 yesterday on 291 near Lee's Summit. Or 308. How can I tell the difference at a glance?

    For me it's mainly the nose but there are also a few other subtle differences. 308's are...pointier.

    Got passed by a Shelby Cobra top down speeding along K10 before 435 at 7:50AM yesterday. Also saw a Testarossa parked at the plaza yesterday, not the one that was in the Buffalo Run.

    This is a nice sight we saw on our way out of Viper Days (+/- 50 Vipers itself) at Heartland Park Saturday. A covered transporter that just happened to have a yellow F430 peeking out on the top level. It was at Gate D and headed to Arizona for the winter. Not sure why they stopped where they did but they unloaded the old Ford under it and refilled something in the engine. The third F430 I have seen in Topeka. (none of which were local :()

    Saw the back end of a red 355 on Tennessee St in Lawrence as I was parking the car tonight. I did not hear the trademark Ferrari sound though but that may be due to a combination of the radio being loud and me not expecting a Ferrari to drive past. Maybe a replica? Real? Will keep looking out for it...

    Wichita KS. Guy who owns the business down the street from mine just picked up his 599. First one I've seen and I'm guessing, one of the first in KS.

    Pretty car!

    Impressive. It's the first one I've heard of in US (other than press cars)

    LOL...well that kind of rules out a 599 then doesn't it? I drove by on an errand a little bit ago and snapped a horrible pic with my cell phone. It must be a 612. I'll stop in later if I have time and get a closer look to confirm, but it would seem it's just my old eyes playing tricks on me that made me think 599.

    Followed a very nice RHD 50's or 60's Rolls Royce through the cold drizzle tonight on the KU campus. MO plates, only one occupant.

    Couple good spots today:
    Saw a red/white Ford GT going westbound on 70 near New Florence, MO at 8:30am. Then saw what was most likely the same red/white Ford GT going eastbound on 70 outside of St. Louis at 1:30.
    Also saw a 2000ish yellow Esprit going eastbound between Lawrence and KC on K10 at about 4:00.
    And a Prowler and SRT10 Viper mixed in there too.

    Just followed a red supercharged 996 Carrera Cab (JoCo) down Mass St in Lawrence. He left it in first the whole way probably to hear that supercharger. Also saw a black 993 Carrera (MO) parked with whale tail up.
