    A beautiful nero/nero 599 GTB Fiorano. My wife had asked me to point out any Ferraris that I saw. Well over the last 5 to 6 weeks I have kept my eyes out. She has asked about a particular NSX that we have seen a couple of times, shocked when told it is a Honda...........but finally on Sunday afternoon. I pulled to the side, and motioned for the driver to pass me. He did and I told her proudly, now dear, THAT is a Ferrari.
    Her reply?
    Oh my God, how beautiful. We were going the same way so we followed for about 5 or 6 miles. I cannot believe that he would go for a drive when the skys were so full of rain.

    Very cool!
    I wonder who owns it?
    I have also seen an SLR 722 in Wichita, although SLR's are rather rare, the 722 version is extremely rare.

    There are a total of 24 SLR 722's in the US, and that's all there will ever be. Quite rare!

    WHAT? I heard that guy drives like Michael Schumacher....only in a lambo, not a ferrari.
    It must have been the same time I saw two Vipers blow by it at about 140+. Now who could that have been?...looked like Lemans in Kansas!

    Nice. You used to have a 348 right? I used to see one fairly frequently at Tommy's, but I don't see it anymore. Of course I don't see a red Gallardo parked out front either...

    I did have a white 344 with black rims. Is this what you saw? I do have a red Gallardo now. It is exciting to see people getting into the exotics. I am hoping my friend will trade his 911 in for a F or L car.

    Yes, I've seen your Gallardo when you met the fellas at Homeland before the car show downtown. A very nice example sir...

    No biggie, didn't know it was me either... Was thinking I'd see you at Last Run in Ark City...If you haven't been in Pettey's Countach you'll have to have him take you for a spin on Cowley 20. It's a riot.

    I wonder how you know?
    I was guessing 140+ going by me....but then it was all a blur. The sound was AWESOME!
    We need to get together again soon.

    The 599 was spotted parked at Jimmy's Diner on North Rock Road Saturday morning. I seemed to remember the Boardwalk license plate holder when my wife and I followed it a week ago.
