    Yesterday, saw an Orange Murci Roadster at an Exxon (I believe) on Westeimer. Can't remember which one, but near Nazar's. First time I've seen one in person.

    Saw a DeLorean as I arrived in Houston yesterday. It was silver with paper tags expiring on 3-20. Only the 3rd I have seen in person...Funny just because I was watching Back to the Future that morning before I left San Antonio. Wife saw it first.

    At about exit 718 on my way home from Houston to San Antonio, Saw a Red Porsche GT2 heading East on I-10 and a Yellow 911 around exit 708. Saturday night at an Olive Garden next to a movie theater, there was a clean Yellow Porsche 911....Besides the DeLorean, that's all I saw when in Houston.

    ...and so on.......

    Are you talking about the one that is on the right on Kirby before you hit Shepherd? I thought it was a silver. I don't think I've ever seen it out of that one parking spot.

    I don't think that looking out at your own driveway counts. That's definately an unfair advantage.
