    A white Porsche 997 GT3 driving North on the 280 near Palo Alto. It looked like a black Mustang SVT was coming up on it, maybe trying to persuade the GT3 to race? Didn't get to catch up to it since I had to exit, but it looked really nice.

    A few minutes ago, 360dragon called me to report an Ariel Atom on Sunrise Blvd. somewhere here in Sac...

    On my way home from his house at 5:15, I saw an Ardent Red Elise on Sunrise and 50, as well.

    As some of you may know, the Ferrari 360 Modena, in my eyes, should go down in Ferrari history as being one of the greatest designed cars of all time. The only thing holding it back from the title wouldbe it's production numbers. Well, today a tear came to my eye.

    I spotted batman-like 360 Modena driving down Hamilton Avenue in San Jose. Black exterior, black interior, black window tints, black headlight tints, and black tinted taillights. Stock exhaust? No way. It was like seeing the ultimate example of the 360's beauty. If the owner of the car I saw today is lurking the site, I only have one suggestion: get rid of the chrome wheels. You MUST slap on some all black powder-coated rims.

    Wow, that car was just beautiful. I am speechless.

    And I always see this "old", okay, middle-aged gentleman driving a red 360 Modena down Vine Street/Almaden Expressway. I swear, I saw the same person driving a red 360 Spider by Westmont High School. Always wearing a cap and sun-glasses.

    Which brings up that black 360 Spider I always see driving down Bascom Avenue, Winchester, and Hamilton Avenue.

    I am the official 360 spotter, I just can't get enough of the car.

    i saw one that fit that description parked in front of kraigen on el camino about a year ago. smoked head/tail lights, dark tints, chrome wheels. except the one thing that pissed me off was that he had replaced the ferrari badging on the fenders with black/silver skull & crossbones. i thought that was pretty lame, but it was definitely one of the sweetest ferraris i have seen to this day.

    Last Wednesday (the 3rd), after leaving Brian's (Rifledriver) shop, I spotted:

    - Red Mondial 8(?) coupe, exiting N/B 680 at Geary
    - Dark Red 250 Boano, S/B St. Helena Hwy just south of Yountville (in a light rain)

    "Ferrari? No, Volvo... no, Ferrari.. no.. Vol..no...no...Yes...no...yes... no..yes..yes.....no....YES! A Ferrari! Look honey, it's a Ferrari!!!! Whoa!!!"
